Bug ID: 467450
Summary: Implement spatial window positioning
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: emir_s...@icloud.com
CC: notm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
First of all, a must-read: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2003/04/finder/
During the last decade and more, browser-like file browser navigation has
become the norm. But there are still folks, that cannot work effectively with
this type of navigation. To accommodate these folks' workflows, Dolphin and
Plasma Shell could use a "Spatial Mode". Maybe a System Settings entry can both
toggle settings for these two applications.
In this mode:
1. A specific folder can only be open in one instance and at its specific
location
2. Dolphin menus and the Plasma Desktop should provide spatial access to all
devices and network locations
3. The Desktop contents should not be available in a separate Dolphin window,
except the file pickers
4. Dolphin windows will not accommodate any type of location bar. For accessing
these locations, see 2
