Description Bobby 2008-04-01 11:28:40 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          GCC 4.2-24 
OS:                Linux

Kickoff has improved a lot in looks and feel, it's very usable but it still needs a little more eye-candy (the same for the panel).
Is it possible to make the icons zoom a little bigger and animate a bit (like in Kasbar maybe) when one hover over them with the mouse? Could it then be possible to adjust the ratio of zoom and animation or for people who don't like it to turn it off?
I like Kickoff but compared to the rest of KDE 4 it still looks too 'simple' (in the sense of eye-candy).

In KDE4.2, Kickoff uses the Plasma theme, and animate the switch between tabs and categories :)

In KDE SC 4.4 kickoff has a new animation for opening.
