Where can I find the source code? Nice, thanks! Somewhere in here, I imagine: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/tree/master/src/kcmkwin/kwinscreenedges BTW this is not actually a duplicate of Bug 419188; it's a separate thing. 2091662 5 jan.claussen10 2022-01-10 10:48:59 +0000 I suggested the exact same thing actually. I said "I a simple drop-down menu would suffice and the fullscreen application menu (forgot its name) should be the default setting, because it is the only one that is actually touch-friendly. " which is the launcher. Thanks for the link. I will have a look. Although I think it is not going to be so easy as there probably must be an launcher object present in Plasma, which would have to be made invisible. Not sure how that works. 2091666 6 jan.claussen10 2022-01-10 11:06:54 +0000 There seems to already be plans about that in kwinglobals.h: // TODO: Hardcoding is bad, need to add some way of registering global actions to these. // When designing the new system we must keep in mind that we have conditional actions // such as "only when moving windows" desktop switching that the current global action // system doesn't support. enum ElectricBorderAction { ElectricActionNone, // No special action, not set, desktop switch or an effect ElectricActionShowDesktop, // Show desktop or restore ElectricActionLockScreen, // Lock screen ElectricActionKRunner, // Open KRunner ElectricActionActivityManager, // Activity Manager ElectricActionApplicationLauncher, // Application Launcher ELECTRIC_ACTION_COUNT, };
