Issue 37

Sometimes it takes 2.5 years to write two lines of code :)
Make finish button default at the last page of app wizard.

Ohh my, what a dilema: Three kind translators has pointed out typos in the code. If I dont fix them they will fell that I dont listen, if I do fix them I will break the message freeze.

Sorry I chose the later option.

Change the "Use antialiasing" checkbox to tristate, defaulting to nochange that doesn't write out any fontconfig changes. Some distros have rather complex setup for fonts and changing anything in the fonts module overrode those settings. Since the default doesn't write out any changes, already made user changes are also preserved.

BTW, Helio, you have not forwardported any of those "Setting module to use system defaults" commits, have you?

Fix bug nr 1 of the most hated list (although i seem to be the only voter). If you have multiple tabs open and in each tab a message from a different mailbox, changing tabs crashes Mailody as the pointer to the message data has been lost because of the mailbox switch.

This fix prevent the original pointer to be deleted when it is in use by the view. When the view is done with it, it will be deleted.

Fix Greek symbols psi and omega.

Improved cover images handling for Various Artists. Patch by Tobias Knieper.

This patch changes the behavior of storing covers of compilations fetched from
amazon. the covers are now hashed by an empty artist (as they were already looked up by findAmazonImage()). This patch does not affect the lookup of directory covers.

Adds a timeout to a dcop client call(). This helps amarok recover if kded is fubar'ed.

This closes a potential race condition when recursing directories.
The code was written to operate on a directory path string. This means that potential exploits could leverage that to gain advantage.
This change opendir's the path early on and attempts to use a file descriptor instead.

There is no known way to leverage this race condition so the commit should be uncontroversial.

Improve error handling in MSN plugin to use notifications instead of
messages box.

To do this I needed to introduce 1 new string(and I could introduce more but I stepped out) and do BIC changes in Kopete::Utils.

Reload tray icons when the icon theme changes at runtime.

Fixing a unicode bug
Fixing infinite theme reloading when a theme is changed

Fix two shortcuts using Ctrl+N, new round is Ctrl+R now

Fix 58 test cases by binding range variables when evaluating to a sequence receiver.

Fix 30-40(?) tests by implementing the attribute axis(at least partly) and serialize attributes properly. Also some adjustments to the root() function.

mine and Alexander's patch to make it possible to move toolviews between docks in Simple IDEAl together with store/restore of position between restarts + some refactoring of newui + the odd bugfix

* Added the painting/svgviewer example

* Added the desktop/screenshot example

Costa Rica, Belize and Cuba maps by Laurent Garnier

Added possibility to show image comments.

Now slideshow interval can be set below 1000 ms (min 100 ms).

Add hidden configuration option "Open Images in the Same Window" which, when enabled, forces "File / New", "File / Open ..." and "File / Open Recent" to never open a new window.

Given that it violates the KDE UI standards, I don't think it should have a user-visible config option - do you agree or disagree?

Testing has been limited due to my checkout of kdelibs 4.0 having far too many bugs.

Technical details:
- Removed kpMainWindow::shouldOpenInNewWindow() and inlined the code as the method would be too confusing if this configuration option was on

Support for the feature:

1. BUG: 125116

2. Frank Wieduwilt, Linux Magazine Issue #44 (Jul '04) p77:

"Unfortunately, the program [KolourPaint] opens up each image in a separate window. This tends to clutter up the screen while working with multiple images. The developers have promised to change this in the imminent 1.1 version, however."

3. And the feature was also silented requested by me :)

* Add a beautiful gradiented progress bar type thing for the cpu percentage and the memory percentage.
* Get the total amount of memory, use that to calculate the memory percentage an app uses

KControl replacement Plugin: for KBFX

Show the CPU usage as just "32%" "5%" and "0.4%", so to just 1 or 2 s.f.
As suggested by a "ben" on dot.kde.org

Complete the implementation of Nepomuk Backend.
Now listing works really well!

