I am trying to get the notification icon on the task bar to only show the little dot when there actually are notifications. At the moment it shows the dot whether there are notifications or not:

As you can see the bell icon displays a dot even though there are no notifications. Can I somehow change that to only show a badge when there actually are notifications?

Thanks!

Gwenview, Elisa, Konqueror and KRDC added to the list of adoptable apps

You can use Gwenview to view and do basic edits to images, Elisa is a sleek music player, Konqueror is KDE's classic file and web browser, and KRDC allows you to visit and use remote in a windows of your local desktop.

Just found this while scrolling flathub.

"This Week in KDE Apps" brings improvements to Haruna, Kate and KMyMoney (among many others); and a whole new app: Karp, a tool for visually arranging and editing PDF documents.

This Week in Plasma: Battery Charge Cycles in Info Center.

This week we of course continued the customary bug-fixing, but got some nice new features and UI improvements too!

Hello! I'm new to Linux, and using Plasma 6.2, and I'm finding the Application Launcher incredibly finicky to work with. The primary issue is that the category changes on cursor pass-over, and so ends up requiring some surprisingly precise mouse or touch-pad movements to avoid changing the selected category.

Is there a way to change this behaviour? Digging through various settings panels hasn't unearthed an obvious toggle or set of options, and Google hasn't unearthed the secret either. I'm starting to lose hope on this front.

Am I missing something obvious? Is there a way to make it so the category only changes after a hover of some appreciable amount of time? Or even a click?

I just noticed today that if I needed to add a new widget to my desktop/panel, I had to right click on the desktop/panel, enter edit mode/show panel configuration, click on "add or manage widgets, click on "Get new" then click on "download new plasma widget" THEN the store opens then I searched for the widget I needed. Then you are in this limbo state where the desktop is in edit mode, but you can still type into the store. Then if I wanted to add that widget to my desktop, I'd have to go back to the "add or manage widgets" and click it again and then find the new widget. Why so many steps to add one thing? Or I can go into Discover to look for it, install it and then repeat most of those steps I already mentioned. Am I the only one? I can't be, can I?

identity.kde is supposed to be used across KDE websites based on my understanding. But I am not able to login using my ID from identity.kde.

Does anyone know why or should I create a new account there?

Slay gorl, slay all day 💅💅💅 Was gonna make it metaphorically represent people designing Breeze, but idk about that rn lol.

Can anyone tell me what these yellow exclamation marks mean?
