You're right. There's a notification. But in most KDE applications you can configure the notification with a lot of options (sound, speech, start program, popup, highlight, log). Not everything is useful for this plasmoid but it would really be nice if some of the options are avaiable and could be configured. And the best would be doing this the standard KDE way :) - Mar 19 2013

It would really be nice to configure these notifications in standard KDE style.

Nice plasmoid. - Mar 19 2013

I forgot some stuff:

Another name changed: it's right within the config for the group. It's now "Tabs" instead of "tabs" and "CurrentIndex" instead of "currenttab" (later one is not very important).

The entry should then look similar to this:
[Containments][404][Groups][3]
geometry=861,37,313,314
plugin=tabbing
zvalue=2

[Containments][404][Groups][3][Configuration]
CurrentIndex=0
Tabs=Wetter,Musik,Sonstiges
- Jul 23 2010

This is dedicated to everybody who upgrades from an older version to 0.2:

There's a change in the TabbingGroup (so all other's should have no problem) which changes the name of some config entries.
To fix it open .kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc and change all "SiteIndex" to "TabIndex".

Should then look this way:
[Containments][404][Applets][371][GroupInformation]
Group=3
Position=-60.083279967308,-7.32438063621521
TabIndex=0

That should fix it (at least worked for me)

I tried to create a Containment but failed. I saw my mistake when I tried your containment and realised how far I'm away from how plasma really works and is meant to be used.

But sure, if I have a good idea and some free time I'll send you some code or ask you questions :)

Is there any way I can convince you to create a tabbed group? like having a group with a tabbar and on each tab there are different plamoids.

I like having a nice and clean desktop so I put all my plasmoids on my dashboard (separate dashboard). but the space there is limited cause there's no activities for the dashboard.

I'm stunned by your work, it's seems to be well coded is modular and extend-able. (something I failed so far) - Jun 18 2010

And stupid me allways tried git checkout (like svn co).

Anyway: it works. I restarted plasma and it was still configured. great work :) - May 30 2010

My try to get the files from the repository failed... I thought there might be an easy way without knowing git... - May 29 2010

I'm sorry for my harsh words... I did not even see there was a new release. I checked the Changelog and noticed that my "bug" was not fixed yet and - yeah it was late :)

I try to try the newest git version ;) - May 29 2010

Hello? anybody out there? Is this project still maintained? It's really good and I found nothing similar.

I really would appreciate a fix to the resource bug. - May 27 2010

After a restart all resources are shown/selected instead a of the subset I choosed before the restart.

Except for that: great work. very good. - Apr 20 2010

1. text
The text (name of the ) is annyoing if the icon is placed in a panel placed on the left or right. It doesn't fit there. An option to disable it would be great.

Alternatively an option to change the icon to differentiate between different tags maybe.

I have disabled the text by changing three lines of the code (I like this on Python)

2. startupfail
The plasmoid fails to load on startup. if I restart plasma the plasmoid works...
.xsession-errors shows that the connection to qdbus->nepomuk fails (not yet started) and then a not correctly initialised iterator is used.

It's dark, but not without light, it's fresh but still decent. Colorfull but not annoying or candy like.
It contains two known themes (earth and fedora logo) but with a new flair.

Very good balance.
=> really nice work - Dec 30 2009