Wider skin experiment

Added a little KDE Daemon module that provides a DBus interface to libKMetaData. Now it is possible to set and get properties bia DBus. I am not sure if this will actually prove useful but it was very easy and
provides another testing ground.

- use HAL for CPU frequency management (instead of /sys files)
- display current policy in tooltip (dynamic, powersave, performance)

Finally implement the most basic stuff of the incidence printing style. The whole date/time/recurrence/reminder box is missing, attachments are not listed yet, subitems are not printed, but apart from that everything works.

Yeah, not a lot of stuff left that's working, but it still looks quite decent already

New addresslabel widget, basically a kactivewidget, but then based on a qlabel, with additional signals when a link is clicked. Based on a widget from Waldo.

This means het the first 100 pixels of the headers are shown, is it bigger then a scrollbar will be shown. If less then the widget reduces in height.

Kexi allows to assign much more types of actions to form buttons

Forms
- action selection dialog:
-- moved "Macros" and "Scripts" to "category" list, which also supports opening tables/queries/forms, running macros/scripts
-- added "Action type" column so it is possible to assign printing and opening in objects design view
-- added "Execute form's action" category

Main Window
- Project Navigator:
-- double/single clicking on executable objects (macro, script) executes them

2.0: merged

More work on making it possible to insert flake shapes in Krita: synchronize layer additions to the image with the shape hierarchy in the document. Adding a shape still causes a crash, though.

change the viewbar a bit to look more sleek and not so high

Added a shapes sample script that just adds a text-shape.

Refactor paragraph borders painting+layout.
I moved the calculation of which borders to have to be a layout-time thing.

This has the effect that multiple paragraphs can share one border, so you won't see lines between paragraphs anymore and non-continues lines are drawn correctly now.

o initial commit for using flake in kpresenter. It still does not much but it is a start :-)

Add snap-to-grid action.
I made it a bool per view. Works pretty good :)

The javascript invert.js works now.

Regarding speed on a 300x300 pixel image the invert.(py|rb|js) scripts took;
1. ruby = 3secs (the clear winner :-)
2. python = 7secs (without the call-cache improvments by Cyrille that may double the performance)
3. javascript = 20secs (uh...)

Add icons to the viewbar
still need to tweak it though

Implement drag&drop from the shapeSelector to any canvas.
With this change you can easilly add items to the document by drag & drop of the template.

Create the viewbar in KoView (only done if it's used) and start using it in kivio

Only display cover images in the Collection Browser when the album is expanded.

Experimental. Less pretty, but at least it doesn't cause lag.

Add "Queue Track" also to Filebrowser context menu, for consistency's sake.

When an album cover is fetched, immediately update the CollectionBrowser item with the new pixmap if the item is expanded. If the item is not expanded, it does not update so as to keep the CD icon.

This feature is safe even if the item has been removed from the CollectionBrowser before saving the album cover (due to a scan, for instance).

Allow setting individual tracks to be shown/not shown under Various Artists. This makes it less confusing; previously you had to select the album, making it hard for users to find.

After the lib now also the GUI handles DVD overburn.

Add local shortcut for Play/Pause. I've set the default to the space key, as I find that really handy in Codeine.

Receive and display avatar from Telepathy

Add Authentication dialog for VPN connections

Add storage management for vpn connections
Check for the existence of keys before accessing them in KWallet

make use of the new vpn connection managment

add pptp plugin

Columns in main view are now configurable!

Added option to use a different proxy then the default KDE proxy for HTTP trackers

New mail 22x22 actions

Zoom actions for Koffice

Add default theme files.
Note: default directory should be removed later on.

Backgrounds resources can now be localized via a .desktop file description. Terrain is prepared for easy handling of plain color and gradient backgrounds, as well as SVG (already supported).

