Feature, in this case. I’m trying to strike a balance between consistent behaviour in the UI, and everything keeping its state. There are some tweaks to be made, still, though, such as better updating and hiding of the “show more…” button and showing what the list actually holds in that state in the label above it (the problem here is that it must not be too wide, since we’re using bigger fonts there and we don’t want to blow up the layout — need to think about translations here as well.

Nice to hear you like our work :-) This blog entry has the most likely explanation (the part around "qdbus" is interesting) for your problem with connections not showing up. I've just committed a change that should make this part just work, more details can be found here

That looks great :) I’ve got a pretty recent version installed on my ArchLinux:

knetworkmanager-svn 1127283-1
networkmanager 0.8.0.997-1

Sadly I’ve got an issue with my connections – they won’t show up in the right pane of the plasmoid… Initially I thought those weren’t implemented yet… but well… your screenshot proves they are…. does anybody have an idea what could be wrong with my setup? (or provide any hints which config/log files to look at)

Thanks for your great work :) nice balance of coolness and functionality :)

Thanks, now can be arrow symbol clearly recognized even when using my theme :) Btw. the same button size has disconnect button, but close symbol is much more visible.

PS: during testing, i found out, that switching back from interface details resets show more / show less status, i.e:

1. set it, so that connection list shows “more” connections
2. open and close any interface details
3. connection list is showing only “less”‘ connection. Bug or feature? :)

I've made it a tad bigger, it looks like this now: http://imagebin.ca/view/sNw99JJ.html Can you give it a shot? (I see you're running trunk :-))

Here is screen of my desktop: http://yfrog.com/49nmplasmoidp

As you can see, “back’” arrow is not very visible, much less than on your screenshot. I don’t have problems hitting it, but it is much more complicated than opening interface details.

Did you actually try using it and did you have problems hitting it or are you just judging visually?

Hello, nice work in GUI polishing. Especially interface details are getting better and better.
It would be even better, if it shows subnet mask (number of subnet bits in line with IP). Also back-button is quiet small, what about to use the same back-button as kick off menu or quickaccess plasmoid?

In trunk, to become KDE SC 4.5. :-)
