[trinity-users] 14.0.4 titlebar icon/button sizes too small
by Felix Miata 12 Jan '17

12 Jan '17

What part of settings provides control over $SUBJECT? I have panel and desktop icons acceptably sized (very much bigger than default), but can't find anything that works for those in the titlebar (aka window decorations minimize, maximize, close) no matter which theming is applied. Places tried: 1-appearance & themes -> icons -> advanced -> size (a logical place to try, but which lacks a "titlebar" selection, and in which several selections offer no option to change size at all) 2-appearance & themes -> theme manager (tried in Keramik, Plastik and KDE_Classic) 3-appearance & themes -> window decorations -> buttons Surely there must be a way to enlarge titlebar buttons, but how? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

desktop icons for automounted external USB hard disks
by Istvan Gabor 11 Jan '17

11 Jan '17

Hello: TDE handles external USB hard drives the same as internal non-USB (ie SATA) drives. After plugging in an external USB hard drive it only places a device icon to the desktop if device icons for unmounted/mounted hard disks are enabled. I don't want to enable those icons because I have ~20 partitions I don't want to put on the desktop as devices. Still I would like to have removable USB hard disk icons on the desktop similarly to flash disks. How can I do it? In my opinion removable hard disk should be distinguished from internal non-removable drives in this context. Thanks, Istvan

YES!! That was it! And, so obscure it is. sigh... Thank you, thank you!! Happy New Year to you, Dave, and all the Trinity denizens. So far this weekend, this is my only system snafu to get put right.

konqueror problem
by Jonesy 08 Jan '17

08 Jan '17

I have a wee little problem. konqueror no longer opens links in a displayed web page. Instead it pops up, viz: Open 'http://jonz.tst/W3DHJ/vhfrover.php'? Type: HTML Document [Save As] [Open with 'kwrite'] [Cancel] And _sometimes_ , very rarely, I can successfully "Open in New Tab". But, even the "New Tab" will most likely present me with ONLY the 'kwrite' popup option. Backstory: This seems to have occurred when I visited a web site with konqueror via sftp://. I wanted to edit a file, and right clicked on it, and as usual, I clicked on the "Open With..." option - and chose 'kwrite'. But, this time to my grief, I clicked the "Always Open this file type..." (or, some text to that nature...) button. I believe that's what caused my current problem. What I've done to try to fix it: I've drilled down through [Settings]>[Configure konqueror] and can find nothing that affects this behavior. I've grep'ed -R for 'kwrite' in the ~/.trinity/ directories and see no hits that would be associated with my problem. I'm sure others here have bumped into this and know the way free of the problem. So, where do I looked next? Thank you, Jonesy -- Marvin L Jones | W3DHJ | W3DHJ | https://W3DHJ.net/ Pueblo, Colorado | @ | Jonesy | __ 38.238N 104.547W | jonz.net | DM78rf | 73 SK

Thumbnails in konqueror not working for new users
by office＠klepp.biz 08 Jan '17

08 Jan '17

Hi all! Could somebody please verify this: Create a new user, log in with that account and let the wizard ceate a configuration. Now open konqueror, go to a folder with images. You only see thumbnails for images with embedded thumbnails and a generic icon for all other images. Log out from TDE, open a virtual console, log in as previouse user and edit ~/.trinity/share/config/kdeglobals, find this section: [PreviewSettings] MaximumSize=0 Now change "MaximumSize=0" to something bigger, e.g.: MaximumSize=10000000 Log into TDE again, go to the perevious folder. Now all thumbnails are created. Open kcontrol, select "TDE Components/Filemanger", there the tab "Preview". "Max. File size" is fixed to 0 - which causes the thumbnails not to be created.

How do I turn off the Logout application countdown timer?

This countdown timer serves no useful purpose for me, since I'm the only user of my machine. How can I turn it off so my logout completes more quickly? Leslie

[UPDATE] End of Year Fundraiser Results
by Timothy Pearson 07 Jan '17

07 Jan '17

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, A big Thank You for participating in our end of year fundraiser for 2016. Your contributions were much appreciated, and will help to keep TDE online. The total received only came to a small fraction of the operating costs for the TDE core services, so we will probably be running another fundraiser this spring and exploring options in terms of disconnecting or downgrading certain services to lower operating costs. We do have several incentives to make an annual contribution. At the $200 level or above (per year) we will allow access to our up-to-date builds of Raspbian with TDE preinstalled, along with other goodies. As before, if you have a particularly nasty bug you want fixed, a good way to get attention is to offer a contribution in exchange for the fix -- proceeds go to keeping TDE online and available for all to use. Thank you again for your support!

Attached is a cumulative patch for tdebase that you can use to preview the new Kate session panel I mentioned before. You can apply the patch again the current main trunk. This will add a new session panel to Kate and rework session support almost entirely. I am actually planning more work on this (to add support for files in sessions as well, making it similar to a mini-project manager) but will probably be delayed to R14.2 or whatever. !!! Please NOTE the following !!! - all existing Kate sessions will be imported - the "default session" is no longer hardwired and actually does not really need to exist any more (it can be renamed/delete) - after you finish your testing, if you want to go back to the existing Kate (without the new session panel), you will NOT be able to use the session files from Kate-with-the-session-panel. Therefore if you just want to do a test, I recommend you save all you session files (~/.trinity/share/apps/kate/sessions folder) before you use the new Kate. So far I have used this for about a year (through development) and have not yet pushed the code to the main repo. Any feedback from you (or anyone else willing to test) would be more than welcome. If positive enough, I will probably push the changes. Cheers Michele