Also rename and move Background class to libkmahjongg, so it can be shared with KShisen. Welcome KMahjonggBackground!

first steps towards SVG graphics

changed background grass to SVG

added ball SVG and improved general SVG code

implement 3D rotation around arbitrary axis vector

Massively clean up the paint code for the signal plotter. This will allow for optimisations and expansion

Load the SVG for the signal plotter only on demand. This increases startup time and memory with the sacrifice of a slight delay when switching tabs

Data from client is now treated as a bytearray, not converted to a qstring. This saves about 30% of the cpu when parsing an answer

* Switch to using QByteArray rather than QString for most input stuff. This is cleaner design wise, and slightly faster
* Change to only one timer per page. This is a bit cleaner, and I don't think changing each widget's timer is actually that useful. This allows for all the widgets to be updated in one log, which looks nicer on the eye

Fix updating the system address book without reloading the whole thing.
Also introduce a memory optimisation. It is a bit of a hack but can be disabled. The loading of the System Address Book is dependent on the application name. KMail, Kontact and KAddressbook are allowed to load the SAB by default. Other apps that use the standard address book will not load the SAB or the resource's cache.

This reduces load times and memory footprint. If the SAB is needed the app name can be added to the list in the resource config, in key "SystemAddressBookWhiteList".

Enable tiled SVG backgrounds using brushes. Result is a nice boost in
performance when displaying the initial screen and resizing the game.

Change default bell sound effect in the Konsole terminal from KDE_Beep.ogg to the considerably less irritating KDE_Beep_Connect.ogg

Asterisks on passwords be gone! I for one welcome our new bullet overlords.

I've tested this patch on 3.5.5 with several different KDE applications and it even behaves fine with KDEs own password classes. Approved by Maxim. I wonder if it's worth a forward port, since tronical contemplated a move to QCommonStyle for Qt 4.3.

kdecore doesn't need libqt3support anymore - yay!
(and the code that linked only to kdecore has been updated for 1+ week already)

BTW, before kdeui can drop libqt3support there's a lot of porting (away from KListBox in particular) to be done in kdeui.

Make the SVG renderer shared among all the plotter widgets.
This does mean that we can't have different svg's for different widgets, and this sucks. But each svgrenderer took up about 1MB of memory

"rewrite" of phonon-xine to put all calls using a xine_stream_t object into a separate thread. This is a solution to the deadlocks in the old xine backend.

Big changes to the way we parse emails. The new method is much more sensible, robust and easier to read.

`qdbus org.kde.krunner /MainApplication quit` became annoying to type. i figured i could make an alias for it or just plop down all 38 LOC it took to recreate my beloved dcopquit in dbus form. given that dcopquit simply evaporated from kdelibs after being part of kde for years, i figure there's no harm in putting this as part of the runtime.

i even put a couple of probably superfluous options in there just to inflate the line count and ameloriate the code for those who might kvetch about it not being generic enough ;)

p.s. QtDBus is a pleasure to use for these things. luv, me.

after laying in bed with t for a bit it occured to me that dbusquit was not the best name. kquitapp hides the technical detail (so if dbus goes away, we don't repeat the loss of the binary name like we did with dcopquit) and is more obvious as to what it does

Each plugin now provides a test to decide if it should be enabled in the print dialog.

Unfortunately, it doesn't quite work as expected for the Print Incidence because the number of selected incidences isn't set until after the dialog is created.

start of a plugin system for actions on the whole contact, not only properties. experimental context principle

Compile fix for Krita Compile fix for Krita & more work towards flakifying krita more work towards flakifying krita

Let's get our Swedish straight shall we? :)

Add a bunch of icons so I don't have to search so long every time :)

begin gst-0.10 port

Change shortcut for Go To Current Track (in playlist) to Ctrl+J (because any shortcut involving Enter is not a great idea). Also, make the shortcut work (by plugging it into and unplugging it from a temporary menu).

move knetworkmanager to extragear

Fix grammar error. If I'm going to blogwhine about it, I may as well fix it too. Unless, of course, you think that winning KPat deserves only a single gratulation.
