You can correct the aspect ratio by resizing with the control key pressed. Thank you, I didn't know that. It seems to me that making the widget fit the object's aspect ratio would be a good idea. good workaround for insiders, but the best would be an exclusive option (radio buttons): o fit width (vertical scrolling if the element is too high) o fit height (horizontal scrolling if the element is too wide) o fit width and height (fixed aspect ratio) the square as standard aspect ratio and the strg-resizing is a rather random and counter-intuitive workaround: also good would be a text field for a custom stylesheet which can be used e.g. to make the background of the element transparent or to remove borders. I agree with the other posters. The square as standard aspect ratio and the strg-resizing is a rather random and counter-intuitive. Other Plasmoids I use are not defaulting to a certain aspect ratio that can be overridden by strg-resize. Automatically detecting the correct aspect ratio and size would be cool! SVN commit 1217394 by sebas: Refactor kgraphicswebslice With this larger update, we tie down the whole setup process, and waste a lot less cycles resizing. In particular: - zoom method: zooms to specific slice - less unnecessary resizing (still room for improvement) - make switching between preview and slice mode work - fix slice geometry for previews and slice modes - cache geometries: faster and less dicking around with zoomFactor - Make applet freely resizable: no fixed aspect mode anymore - Resizing is also a lot faster now Cleanup pending.

Thanks for your work and improving the web slice widget. Looking forward to see it land in my distro. :) SVN commit 1217531 by sebas: Usability and performance improvements webslice applet In particular: - Turn the lineedit into an editable combobox showing some of the more interesting elements (those with an id attached) - Add a reload button to load a newly selected page, repopulate the elements dropdown after load is finished - Show the full page zoomed out while configuring, and paint a mask highlighting the currently selected element over it - Fix cyclic resizing problems that lead to huge performance problems while resizing - No more fixed aspect ratio (#221235) - Compress resize events per 100ms to make resizing smoother - Fix picking up config changes by the slice - Cache slice geometry, by basing the geometries on the original geometry of the elements, we get much more precise viewports, it also saves a lot of dicking around with the current zoomFactor - (No string changes) backported from trunk r1217392 - r1217400, OK'ed on plasma-devel BUG:221235 FIXED-IN:4.6.1 M +174 -100 kgraphicswebslice.cpp M +60 -31 kgraphicswebslice.h M +92 -66 plasma/webslice.cpp M +9 -5 plasma/webslice.h M +24 -6 plasma/websliceConfig.ui WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1217531 |
