Description jobezone 2001-02-28 20:07:37 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kicker
Version:           KDE 2.1.0 
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Debian Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Could the icon zooming in kicker be made fluidly i.e. the icon really zooms instead of a bigger size popup?

Consider this request lightly as it's just for the improvement of useless eye candy.

Thanks and congrats with kde2.1!

Useless eyecandy, but very popular judging by all the OS X Dock 'clones' on kde-look.org

KSmoothDock (http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=6585) is one of those clones. This one includes 'regular' icon zooming much like Kickers icon zooming, but with animation.

Perhaps the code for icon zooming in KSmoothDock could be used as a near drop-in replacement for Kicker's?

Aaron tells for months that he has the code for this ready. :-|

i have one remaining race condition to work out/around and then i'll be committing it. this will definitely be in 3.4. only what, 3+ years after the original request? ;-)

icon zooming has been replaced with something different.

Comment 9 Gilles Schintgen 2004-12-23 18:29:57 UTC

Why is this wish marked invalid? I'd say it's quite valid...

Comment 10 Thiago Macieira 2004-12-23 18:38:48 UTC

See comment #8: it has been replaced with something different.
