Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2011-01-18 17:59:46 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.95) 
OS:                Linux

A good thing is that now not-shown songs don‘t get removed from queue but re-arranging songs in that queue list is just nod goot.
Having up and down arrows is so 1990‘s. You should be able to just drag them like you can in the KDE-wide tool bar settings.

Reproducible: Always

This is among the last missing pieces of functionality from Amarok 1. A series of two patches will follow.

A patch to move UI implementation from .ui to .cpp file

I need to create a specialized QListWidget implementation. Thus it seems easier to move the rather limited part of UI into the .cpp file and cleanly add another class with the desired modifications than to dig into .ui files with nonstandard classes.

This patch shouldn't introduce any changes in behavior yet. It's only purpose is to prepare ground for the next patch.

Please disregard the previous attachment. This one is corrent.

Add dragging capability in queue editor

The new ListWidget supports drag'n'drop of self-contained ListItems to itself. On successful dropEvent a signal is emitted, which is intercepted by a new slot reloadQueue() in PlaylistQueueEditor.

Things to consider in future:
- dragging from the playlist into the queue editor
- making the whole operation more efficient than clearing and recreating whole queue on each dropEvent
- possibly less hacky way of implementing things? maybe some backend interface would need to be added/exposed for the queue editor? any advice from a seasoned Amarok developer would be very valuable

If this isn't going to be accepted as-is into Amarok codebase then I'm willing to put some time into reworking the solution.

Add dragging capability in queue editor, v.2

Corrected a stupid mistake (lack of entry in CMakeLists.txt for the new .cpp file) resulting in linker errors.
