| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | a small glinch in lineedits May 18 2009 on content Bespin | using revision 467
Konqueror and other apps have the "inlinesearch" - one searches the current webpage while typing. A red background color of the lineedit widget indicates if the string is contained in the file or not. Similarily a yellow background color indicates a secure connection.
I have two problems with Bespin here:
(1) The colors are too bright, i.e. the red becomes a pastell rose (hard to see the difference to pure white)
(2) When the keyboard focus is on the lineedit, the background is always blank white. Then typing a string into Konqui's search bar lets no chance for identifying if the string is found or not. |

(I use the borderless windeco of bespin) |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Re: Re: Re: Re: bugs in revision 339(1 Dec 18 2008 on content Bespin | Thanks - the shadows really look great now (rev. 35x).
I use the Sans Serif font, size 10 for the menus - openSuse 11.0 |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Re: Re: bugs in revision 339(1 Dec 16 2008 on content Bespin | True, counting is none of my strengths...
Concerning number
(2): Yes, the scrollarea also jumps. It happens in all apps on my box. The jumps are not large - but they are there...
(4+5): I just wondered that my fonts increase in height when using bold letters. That's what looks rather out of place. It may be subject to freetype or something else. maybe you can check that (or decrease size by 0.5 pt?)
In Baghira top menu you had a second menu next to the application menu. The problem in Baghira was that both menus did not interact. In Bespin you change the name of the first menu. I am not sure which solution (with its drawbacks) I prefer - Using Bespin is sometimes confusing because first menu does not refer to the application itself, but to "file", "location" or anything else - and because using keyboard shortcuts let behave x-bar rather random. I believe, it would be sufficient to place the application name (without function) next to the menubar or introduce an individual submenu into the menu that interacts better than the Baghira one.
Concerning the funtion of x-bar I'd suggest something like KDesktop Menu:
http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/KDesktop+Menu?content=22605
Another observation is, that the x-bar does not align itself to the panel vertical center. I also encountered problems adding additional plasmoids to the top panel.
Thanks for listening! Bespin is a great experimental style. |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | bugs in revision 339(10th dec) Dec 11 2008 on content Bespin | (1)
Seen in Krita from KOffice 2.0 beta:
The comboboxes in the top toolbar have different heights.
(2)
setting: scrollbar buttons enabled
action: when touching the scrollbar handle with the mouse, then the handle judders and the scrollbar goes to a slightly different position (for example jumps up a few lines). I already noticed this bug in Baghira.
(3) colors of shadows
In KWrite (and other apps, but let stay at Kwrite) Bespin introduces a slight shadow around the textedit widget. Problem: The shadow expects the background color to be white, but I configured in manually to be light gray. This looks rather funny on my box.
I have seen, that Skulpture does a real fading of shadows onto backgrounds. In that way it does not need to know the real background color since the shadow is just a transparent mapping.
(3) xbar - bold text
the first item is bold, but its font seems to be larger than the font of the other menu items
(4) xbar - update
when no kde4 app is active, then xbar shows the curent windows.
o It would be good if one could distinguish between the desktops.
o It does not update if a window title changes.
great style anyways.

| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Please not! Nov 5 2008 on content No click GUI | Did you ever log out accidentially using Lancelot?
I did, I even did start applications I didn't want to.
I accept this input in Lancelot. But to introduce it globally one has be VERY concentrated if one does not want to do the wrong things.
