Bug#907593: Buster: LXQT: No feedback when an app is launched
This bug can be closed if so desired. I went back to KDE so the issue of lesser importance for me.
Bug#907593: Buster: LXQT: No feedback when an app is launched
Not a bug, it's intentional and not implemented. Maybe upstream should rethink. Re start times - just install preload, if whished, maybe that helps. At least it might be a good idea to add a recommend in the lxqt metapackage. Cheers Alf
Bug#907593: Buster: LXQT: No feedback when an app is launched
Installed LXDE for comparison so more info: 1. LXDE does provide provide feedback when apps are launched. 2. LXDE launches and shutsdown apps a lot quicker than LXQT does. The difference is very noticible (2-3 seconds for LXQT in some cases, e.f. Firefox, compared to a fraction of a second for LXQT). Regards,
Bug#907593: Buster: LXQT: No feedback when an app is launched
Package: lxqt Version: 27 For some apps (e.g. firefox) it takes a couple of seconds between when the Quick Launch icon is pressed and when the app actually opens its window. Other apps may open relatively quick, in a fraction of a second. Currently LXQT gives no indication that an app is being launched and may lead to confusion, giving the impression that nothing is happening and thus confusing the user into pressing the quick launch icon again. Then, a couple of seconds later, two windows/instances of the same app will open. Generally, this is not what I want. LXQT should give an indication that an app is being launched, KDE does this by changing the mouse cursor during the launch phase and LXQT should probably do something similar. Thanks
