A note on this: We need this kind of feedback fed back into Plasma. I know it's mainly my fault right now for not putting enough time into it, but I fear by monkey-patching out this kind of features, we're making the delta bigger to a point where the subsurface team ends up maintaining a set of mobile components that have diverged from the Plasma upstream ones. That's not a situation that I consider worthwhile spending my time on, and I think it would be a net-loss to subsurface in the long run. Basically everything under qt-mobile/qml/mobileocomponents needs to be done upstream. I'd actually prefer not patching it in subsurface, but feeding the patches directly through me (or even better the [email protected]). I'd rather not have to sift through commits that need to be disentangled and merged upstream in the limited time I can spend on this. A rude way to go about this is: patching is fair game, but I'll overwrite from upstream without checking, so we all learn the hard way. (I can see how that's not desirable for some. :-)) Also feedback about the interaction of the overall navigation needs to be fed back to the usability team at KDE that is working on it. (I'm happy to forward feedback to our usability people working on this.) The first version with the drawer button may not have been perfect, but us monkey-patching it makes it hard to maintain and impossible to keep track of improvements upstream. That means we'll end up with a half-assed prototype solution patched to death without real usability expertise applied. Sorry if I sound like a buzzkill. -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
