Launchers management
SUMMARY
I think Quicklaunch needs few more features and fixes.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a panel to a side of the desktop.
2. Add Quicklauncher components to it.
3. Add launchers to the Quicklauncher components.
OBSERVED RESULT
The management of launchers on the Quicklaunchers is problematic.
On one hand, every component has displayed document-like icons around it, on
the container panel until the system reboot. Those icons had various sizes.
EXPECTED RESULT
Those document-like icons should not appear at all.
Launchers are expected to be added by drag and drop from the Plasma menu or by
a dedicated context menu on the Quicklauncher.
The following features are of interest in order to make it more user-friendly
too:
- add an option to display icons only
- add an option to display the icons horizontally
- add an option to adapt its size to the contained launchers when displayed
horizontally too
- add an option to drag and drop launchers
- add an option to assign an icon to the Quicklaunchers similarly to the Folder
View component
- add an option to expand the Quicklaunchers on mouse hover
Look at the Plasma 5 Tiled Quicklauncher in order to assess those features
(that component is great, maybe too complex, so not all its features are
described here, but it is good for reference).
