Description Janet 2011-08-19 10:51:26 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

When I use the widget-frame to display the "picture of the day" from flickr, wikimedia etc. the context menu entry "open picture" does not do anything (I also tried doubleclicking but nothing happens). The picture is available in ~/.kde/share/apps/plasma_engine_podt/. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Use e.g. the flickr picture of the day option for the frame widget. Try to open the shown picture (rightclick, open).

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
As the picture is available locally it should at least be displayed, as any other local picture, with your default picture viewer. The even more "natural feeling" way (what I expected when I tried to open the picture) would be to open the flickr page in your default browser, so that you can see the picture in full size.

I can confirm it. When I use a static local picture or a slideshow from a given folder the pictures do open in my picture viewer when I use the "view picture" menu item in the frame widget. But it does not work with remote ressources like picture of the day from fickr or wikimedia. The "view picture" menu item does nothing in that case.
