Description Etienne 2003-01-13 10:36:55 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 3.0.5)
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-4GB

Dear friends

The MacOS menubar needs some more functions just like the KDE-task/panel bar for example:
- time / date (and alarm)
- wheater
- soundcontrol (and mute button)
- Active application indicator - little icon perhaps
- An option to switch to the desktop menu

Time:      because my boss thinks that I should go home at 17:00 (in time)
Wheater: because I live in the Netherlands (Amsterdam)
Soundcontrol: Nice to have
Active application indicator - So I can flush the right project files
Desktop menu - So I don't have to scroll or minimize the active application when I want to select Chess

The KDE - task/panel bar is very nice because you have made it configurable with applets;
Can't you implement these MacOS requests also with the code you already have????

- Small step for programmer but giant step for enduser -

I have to rephrase the first sentence The MacOS menubar needs some more function similar to those already present in The KDE task/panel bar

Comment 2 George Staikos 2003-03-24 03:39:03 UTC

This sounds a bit like bloat to me.  We provide this elsewhere already.

Comment 3 Lubos Lunak 2003-03-24 19:51:15 UTC

This is being worked on, just the other sane way around (applet swallowing the menu).

Comment 4 Lubos Lunak 2003-05-07 16:06:32 UTC

Done for KDE3.2.
