Description Andrey Rakhmatullin 2009-05-23 17:54:32 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package

It seems that dict plasmoid always uses dict.org (as a default server for plasma/dataengines/dict/). It is possible to run dictd locally and the applet should have means to use the local server.

Not yet done? Is it so hard because dict.org is embedded?

Hello!

This feature request was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this feature request is already implemented in Plasma 5, or is no longer applicable.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this feature request. If the requested feature is still desired but not implemented in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
