> Generally close puttons on tab wont work, because you can hit with mouse1 it by accidentalyy
Our close buttons, both the KTabWidget/KTabBar ones and our own code for the treelist, implement a delayed activation scheme to prevent accidental closing, i.e. the close button will only become functional once the pointer has been above it for a certain amount of time, indicated by saturation changes in its rendition.
Another thing that comes to mind, actually, is that KDE tab bars use middle mouse to drag tabs - I find the prospect of accidental closing during borked drag attempts somewhat scary, especially considering my own defective middle mouse button on my Logitech MX1000 :) Konqueror users are used to paste current link with MMB, Firefox users are used to close the tabs. At this time, change the behaviour of MMB on tabs is insane. At most it could be added an option to change this. But I'm not convinced. Well as I suggested, giving atleast a option to hotkey editor, that you can use mousebuttons as a hotkey, would then make users happier, who are used with firefox to open and close tabs. This way konversations would get more easy to use as this program dont need link pasteing when doing something with tabs, and the default close hotkey is 2 button way, and at the moment I find it easiest to rightklick and select close. If I could enable middlebutton to close tab on konversation, it would make my life just a bit easier than that. SVN commit 803040 by hein: Add option to close tabs using middle-mouse, akin to what Konqueror offers in KDE 4. Patch done by JC Torres and me (ViewTree part). Defaults to off.
