🌟 Hablando de Falkon, descubrí que KDE también tiene su propia suite de oficina: Calligra. ¡Es increíble! Incluye herramientas como Words para textos, Sheets para hojas de cálculo y Stage para presentaciones.
Me sorprende que exista una solución tan completa. Si no lo has probado, ¡te animo a que lo hagas! Me encantaría saber qué piensan quienes ya lo han usado. ¡Déjenme sus comentarios! Siempre es genial compartir descubrimientos.😍

Firefox seemingly very recently shipped their own titlebar controls buttons, which worsens even further the lackluster OS integration. In the screenshot you see my regular control buttons on the window to the left (default KDE Plasma theme) and the new custom buttons Firefox is serving now.

Would anyone know how to undo that change in about:config or anywhere else?

I just updated to Plasma 6.4.1 (from 6.3.5) on OpenSUSE TW, and it automatically applied the Ocean sound theme. This included a new sound when changing the volume, which is fine, but it's way louder and hurts my ears when using headphones, which is less fine (I have some sensory issues which may be related). I've figured out how to disable it, but is there a way to just turn it down?

For now I've gone back to the FreeDesktop sounds (which has the much more pleasant to me popping sound) but I'd like to try out the Ocean sound theme without hurting my ears or disabling the volume control audio feedback.

[Reposted because I got the title wrong]

So as the title explains, while this theme may be visually similar to others, it completely changes colours to match your user accent colour (I also have versions for text colour and solid colours because I could).

I wanted a theme where I could see my colours everywhere, so I made one. (Other reasons too, but this is the most important).

I’ve also made a bunch of playful little changes to help with accessibility like reworking the settings icons.

All icons are SVG files, single layer (a few exceptions), and have been simplified to load faster.

I hope you all enjoy it.

I will be regularly updating it to add more app icons and new actions/ icons as they show up in updates.

a huge problem that makes me still stick in X11 is the lack of allow make an app receive mouse events instead tablet events.

Wayland by design needs the clients handle tablet events otherwise it would be broken unlike X11 and Win32 that only make usage of tablet events when you enable it.

This could be a problem for some apps (mostly proprietary ones) that use GUI toolkits (very older versions of Qt or GTK) lacking proper support of graphics tablet protocol.

So I recently redid a full system icon pack based on/ using the open source material design icons from google. I wanted to have an icon pack that could completely adapt my whole system to any colour I wanted, and ended up having to make my own.

I shared this recently here.

I’m releasing it very soon, and would love some ideas or tips I should consider in the last moments before I submit the finished first release?

So far I know I need many more app icons, but other than that would love some ideas/ tips. Thanks.

(I’d love a list of app names I need to name the app icons to so they automatically apply.)

Just updated to Plasma 6.4.1 from 6.3.5 (or .4? I forget) on Arch and all of my custom keyboard shortcuts for the Wayland session got reset. Was this an Arch thing or did the maintainers decide it was a good idea to reset custom shortcuts for the new point release? Is there any way to prevent that from happening in the future?

Recently I have noticed that if I open some 'Get more global themes' the window that loads only a finite number of matches. If I want to check other options, I have to know and type its name.

Previously I could just scroll down.

Is this just me or works as intended?

So for the better part of the month I’ve been nose glued to my laptab working a custom icon set. It started as just some custom folders… but ended up becoming me redoing the entire breeze theme. I’m talking thousands of icons.

I based the theme on the google material design as I haven’t seen a proper full system theming for that, and for accessibility reasons alone I think it needs to exist… but I mainly wanted to do it like that so I can have EVERYTHING change with the system accent colour.

So after likely over a hundred (hundreds of?) hours, I’m reaching the finish line.

Anyway for selfish and selfless reasons I want to be able to have my theme reach as many people as possible. Some people in my life have suggested I contact some Linux news sites, but that feels a bit much, I don’t know. Any ideas?

Oh yah it’s free of course.

"This week in Plasma" brings the news that Discover's list views can now be navigated with the keyboard, and that we met another accessibility standard by improving the readability of graph axis labels, as well as of selected items in KRunner and Discover, among many other things.

Is Bazzite on Plasma 6.4 already?

I have a strange bug on my Steam Deck with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and I would like to know if it happens on other handhelds/distributions as well.

In Plasma Wayland 6.4 fullscreen windows shift up about half a screen when using gamepad input. They become normal again when I use mouse input. Happens with games as well as in VLC.

Edit: Can't take a screenshot of it, so here's a photo:
