Add button that is covered by Plasma Cashew
I am aware of the problem. The thing is that I don't have any clear idea of a clean solution. So if you do, please let me know :) I don‘t have an idea of coding that but the cashew is a “half circle” when attached to a corner, right? If not, it is a strip. But this strip cannot be put directly to the corner of the screen because when getting too close (like 10px to the corner) the cashew will convert to the circle and attach to the corner. So if it is possible to check whether the cashew is attached to the corner (or a “half circle”) and which corner it is then maybe you can move the plus/minus away 30 pixels of the corner (or so) and if it is a strip then just leave the plus there because it may not cover the plus/minus and if it does, the user can still move it away a bit. It is more about the circle cashew which always covers the plus/minus. i might fallback on this, but i'd really like to find a different, better way to manage the grid. I think it should work more or less first, then we can look for a better solution which respects dpi changes and stuff. :) SVN commit 1202114 by camuffo: show both the "+" and "-" buttons on both the ends of the strip to manage the grid. not a proper fix but at least now it is usable when the toolbox is in a corner. CCBUG:256907 M +15 -1 gridgroup.cpp M +2 -0 gridgroup.h WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1202114 Well, that also was a point that annoyed me: that you had to move your mouse all over the place for accessing plus or minus. Or can‘t you just move the plus/minus a few pixels away from the screen corner so that if the cashew is there it won‘t cover them? The thing is that it isn't so straight forward to do that, and would be anyway a bad workarounding hack, so i think i'll leave it this way for now, hoping to find a better approach for 4.7. Hello! This bug report 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 bug is already resolved in Plasma 5. Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described here is still present 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!
