It's on KDE's invent.kde.org as plasma-simplememu. - May 27 2020

It's a known bug unfortunately. I have to fix it and make a new release. Sorry. :-) - Apr 20 2020

It's possible to change them in System Settings, but it will affect other icons throughout KDE Plasma as well. - Feb 02 2020

Thanks for your comment!

Yakuake is an official KDE application for many years, but it's released on its own schedule independent of the KDE Apps package.

Yakuake loads the Konsole component as a plugin, so there's no code copied. This is also why the options are provided by the Konsole component - it's part of that codebase. - Sep 24 2018

Simple Menu is hosted on kde.org and recently went through kdereview, so the official repository will soon be git.kde.org:simple-menu and will get KDE i18n coverage. You can then contribute a Russian translation via KDE's Russian translation team!

#2 needs to be added to the Plasma libraries.

#3 and #4 I currently have no immediate plans for (to keep it simple), sorry! - May 14 2018

Can you check which version you have? This was fixed in v1.0.7 a few months back. - Apr 07 2018

No problem. So the way this works is that you ask the folks making your Linux distribution via their support channel how you can get a newer version of KDE Frameworks. Or you look if there's a newer version of your distribution available. - Apr 01 2018

Upgrade to a newer version of KDE Frameworks. - Mar 31 2018

I'll wait until I can use Kirigami's new FormLayout there, then it'll take care of things automatically. - Mar 22 2018

Nope, sorry! But you might like using Application Dashboard from kdeplasma-addons, which is very similar in design and fullscreen. - Mar 13 2018

New favorites get added at the end of the list. You can rearrange them with drag and drop (long press to start).

No good idea @ those buttons, sorry! - Mar 10 2018

I was asking to understand what margins you even mean - but you decided to be aggressive and mean for some reason. Huh. - Dec 04 2017

Maybe I could just rotate when the screen is? - Dec 03 2017

Currently there isn't any, sorry. Once I find the time I want to put Simple Menu through kdereview and make it a proper KDE project, then it will receive a product category on the KDE bug tracker. - Oct 26 2017

I'd prefer not to add options that change the design a lot (better to make a seperate widget). - Oct 10 2017

Did you actually get Simple Menu from the store? That code is not in 1.0 or 1.0.1. - Feb 27 2017
Simple Menu

Plasma 5 Menus by Sho 156 comments

The entire source code is in the Plasmoid package, but you can also use the git repo linkes from this store page - anongit.kde.org/scratch/hein/simplemenu.git - Feb 21 2017
Simple Menu

Plasma 5 Menus by Sho 156 comments

It's open source code, so of course you can modify it :) It's a bit beyond the scope of this forum to teach how though :/ - Feb 13 2017

The layout is reflecting the idea that most people just launch their favorites most of the time, which are fastest to reach this way. People don't browse categories that often (even search is often done by keyboard). - Feb 13 2017

Sorry! You need to ask your distribution. - Feb 11 2017

You can just use "Get New Widgets" in the "Add Widgets" sidebar to download Simple Menu from the Store! But on the command line you can use the "kpackagetool5" utility. - Feb 09 2017

As mentioned in the description, this widget really needs Plasma v5.9, sorry! The error is about new v5.9 API it's using :). - Jan 30 2017

Plasma 5 Menus by Sho 156 comments

Thanks!

Never say never! To tell you the truth I don't want to go over board on adding features/settings to this, especially right away. But I'll collect feedback for a while and when something comes up a lot, I might well add a knob to tune it to someone's liking later. - Jan 30 2017
Simple Menu

Plasma 5 Menus by Sho 156 comments

I added the following features to the launcher backend to support the Simple Menu UI:
* Efficient support for pagination
* Make showing the Power / Session category optional
* Added a mouse wheel signal to a UI utility that's used in the Simple Menu UI structure to support switching pages by mouse wheel
* Support for offsets in positioning Plasma dialogs

These things can be done in applets, but only by using C++ and/or forking the launcher backend code (also in C++), thus requiring compilation - making it impossible to put the applet on the KDE Store for now. It's better for resource usage to contribute to the launcher backend upstream; also the more featureful API will enable other widget authors! - Jan 30 2017
Simple Menu

Plasma 5 Menus by Sho 156 comments

Simple Menu uses the launcher backend code in Plasma Desktop, and needs API/features new in v5.9. I wanted to wait with the release until v5.9 is out, but someone working on a new Look n Feel package for v5.9 asked me if I could release it a bit early so they can test. - Jan 30 2017
