• 2 more: 1 prob + 1 idea for p5

    From bad sector@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jun 13 09:47:30 2016
    I'v noticed YEEEAAARS ago that one of the nicest KDE attributes was the
    crisp INSTA-Click feel of it all, really well done, far better than
    anything else I had tried before (or since)! This is missing wholesale
    in the current (beta?) plasma 5. I don't know why but my windows which
    are set to shade on a title-bar click need to be clicked many times, and
    this sort of problem is present throughout.

    The other topic is the mouse pref that we can set for single-click or
    double click. This is nice, a choice is always nicer than no choice,
    menus and such things are generaly single click nowadays. What I'd like
    to see is the option of setting single-click for all things EXCEPT
    custom exetutables, I'd like to keep those on double-click for obvious
    reasons.

    A double click, this to not make it shade when you grap hold of the
    title to move the window.
    You can add a button for shading to your window decoration and then you
    only have to click once on the button to shade/unshade it.

    And what would be custom executables? Everything that's not set up by
    KDE at the first time it runs?

    You can always go to bugs.kde.org and make a feature request.

    Not sure if I follow you, I cited the double-click here for example
    mostly, I find generally all mouse response a far cry from what was in kde4.

    System Settings
    Workspace
    Window Behavior
    Titlebar Actions
    Double-click > Shade

    I've been using this feature for years, it allows me to just click-click anywhere on the titlebar and its stowed, rolled up, now

    I don't need to look for a button even

    Everything that's not a kde app, that could be a place to start.
    Actually I'd be happy if all executables could be set to launch only on
    a double-click, even in menus. The original widget that was there before QuickAccess worked with double clicks, QuickAccess didn't, FolderView
    also does but then doube clicks on directory icons are kind of less
    productive.
