The KDE Plasma developer sprint in Graz wrapped up just days ago but there’s still been no shortage of new feature work landing into Plasma 6.4 this week. It was another exciting week of feature development as the soft feature freeze approaches for Plasma 6.4.
KDE developer Nate Graham posted his usual Saturday recap to summarize all of the interesting Plasma changes for the week. This week’s highlights include:
– In honoring a 18 year old feature request, KDE Plasma 6.4 can now be configured so that dragging-and-dropping files to another location on the same disk automatically moves them rather than asking every time to move or copy. Finally!
– KWin’s full-screen zoom feature can be activated now with a three-finger pinch gesture.
– The System Monitor app can now monitor GPU usage on a per-process basis for Intel and AMD graphics at least.
– A new “Sensors” page for the KDE Info Center area to show the LM-Sensors/HWMON sensor output.
– Plasma 6.4 adds support for the Wayland zwp_tablet_pad_dial_v2, xdg_toplevel_tag_v1, and color_representation_v1.
– Various improvements to game controller joystick support.
– KDE Frameworks 6.14 enhanced the dialog that prompts the user whether to open or run a file.
