As my first contribution to KDE, I decided to work on the (only) dragon player junior job, because it looked pretty simple. I'm supposed to add a status-bar toggle to the settings menu: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288323
I tried modifying the code, adding a statusbar toggle by modifying the menubar toggle code (using KStandardAction)- (PATCH<http://pastebin.com/9zj2E8Vj> 1). But it just wouldn't work. Then I tried adding it like a normal KAction, using an the Object name I declared in the .rc file (<Action name="options_show_statusbar"/>), but it just wouldn't show up in the settings menu, until I tried using an existing name, "unique", and then it magically appeared. And another strange thing, when I randomly tried ObjectName as "show_status", (PATCH2 <http://pastebin.com/TnR4Sz4h>), it appeared in the Toolbar. I don't quite understand how, though. Is it some standard KDE thing? Could someone please help me through my first patch?
