9 This is a very good and simplistic RSS widget, just what I was looking for. Minimal including the settings yet has all the features you need, including the ability to place directly on the desktop and go follow a lists from there. I appreciate that it also offers notifications for new entries! If an update is still possible, I have one simple change I'd like to ask about: Could you please add the ability to remove the background? The setting allows the panel and borders to be removed and inverts text color to white with a black background for readability. Newer widgets allow this, see the system monitor for an example. I do that for most widgets to maintain a nice feel and would use this if it had the same ability. Also would it be possible to allow setting the service as an icon in the system tray as well? Would be useful for those of us who prefer it there instead of adding it to the panel as its own widget. Thank you!

Hey, excellent app! Had the same issue as scaph and solved applying your solution, cutejumper. I've been trying to increase it's size without success, if you could let us now I'd be grateful. Thanks!

cutejumper

Sorry for the late reply! Really busy recently. How do you use the widget? If you put it on the desktop, you should be able to resize it by pressing the left button of your mouse for some time.

Hi, I have the following errors: /.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/rss_indicator/contents/ui/main.qml:21:37: Type CompactRepresentation unavailable rss_indicator/contents/ui/CompactRepresentation.qml:55:5: Type FullRepresentation unavailable rss_indicator/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:112:23: Type RssSourceDelegate unavailable rss_indicator/contents/ui/RssSourceDelegate.qml:17:5: Cannot assign to non-existent property "separatorVisible" Why ? Kubuntu 16.04 LTS 2 - KDE Plasma 5.5.5 - Qt version 5.5.1 - kernel 4.4.0-78-generic - 64-bit

cutejumper

Hmm...I guess it is because you're using an incompatible version. Can you try to delete the 17th line in RssSourceDelegate.qml to see whether it works?

cutejumper

Hmm... I guess it is because of the incompability between different Plasma versions. Can you try to delete the 17th line in RssSourceDelegate.qml to see whether it works?

cutejumper

Hi, can you try to remove the 17th line in RssSourceDelegate.qml to see whether it works?

scaph

Yes, I tried, but it does not change anything ...

scaph

Oh, sorry! By starting my computer, this morning, I found that it works ... Awesome !! Thank a lot for your answer :)

ekaradon

It works great! Thank you @cutejumper!

aram

Doesn't work...

cutejumper

Can you paste the errors? Sorry for the late reply but the comment system on opendesktop.org seems broken for a long time and I can finally reply to you now.

Errore durante il caricamento del file QML: file:///home/mirko-gennari/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/rss_indicator/contents/ui/main.qml:22:34: Type FullRepresentation unavailable file:///home/mirko-gennari/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/rss_indicator/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:2:1: module "QtQuick.LocalStorage" is not installed

cutejumper

You need to install the localstorage module of QtQuick. This depends on your Linux distribution. Please try google your Linux distribution and QtQuick localstorage.

mirkogennari

ok thank.

I get Error loading QML file: file:///home/******/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/rss_indicator/contents/ui/main.qml:22:34: Type FullRepresentation unavailable

cutejumper

How do you install the widget? What are the files under ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/rss_indicator/contents/ui/?

pyrforos

tried both ways plasmapkg2 --install plasmoid install from menu CompactRepresentation.qml FullRepresentation.qml RssList.qml config main.qml RssSourceDelegate.qml CurrentItemHighLight.qml rssindicator.png

cutejumper

Weird...You do have FullRepresentation.qml there. Any luck running plasmoidviewer -a plasmoid under the git-cloned root directory?
