rokejulianlockhart added a comment to T12308: Dolphin UI redesign.

==== #278016 ====

Dolphin still doesn't look anything like this and even that cyan border is still there. While I understand the need to redesign a major app, all the other QT apps look just as bad or worse. A lot of this is down to the theme engine.

These mockups have now all been implemented :) Regarding the tabbar, I ended up with a vertical design as it worked the best with some calligra apps containing a lot of tools.

Big parts of it have already been implemented. Here is a screenshot that shows what Dolphin looked like when this task was started.

This looks amazing @ngraham !
Is it scheduled for implementation some time after Plasma 6? Like in Plasma 6.1 or whenever?
Is it being worked on?

gguerin added a comment to T12068: Combine the UIs for Virtual Desktop and Activities.

I wonder if this thread has been moved somewhere and if there is any work to move in that direction? It does feel like combining the UI would make Activity features more discoverable and those mokcups look great!
