KDE Plasma 6.3 Sees More Feature Work, One More Crash Fix For KWin

([KDE] 6 Hours Ago KDE This Week)


KDE developer Nate Graham is out with his traditional weekly development recap that highlights all of the interesting work taking place within the KDE desktop space.

This week saw continued feature work toward the Plasma 6.3 desktop as well as a fair amount of fixes and other maintenance work. Some of the highlights for the past week include:

- Plasma 6.3 is now able to show a laptop battery's cycle count within the KDE Info Center.

- Addressing some sources of "visual awkwardness" within the KDE System Monitor.

- Enhancing the look of the "Apply Plasma Settings" dialog within the System Settings' Login Screen area.

- Fixing a case where Plasma could crash when logging in with an external screen connected to the laptop via HDMI.

- XWayland-based apps can no longer crash KWin by using extremely large icon sizes.

- Improving the name of virtual outputs with Plasma 6.3.

- Various other bug and regression fixes.

After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
And you learn that love doesn't mean security,
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises
And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes open,
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads
On today because tomorrow's ground
Is too uncertain. And futures have
A way of falling down in midflight,
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting
For someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure...
That you really are strong,
And you really do have worth
And you learn and learn
With every goodbye you learn.
