My server went down a few times while I was away 😅

Same experience here.

While I do like fish syntax, you don’t really need to learn it. You can just use it for your interactive use in the terminal while writing your scripts in bash.

The seeming lack of month ordering doesn’t feel like it would be intentional after all.

You’ll probably need to send a ticket to sysadmin to have that issue sorted out.

In that section, if you click the button to configure the Mouse Mark effect, you can see the shortcuts for clearing Mouse Mark:

• Clear last mouse mark: Super + Shift + F12
• Clear all mouse marks: Super + Shift + F11

A small correction:

For example, there are Kirigami bindings for Python you can use to do a desktop/mobile app.

Kirigami is QML all the way, it doesn’t need bindings since you’d be writing in QML either way. The Python part is about the actual business logic. :)

I’d be curious to see a blog post in the future mentioning the challenges you might have faced making the dock work on Wayland, and what was needed for that.

When you search using the Starred filter, usually you get the main project at the top since that’s the one with the most stars.

I added a KRunner web shortcut for this that automatically searches using that filter: https://rabbitictranslator.com/kfluff-web-shortcuts/

Looks like an old bug with kscreen that could cause two screens to merge together and would be worked around exactly the same way you did. I used to have that whenever a blackout happened, but only with Plasma 5, and often on X11.

What’s used under the hood for this is udisks, the same thing used by other file managers to achieve mounting capabilities. It allows you to mount devices without needing to mess with something cryptic and archaic like fstab and doesn’t require root.

You can always keep using fstab of course since it works, but in that case you probably also want to use fstab systemd integration.

The KDE auto mount never worked on plasma 6

Please report your issues on https://bugs.kde.org so they can actually get fixed!

Everything. It doesn’t accurately describe the issue (animation stutter when using an HDD or during heavy I/O) and it doesn’t mention the solution (put the cache folder in tmpfs), plus it obviously follows the traditional sensationalist tone used in clickbait.

The point is to be deliberately vague to bait people into watching it.

It’s small enough that we actually don’t get many things to moderate either. I don’t think I’ve even done any mod action so far. :D

We’re always open to doc contributions. Interested in any particular areas? 🐰

What’s the best or recommended way to test out Plasma 6 RC2?

without the need of the moc

I got a bit of a mind freeze reading that sentence since my first thought was “why would someone deliberately give up on Qt’s reflection system” but only then realized they’re still using QMetaObject (the thing that actually enables reflection and signals and slots), just building it with something else.

Afaik the reason why they’re not using GitLab issues it’s missing some features they need, which Bugzilla has.

Yeah.

Also, you should only use Layout attached properties when the object you’re using it on is a child of a Layout, for example:

ApplicationWindow {
    ColumnLayout {
        anchors.fill: parent // Not a child of a layout, so you use anchors
        Controls.Button {
            Layout.fillWidth: true // It's a child of a layout, so you use Layout.fillWidth
        }
    }
}

So what you want to do is put a Kirigami.SearchField inside the global toolbar created by the Kirigami.Page. It’s not a header.

In the first case you’re putting it inside the page, and because it’s a direct child of a Kirigami.Page, it is automatically laid out for you, which is fine, but not what you want.

In the second case you’re putting it in the header of the ApplicationWindow, but you actually want to put in the global toolbar of the page, so it’s not what you want.

In the third case you’re just putting a SearchField before the initialPage, so it’s loaded on the same level as the page, it’s not what you want.

You can put it in the header property of the Kirigami.Page, but the header area of the page doesn’t include the global toolbar, so they just happen to be close together by chance.

The way I’d have expected to do that would be to override the globalToolBarItem of the Kirigami.Page, but it’s read only, so I don’t really know how to help you with that. You should ask in the Kirigami Matrix room or in the Discuss forum.
