Personally I prefer (so far) KDE3 to KDE4 since I find it much more polished, matured, stable. I also like better how it looks.
I agree. That is why I ask you _what_specifically_ is more polished, matured, stable in KDE 3 _for_you_? I want to help get KDE 4 up to that level of polish, maturity, and stability.
I tried KDE4 and found some issues/thing relavant to me: - I really miss the panel hiding buttons.
Please comment and vote here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158556
- I don't like that I can't set the font sizes of clock and date of the panel's clock independently. I don't like either that the font size is automatically adjusted according to the panel size.
Please, please make a comment here so that I could reopen the bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=185447
- I tried the latest KDE4.3 factory version last week. Panel behavior is still not stable. I had difficulties with organizing applets/widgets (sepecially taskbar) along the panel. Drag and release sometimes did not work. I could not find out how I can move a panel from the top edge of the screen to the lower edge. I tried to grab the panel but it did not move.
I agree with you here, and I am in a fight to improve it. Please, try to do these actions and tell me what you _thought_ should have worked. That would naturally be the most intuitive action, and I want to file a bug to make it the default: 1) How would _you_ like to see widgets rearranged on the panel? (list _all_ the steps). 2) How would _you_ like to see the panel resized? (list _all_ the steps). 3) How would _you_ like to see the panel moved to a different screen edge? (list _all_ the steps). Thank you very, very much for this input!
- I miss the ability of making the same theme as I have in KDE3.
You can make custom themes in KDE 4. What part of the theme is not customizable for you (note that I do not know how to make themes, but I know that it is possible)?
I also would like to see a list or link to a list that describes/poins to the advantages of KDE4 over KDE3, because myself I can not see it.
That is a good point. I will get on that, and I will make a similar list that would describe the advantages of KDE 3 over KDE 4. Thanks for the idea. To tell you the truth, I think that for those who have no problems with KDE 3, they should stick with KDE 3. But in the same vain we should identify the KDE 3 advantages and port them over to KDE 4 as well.
