MiniMap Fine-Tuning

Tuesday, 14 June 2016 | Dominik Haumann


Kate also supports a minimap of the text contents instead of a classical scrollbar. To enable it, just go to

MiniMap Settings

Here at the Randa meeting, we just invested some time to bring this minimap more in line with the Breeze style. You can see the difference here: Note the scrollbar slider frame, the new version (right) is more distinct and in line with the rounded corners of the Breeze style.

MiniMap - Old Slider

  <p>
    Old Scrollbar Slider</td> 
    
    <td>
      <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3839" src="/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/minimap-new.png" alt="MiniMap - New Slider" width="469" height="369" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/minimap-new.png 469w, /wp-content/uploads/2016/06/minimap-new-300x236.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px" /></p> 
      
      <p>
        New Scrollbar Slider</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> 
        
        <p>
          This change will be in the KDE Frameworks 5.24 release.
