Nice!
But you may want to check out quickbar.

Looks and works nice on my side. There are a few options for adjusting it

It works great overall! The only issue I’m having is that an app name still shows up when no app is selected. If I set When to show to Only when app window is active, it hides the app name completely. Is this expected behavior, or do I have something misconfigured?

I had to restart Plasmashell every time I made a change to QuickMenu.

systemctl --user restart plasma-plasmashell.service
1414

Yes, I’m aware of that. I did restart plasmashell as well.

1415

It seems in your picture you have quickbar in foreground.

EDIT: No sorry, its Dolphin :frowning:

1416

Check this out—these are my settings, and the icon and name appear before the menu.

I used the same settings, except for the icon. The app name shows correctly when an app is selected (e.g., Dolphin), but it defaults to ‘Plasma’ when nothing is selected. How can I remove or hide ‘Plasma’ when no app is selected?

Dolphin selected

No app selected. Name defaulted to Plasma

I am sorry :person_shrugging: I haven’t figured that out yet. I installed QuickBar yesterday with these settings.

1419

No problem. Thanks for your time mate. :slight_smile:

Always mate :victory_hand:

Still on Fedora, which has been smooth run for little over two months. Morewaita icons, Dash to Dock and new old wallpaper which I stumbled while digging files.

Plasma 6.7.5 + YAMIS

I saw someone on Reddit tweak YAMIS to follow ColorScheme-Highlight, which piqued my curiosity. I gave it a shot, but it’s not really my cup of tea—it creates noticeable color discrepancies between YAMIS and inherited icons like Papirus and Breeze, particularly in Dolphin.

That’s nice if someone likes it. But the system tray and Dolphin look pretty—let’s just say—weird.
