Looks fantastic with Cyrillic texts, I especially like the "д" arc. And, I see that it has minus-hyphen but could you kindly add at least the em dash, too? - Jul 15 2009

Does not seem to work properly with Cyrillic here, UTF-8 or CP1251. Great idea against procrastination though, I'm using it anyway :) - Jul 09 2009

Are these features? Maximize button reverses states if I (un)maximize a window by double clicking the titlebar, and then (un)maximize it by clicking the maximize button itself. Shading brings the window to all desktops (actually, this is useful but the shaded window pops all over the pager which is a little intrusive).

Oh, and the new fading in/out buttons for inactive windows are sweet :) - Jul 06 2009

Lol, the spam icon in KMail is classy. These are great icons, love them even more than the Tango set. Thanks for the port! - May 21 2009

Yay, many thanks for adding mouse wheel support, I really appreciate this feature! Would you also consider implementing drag and drop over the pager applet somewhere along the upcoming versions? - Mar 21 2009

Kaffeine Player

Video Apps by juergenk 179 comments

I really like the current version -- great performance, especially with newer, more taxing video codecs, works flawlessly with DVD menus, external subtitles are positioned downmost, occupying as little valuable space as possible, etc. -- but I am also looking forward for the KDE 4 port. Could we get at least a sneak preview of things to be, please? - Mar 05 2009

Also congratulations on coding the most loved plasmoid so far, great work! The Lights effect is mesmerizing :) May I request cycling through windows on mouse wheel? I kinda miss that. - Feb 28 2009

KDE 3.5 Themes by thibaut28 23 comments

I must say I find the domino style, along with the other parts of the theme, exceptional. Thanks for making it! - Jul 18 2008

EOS (6 wallpaper pack)

Wallpaper Other by vladstudio 3 comments

The blue one is great when toned down a bit with black vertical gradient and some vertical blending. Otherwise the peripheral fogginess makes me kind of dizzy. Don't get me wrong, actually EOS Blue is my primary wallpaper for almost three months now. Plus, it comes with KDE4 with NO signature and in SIX different sizes. No need for smug comments whatsoever. - May 11 2008

Karamba & Superkaramba by Lechio 40 comments

Awesome, actually :) But for some reason the Photos plug-in tries to load files from /mnt/hdb1/ts/ (files such as penguin, dsc00055, space-01, picture_006 and so on) even when I make an attempt to set the photopath to an existing one, or drag and drop some image/folder. From where can I change this? - Apr 12 2008

indywiki

Education Apps by mgogoulos 36 comments

Very convenient educational program, and quite easy to use, too. And the fact that some people question Wikipedia's reliability does not mean that all people shouldn't be free to access it and judge for themselves what's right and what's wrong.
I have some small problems with Indywiki. When I click "View->Remove Progress bar" (progress bar is removed) and then try turning it back on by clicking again "View->Remove Progress bar", Indywiki returns "QStatusBar::removeWidget(): Widget not found." I am using Python 2.5.1 and Qt 4.3.2 with the Oxygen GUI style, if that matters. Also, I think there should be a better way of choosing which Wikipedia site to use, outside of the limited list already present. - Jan 06 2008

Subtitle Composer

Video Apps by attendant 181 comments

Thank you so much! By the way, on Kubuntu 7.10 bootstrap.sh returns

*** YOU'RE USING automake (GNU automake) 1.10.
*** KDE requires automake 1.6.1 or newer
make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

I had to temporarily remove the latest automake in order to generate the configure script.

Could you add some configurable keyboard shortcuts for Show and Hide times, as well as for controlling video playback (play, pause, step back)? Thanks once again for taking the time to develop Subtitle Composer. - Nov 15 2007

Open Office Icons

Icon Sub-Sets by rowancompsciguy 3 comments

Nice and clean. Maybe you could add a set with the same icons, but using perspective. I just tried that, rotating an icon to the right by the vertical axis, and it looks kind of cool. That way the side bar to the left on each icon becomes more prominent, I don't know if this is good or bad though. - Aug 12 2007

QStarDict

Utilities by just-free-man 48 comments

0.05 is great. Could you implement a more convenient way of enabling/disabling dictionaries? For example, like the way it's done with the Word list pane? With 10+ dictionaries installed and enabled, it tends to display searches rather slow. - Aug 01 2007

Tasty Menu

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by mart 499 comments

Funny, it probably doesn't matter any more but I just found out that the Configure option from the context menu launches the configure dialog for KDesktop Menu, and vice versa, depending on which order the applets are being loaded.

