Btw, why not make the tooltip appear like those pretty Plasma tooltips, e.g. the one for the volume control or the device notifier. Thank you for the bug report. As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists. If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved. |
Version: (using KDE 4.3.5) Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package It would be useful to have more detailed info in the tooltip that pops up when moving the mouse over the Akregator systray icon, rather than just "x new articles". For example, the tooltip could show something like the following: New Articles: NameOfFeed > TitleOfArticle (NameOfAuthor) NameOfFeed > TitleOfArticle (NameOfAuthor) TitleOfArticle (NameOfAuthor) NameOfFeed > [10 articles] Of course all of this should be shown as condensed as possible to prevent giant tooltips, e.g. limit TitleOfArticle to 30 characters, limit number of titles displayed per feed to 3, show NameOfAuthor in small font, etc. __Use Case:__ When running Akregator in minimized-to-systray mode, you won't know without actually opening up the main window and clicking through the various feeds, whether the new articles that have arrived are ones that are worth reading right away or should wait until later (given that you might not have much time at the moment, and would only want to read important ones right away). This is especially true if you have lots of different feeds, some of which will undoubtedly be more important / worth reading right away than others.
