Description lateo96 2019-06-18 18:44:12 UTC
DESCRIPTION
Add a centered zone in the title bar where put decorations. There are currently two: one at the left and another at the right.
Having a centered zone will make users used to others OS feel more comfortable, because currently there is no way to put, for example, the application icon/menu left to a centered title bar. Or having the window title at the left, next to the icon (like MS Windows does).

POSSIBLE IMPLEMENTATION
A possible can be making the windows title a decoration and adding a center zone where put decorations.

OBSERVED RESULT
Cannot add buttons to the middle of the title bar.

EXPECTED RESULT
Can add buttons to the middle of the title bar.

This is a good use case for just using a Windows-style window decoration theme, like Plastik or one of many others on store.kde.org, accessed through the "Get new Window Decorations" button in system settings. We can't feasibly support every option in the Breeze theme, so we allow you to change the theme to one that suits you better.

Yes, I am aware of Plastik, but it is just... ugly. I like breeze (though I think that it is outdated and far from a XXI century design). And I just wanted to mix the best features of both. Thanls for reply.