Here's the other applet in question:
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/KDesktop+Menu?content=22605

Also, when right clicking an entry from the Favourites pane, the context menu seems to be wrongly positioned, and it removes the wrong entry. Plus, :) is it possible to avoid the residual image of the menu itself on Log Out? It appears to show up in some cases during the fade out/desaturation sequence, but not always, I don't have a clue why.

Once again, great menu, thank you for your time and effort. - Jul 30 2007

BooKreader

Office Apps by atlanter 36 comments

You can still use the openSUSE source packages. Just search for bookreader-0.1

Great application by the way, one of my all time favorites, too bad it's so hard to find. - Jun 08 2007

Same problem with Ark.
tar -xjvf ./kalsamix-1.0.0beta1.tar.bz2 extracted it fine. - Apr 24 2007

Tasty Menu

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by mart 499 comments

Try installing checkinstall from source. No such problems with Edgy and 1.6.1 here.

@mart: Great menu! I second the request for an option to rearrange the icons in Favourite applications, if possible. Thanks for sharing :) - Apr 07 2007

SMPlayer

Video Apps by rvm 494 comments

Is it possible to add an option in Preferences>GUI>Mouse>Left_click for moving the entire window on left click & hold? Great front end by the way, thanks for developing it. I'm barely keeping up compiling the new versions, which is cool :) - Apr 02 2007

KDM-Lines

KDM3 Themes by johngreenwood 25 comments

I am using your theme along with the Lines splash for the last couple of days and I don't plan on changing them soon :) Maybe you should make available versions with some other coloring too. Thanks for the excellent work. - Mar 10 2007

Icon Sub-Sets by HATRED 2 comments

After some fiddling, I'm using these with KNetStats, so thanks. I know it's a long shot but would you consider making/porting some other system tray icons matching the same theme? - Feb 20 2007

ClockMagick

Karamba & Superkaramba by vnwhite 58 comments

Nice one, thank you very much. Takes less than 1% CPU load without the shadows and the second hand, and it looks great.

Though it's a shame how something as "trivial" as one second hand tends to occupy 30% to 40% CPU time. This things kind of ruin the show in every more complex widget in superkaramba. /end whining - Dec 31 2006

Muzzle Flash KBFX buttons

Kbfx Startmenu by pvt14 11 comments

Hah, I was just going to suggest Ctrl+L or finding the Layers tab under the Dialogs menu. By the way, thanks for the interest, have fun constructing your own ultimate KBFX button. Cheers :) - Nov 19 2006

Muzzle Flash KBFX buttons

Kbfx Startmenu by pvt14 11 comments

Check the third screenshot again. For example, to the left of the "kubuntu_font" and "logo blue NORMAL" layers there is a little "Eye" icon which indicates these layers are currently in visible state. When the layer is not visible the "Eye" icon is not present, but when you move your mouse over its supposed position you'll see a small square button. Click on it to toggle layer visibility on. Click the "Eye" icon again to toggle layer visibility off.

Yeah, I know downloading something from kde-look.org is not supposed to be a full scale educational experience :) The problem is most of the time there's simply to much combinations bloating the size of the download (currently 467 KB as opposed to 54 KB for the actual template). - Nov 19 2006

Muzzle Flash KBFX buttons

Kbfx Startmenu by pvt14 11 comments

I just realised embedding the background within the final sets has been entirely unnecessary because KBFX supports transparency. Here's a way to have whatever panel decoration you like.

I've added another (kind of) enhanced "muzzle_flash_button_TEMPLATE.xcf" file. Open it with The GIMP and use it to create your new "normal.png", "pressed.png" and "hover.png" buttons by changing layers visibility (see the third screenshot). Note that you may need to install the Neuropol and Ubuntu Title fonts (for Neuropol, see README.TXT, as of Ubuntu Title - just install it with "sudo apt-get install ttf-ubuntu-title"). It's fairly simple this way, just a few clicks and a "Save as..." really.

Nevertheless, if you experience any difficulties making your own button, mail me (see README.TXT) a screenshot describing the way you'd like it to be, and I'll be happy to help :) - Nov 18 2006

Kbfx Startmenu by pvt14 11 comments

Sure, I'll do my best through the upcoming week. The only reason I didn't include one was because I couldn't decide whether it should contain the cogwheel besides being blue and with a K. - Nov 11 2006
