places folders with the colors from the mimetypes.

andreask added a comment to T14968: Breeze Icons - Blue Ocean Update.

about the options idea

  • Hide folder crease -> can be done with an separate breeze icon theme where you have the folders with creases. Everything else wasn't needed cause the fallback is breeze
  • Standard folders use your accent colour -> no real issue cause the standard accent colour is the colour the folders use by default
  • places folders use different colours -> we already have this eg. for desktop, encrypt, as I'd like to implement more specific places folders see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443288
  • places folders use different colours -> mimetype icons use also different colors to separate them easier

About colored folders I'm thinking on something like this. I know we can theme all the icons but have all folder's blue / pink / gray / ... is "cool" but from recognizion point of view different colors for different folders would be a recognizion benefit.

About shadows: Our icon's are VERY complex with the colorScheme stuff, ... so if we can live without shadows, go for it. We have to think also for contributors how will submit an icon and not the 1.000 breeze icon.

About monochrome icons we use now 1px line icons if you have a look at gnome and I think also other icon themes, and also at the proposal the symbols on the folders aren't 1px thin lines. As it's way easier to visible, I would prefer to go that way, but than we have to update ALL action icons (which is ok for me)

andreask added a comment to T6854: Modernizing Kontact look.

What I also like is to use for the summary page qml/kirigami, cause for some tasks I learn from my phone that the phone UI is better than the desktop UI. eg. for delete and archive spam mails. So the summary page can give the user the option to have something like an mobile UI, or something like googles inbox. But in the different apps you have the full featured kontact suite.

I have three toppics for this kcm

  1. Default Leave Option is an subitem of Offer shutdown options

  1. the shutdown time is 30 seconds (from my point of view 10 seconds to give the user the option to cancel shutdown should be enough) so maybe an option for the time. I already have an old bug report and Thomas say also that 30 seconds is to long.
  2. End current session isn't my prefered default setting. I'm for Turn off computer (but this is subjectiv and the only rational reason can be energy saving.

In reddit the last plasma wallpaper was used and as the channel is called kde the kde icon was shown. So at least the kde image should be there instead of plasma.
