Description Marcel Partap 2005-12-05 01:49:36 UTC

Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.5 (RC1), Kubuntu Package 4:3.5-rc1-0ubuntu0breezy1 )
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-9-386

I liked the previous behaviour better where the K menu would just come up at the mouse position on pressing ALT+F1.. also you manually have to hide the panel again if you didn't mean to bring it up, and as the maximized windows get resized and the animation rolls it really steals more CPU time then neccessary.

Kicker is currently unmaintained, you can look to your distribution for help, however.

Well this same wish still applies to the plasma panel though...

Kicker is no more mantained and all bugs/wishes will not be fixed/implemented in KDE3. A list of the most interesting/unresolved issues which is still valid for KDE4 has been created. Before reopening old kicker bugs on KDE4 Plasma, please try the new KDE 4.3.1, check the current behaviour and, only if you find new bugs or if you need a particular feature, open a new bug report.

Remember that KDE 4 is a full rewrite of KDE 3 so some old features will not be re-implemented because the behaviour has be changed a lot on some sides.

Thanks for the comprehension and enjoy the new KDE 4!
