KDE Promo Activity Report – October 2017
Another week, another KDE Promo report!
This edition of the report is special in that we’ve now synchronized the reports posted on the mailing list with the ones posted here. In other words, the posts shared here will no longer lag behind the mailing list.
If you missed the previous report, don’t worry: you can read it here.
So, what have we been up to in the past month, and which tasks do we offer to potential contributors?
Let’s have a look. -
KTextEditorPreviewPlugin 0.2.1 (last stand-alone)
The KTextEditorPreviewPlugin software provides the KTextEditor Document Preview Plugin, a plugin for the editor Kate, the IDE KDevelop, or other software using the KTextEditor framework.
The plugin enables a live preview of the currently edited text document in the final format, in the sidebar (Kate) or as tool view (KDevelop). So when editing e.g. a Markdown text or an SVG image, the result is instantly visible next to the source text. For the display the plugin uses that KParts plugin which is currently selected as the preferred one for the MIME type of the document. If there is no KParts plugin for that type, no preview is possible.

Clive Johnston: Trouble sleeping? Try the Redshift Plasmoid
Recently I have been having trouble sleeping and looked into ways to help myself drift off to the land of nod a bit more easily.
One technique, which I have on my mobile phone, is to reduce blue colours with a shift to more subtle warmer red colours. This is called “redshift” and I decided to see if the feature is available in KDE Plasma. It turns out that there is a Plasmoid made for this task called “Redshift Control” and it is available via the Ubuntu archive.
