The Kickoff menu is a peice of rubbish, it accomplishes nothing you can’t already do with the Classic menu, only it’s more difficult to navigate.

Right-click on the icon that launches the menu, select „switch to classic menu style”

The task bar simply takes up too much screen real estate, and can’t be resized nor can it be hidden. Getting stuff into it is convoluted and not at all obvious.

Are you even using 4.1? The ability to resize, hide, or add bars is there now.

Dolphin lacks functionality.

You might try being more specific.

Can someone, any one, tell what is the point of the Zoom out/Zoom in functionality that is available from the top RH corner of the desktop. So what you can make the desktop background take up a quarter of the desktop instead of all of it.

It’s basically multiple desktops for Plasma. You can add different applets to any of the other three desktops, then zoom into them.

That would be of great help. We just don't have enough resources to do it by ourselves. If you have spare 30 minutes a week, e-mail me at: michuk@jakilinux.org (or send me a jabber message on the same address) @batwing: would you like to help us proofread some articles?

- First paragraph about KRunner: „It’s plug-in system is well-thought”
- Oxygen or Bespin (last paragraph): „the looks of the scroll-down tree elements”
- KWin (first p.): „In the race after fancy visual effects” -> „In the race for fancy visual effects”
- KWin (prev. to last p.): „In case the visual effects of KWin and turned on” – > „In case the visual effects of KWin are turned on” (but I’m not sure about that one – maybe I just don’t understand what you meant?)
- Plasma/Preview: „as far as its content type supported, of course” -> „(as far as its content type is supported, of course)”
- Firefox3: „I tested two skins which make is more KDE-ish” -> „I tested two skins which make it more KDE-ish”

Nice article, nonetheless :) I’m looking forward for 4.2 release, which, I hope, won’t behave as beta or RC :P

What happened with oxygen style minimize/maximize/close buttons? Buttons was best thing in all style. So if some of them was changed why not all including "apply" "ok" etc buttons was changed. Now they are completely from diferent stories. Active inactive window problem was simply solved with all dimm and etc. effects. Stripes are useful for somebody too, but they are optional, but thees new buttons not. Buttons become ugly when are inactive and I don't know how to turn off that thing. Ok it's subjective opinion, but why delete old style, when already was created new ozone style. If somebody like it do it, create dozens of new styles, but keep old ones and let people choose. Another example analog clock, old was very good. Again if somebody like new one, why not to do possibility to have both styles. Digital ckock and task manager improved, but gone ability to change task managers size. Tasks on that taskbar looks much worse, pager too, they was nice and simple, why change? Worst thing in KDE 4 design is wasting desktop area. Huge empty spaces, large bars, and inability manually adjust and this was left untouched. I am architect and designer, so watch in to KDE from my point of view. I think good design is essential. And would like to see KDE as best DE in design aspect. Good luck Nice improvement in KDE 4.1, but sadly in my opinion there are and some steps backwards.
