Plasma supports tablet mode when it detects there is a touch device and no keyboard. But for convertible laptops, this depends on proper detection of the change from laptop to tablet mode, which is hit-and-miss. Having a widget that lets you enable and disable tablet mode with a press would be really helpful in these cases. And even when it is detected correctly, there are times when you want to override it (such as when you want to use the touch screen when the keyboard is still available).
> which is hit-and-miss Feels like that should be fixed instead. This detection mostly happens in Libinput IIRC. I know the maintainer and he's friendly and helpful. If you submit bug reports, it will probably be fixed. > such as when you want to use the touch screen when the keyboard is still > available There's nothing stopping you from doing that already. :) Just use it! No need to trigger tablet mode detection. Our UIs are pretty darn tough friendly these days, even when not in a specific touch-centric mode.
