Hi :)
Is there a chance that the quickaccess widget which sits as default widget in the Kubuntu panel will be adjusted to the KDE version?
Since KDE 4.5 it is possible to set the max. panel icon size via systemsettings. KDE-internal widgets like trash have been fixed by the KDE devs so that their icons increase in the panel when the panel grows in height. Alas the quickaccess widget is missing this code so it stays at tiny max. 32x32 even if the panel is 128 pixel high.
I looked into the code of the trash widget and could separate the necessary code snippet via diff. I added it to the quickaccess widget and it works flawlessly, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-quickaccess/+bug/630879 (diffs and screenshots before/after).
It would be great if this code finally would make it into Natty Narwhal, because quickaccess is a default widget in Kubuntu and it does not only look ugly to have a tiny folder icon floating in the center of a huge panel but it's also a usability issue for people with not so good eyes.
Thanks.
Best,
Susan
