KDE Plasma 5.10, Varsayılan Olarak Basit, Gerektiğinde Güçlü

30 Mayıs 2017 Salı

Bugün KDE, kullanıcılara sloganımıza uygun bir deneyim sunmak için paket genelinde yeni özelliklerle masaüstü Plasma 5.10’umuzun yeni bir özellik sürümünü yayınladı: varsayılan olarak basit, gerektiğinde güçlü.

Panel Task Manager

Task Manager, the list of applications in the panel, has gained options for middle mouse click such as grouping and ungrouping applications.

Buradaki diğer birkaç iyileştirme şunları içerir:

• Places jump list actions in File manager launchers (e.g. pinned Dolphin in Task Manager now lists user places)
• The icon size in vertical Task Managers is now configurable to support more common vertical panel usage patterns
• Improved app identification and pinning in Task Manager for apps that rely on StartupWMClass, perl-SDL-based apps and more

Folder View Is the New Default Desktop

After some years shunning icons on the desktop we have accepted the inevitable and changed to Folder View as the default desktop which brings some icons by default and allows users to put whatever files or folders they want easy access to. Many other improvements have been made to the Folder View include:

• Spring Loading in Folder View making drag and drop of files powerful and quick
• More space-saving/tighter icon grid in Folder View based on much user feedback
• Improved mouse behavior / ergonomics in Folder View for icon dnd (less surprising drop/insert location), rectangle selection (easier, less fiddly) and hover (same)
• Revamped rename user interface in Folder View (better keyboard and mouse behavior e.g. closing the editor by clicking outside, RTL fixed, etc.)
• Massively improved performance in Folder View for initial listing and scrolling large folders, reduced memory usage
• Many other bug fixes and UI improvements in Folder View, e.g. better back button history, Undo shortcut support, clickable location in the headings, etc.
• Unified drop menu in Folder View, showing both file (Copy/Move/Link) and widget (creating a Picture widget from an image drop, etc.) drop actions
• It is now possible to resize widgets in the desktop by dragging on their edges and moving them with Alt+left-click, just like regular windows

Her Yerde Yeni Özellikler

There are so many other improvements throughout the desktop, here's a sample:

• Kilit ekranında medya kontrolleri
• Askıya alındığında müziği duraklat
• Software Centre Plasma Search (KRunner) suggests to install non-installed apps
• File copying notifications have a context menu on previews giving access to actions such as open containing folder, copy, open with etc
• Improved plasma-windowed (enforces applet default/minimum sizes etc)
• 'desktop edit mode', when opening toolbox reveals applet handles
• Performance optimizations in Pager and Task Manager
• 'Often used' docs and apps in app launchers in addition to 'Recently used'
• Panel icons (buttons for popup applets, launcher applets) now follow the Icons -> Advanced -> Panel size setting in System Settings again, so they won't take up too much space, particularly useful for wide vertical panels
• Revamped password dialogs for network authentication
• The security of the lock screen architecture got reworked and simplified to ensure that your system is secured when the screen is locked. On Linux systems the lock screen is put into a sandbox through the seccomp technology.
• Plasma's window manager support for hung processes got improved. When a window is not responding any more it gets darkened to indicate that one cannot interact with it any more.
• Support for locking and unlocking the shell from the startup script, useful especially for distributions and enterprise setups
• Audio Volume applet has a handy menu on each device which you can use to set is as default or switch output to headphones.

Geliştirilmiş dokunmatik ekran desteği

Dokunmatik Ekran Desteği birkaç yönden geliştirildi:

• Kilit ekranında Sanal Klavye
• Oturum açma ekranında Sanal Klavye
• Dokunmatik ekran kenarı kaydırma hareketleri
• Sol ekran kenarı varsayılan olarak pencere değiştirmeye ayarlıdır
• Kenar kaydırma hareketiyle otomatik gizlenen panelleri göster

Wayland ile Gelecek İçin Çalışmak

We have put a lot of work into porting to new graphics layer Wayland, the switch is coming but we won't recommend it until it is completely transparent to the user. There will be improved features too such as KWin now supports scaling displays by different levels if you have a HiDPI monitor and a normal DPI screen. Keyboard layout support in Wayland now has all the features of X11:

• Layout switcher in the system tray
• Per layout global shortcut
• Switch layout based on a policy, either global, virtual desktop, application or per window
• IPC interface added, so that other applications can change layout.

Plymouth Boot Splash Seçimi

A new System Settings module lets you download and select boot time splashes.

Bundle Packages

Experimental support for forthcoming new bundle package formats has been implemented. Discover software centre has gained provisional backends for Flatpak and Snappy. New plugin xdg-desktop-portal-kde has added KDE integration into Flatpak packaged applications.

Support for GNOME’s Open Desktop Ratings, replacing old Ubuntu popularity contest with tons of already existing reviews and comments.
