KDE developer Nate Graham has published his weekly development summary early this week in outlining the KDE activities over the past week. There are a number of Plasma Wayland fixes along with other notable fixes and improvements to this open-source desktop.
- KWin now supports setting the underscan property.
- KDE applications relying on the Solid library can now work on OpenBSD.
- With Plasma Wayland and enjoying the "wobbly windows" effect, GTK windows will no longer "fly off in bizarre random directions" when dragged with a touchscreen.
- Plasma Wayland also has a fix for GTK windows where their UI elements are too small when using HiDPI scaling.
- A fix for updating of XWayland windows when toggling fullscreen/windowed mode when using the NVIDIA proprietary driver.
- Various other Plasma Wayland fixes.
- No longer warning users of SMART signs of instability for disks due to too many false positives but now only showing on normal error conditions.
- Fixing of touch input on Plasma Wayland when using quick tile operations.
- The Dolphin file manager now supports displaying thumbnail sequences when hovering over files/folders.
