Nate is out with his regular weekly KDE development update with a mix of new Plasma 6 feature work, new app features/improvements, and the frequent bug fixing highlights. Some of this week's highlights include:
- Copying and pasting files to the desktop when there isn't enough space will now provide a notification to explain the problem.
- Plasma 6 Wayland's session will hve a better cursor appearance when using fractional scaling.
- Gwenview now transitions between images more smoothly.
- Various Dolphin file manager improvements.
- KDE Plasma 5.27.8 will have a crash fix for KWin with the Plasma Wayland session where it could crash when clicking on a window decoration tooltip.
- Plasma 5.27.8 will also fix a bug where alt-tabbing through windows under Plasma Wayland will no longer go in reverse order when Caps Lock is active.
For those wanting to help in testing the pre-beta state of KDE Plasma 6, KDE Neon Experimental is now available .
