Trinity 14.0.6 preliminary.
Don't know if it is a feature of ksnapshot or a misconfiguration
somewhere from me, but it is getting absolutely annoying what happens.
I have a website, a document or whatsoever on my screen in full
A4-papersize. Now I want a printout of a small part of it. Call
ksnapshot, choose "region" "new snapshot" and then draw a border around
the desired part. Press "print" and then print it. Bull... I get a
print in landscape, useless and even worse not even the original layout
reappears.
Stop ksnapshot, restart it and same procedure with again the same
miserable result.
Stop, restart, same procedure but no actual printing, instead I look
into the printer properties. And there, big surprise, landscape was
marked as to be printed BUT all 4 orientations were grayed out, so I
couldn't change that.
Checked in tdeprint the printersettings, nothing wrong, in "instances"
"settings" all 4 orientations were available and portrait was marked as
to be applied in the default printer.
Checked kprinter and of course the settings of tdeprint were there also
valid.
But then I had an idea. If I selected in ksnapshot a larger part of the
screen, say more than half A4, what would happen?
Yes, some ugly words from me and there it was: portrait was marked but
still all 4 possibilities grayed out.
So ksnapshot decides how it wants to print and doesn't leave the user a
chance to get a result, that he wants. Utterly bull....
Any suggestion, where I could look to alter this behaviour?
Phiebie.
One of the very few things I find annoying about konqueror in TDE is that,
when using it as a file manager, if I click on an image file (a .png, for
example), the preview it shows me is not correctly sized to the visible pane.
Rather, it seems to be displayed, always, at full size... which means that
most of the time it doesn't actually fit in the pane and I can see only a
portion of the image.
I don't think there's any way to change this behaviour, but I thought I'd
better ask here before filing a feature request. So, is there some way to
change this behaviour so that the image is scaled correctly so that it always
fits in the pane?
(Fitting images to the pane is the way the konqueror works in plasma5, for
example -- although "modern" konqueror has so many other annoyances that I
find it unusable; but the "automatic-fit-images-to-the-pane" behaviour is a
great improvement on the TDE behaviour described above.)

Hello to all ArchLinux users,
in connection with the release of TDE R14.0.13, it is necessary to draw
attention to one change that concerns the path to the repository.
Since we added support for other architectures and therefore binary
packages for multiple architectures are provided, there was a need to
modify the path in the repository so that there are individual folders for
individual architectures. Therefore you will need to edit your pacman.conf
and add "/$arch" to the repository path. See page on TDE Wiki.

Hi all!
I just noticed, that creating a TDE theme does not include the color settings for kate and kwrite. Is there a way to include these into the *.xml of the theme? Or by some other trick?

Hello all,
My school uses Office 365, also for mail. I used to be able to get my mail
using imap and be able to answer these mails using Office's smtp.
Now they activated two factor authentication and kmail can't access anymore. I
had to remove this imap access as it tended to block kmail (that was waiting
for me to act on it's error message).
I've solved the problem of receiving the mail (which is the most important) by
simply forwarding to my usual account (which is linked to my website).
However, I have to log in m$ stuff (online) to answer because Oulook refuses
mails from my private mail server.
It looks like they use something named OAuth and this does not appear to exist
in TDE's kmail. Does someone know if it's possible to tweak settings so as to
communicate with OAuth?
I can try to ask our IT people but they usually simply answer that Linux is
not supported and I should run Windows...

Hi all,
we would like to inform you that the DEB packages for Superkaramba in PSB
and PTB repositories have been updated to use Python3 instead of Python2.
Please, if you are using Superkaramba and using PSB or PTB, please test
that the sensors work with Python3 as they did with Python2. If you
experience problems, please report it.
Thank you!
Cheers

Hi all;
Maybe somebody can reproduce this: opening the attached pdf in kpdf only shows the formulas, but not the text. Opening the same pdf in xpdf works flawless.
