Welcome to a new issue of "This Week in Plasma"! Every week we cover the highlights of what's happening in the world of KDE Plasma and its associated apps like Discover, System Monitor, and more.
Looks to take up more space. May want to think about making it an user option of the current detail view or the new one. I like the current one myself.
It is only shown if you click on details
Right now it just shows all the copying info without the graph when you press details. With the update when you click details it will show all the copying info and the graph. the graph should be optional by the end user.
The graph has nice paddings in the MR screenshot, but lacks them in the TWiP screenshot, did they make it into the repo?
This was apparently one of those “land it in master early to get more testing and feedback, and then polish it up” situations. We’re monitoring feedback and will be making it nicer-looking before the final release!
I suspect a late change in the graph library is responsible for the paddings disappearing just before merging. The graph color being white is also a simple bug that will be fixed.
Looking at the blog post and thinking, “wow, that progress chart looks sharp!”, I’m feeling a bit like Joey at Thanksgiving 
Author of the file transfer progress graph.
This was on purpose:
As the notification window gets a lot taller and noisier with the graph.
Having the graph visible by default instead of the progress bar was my first intend, but other devs felt this wasn’t the best design, for the previously explained reason.
Hiding by default is fine; I think it’s just the visual design details that are jumping out to people. Mostly it looks easily fixable. I’ve opened File transfer progress graph follow-up (#150) · Issues · Plasma / Plasma Workspace · GitLab to track this.
This’s because the y-axis text is longer on the TWiP.
This is going to be adjusted.
The graph is a really handy addition. Many thanks meven for implementing this.
@ngraham The graph is really nice. But is there a chance we can get a fix for the dolphin performance with smb transfers? It is so slow and laggy when copying data to or from a share and I couldn` find a solution. Does happen with other file managers than dolphin.
As always I am impressed with the amount of polish that KDE has. It’s the little things, like panel settings change with panel orientation, that really makes UI/UX shine.
What jumped out at me is that the graph is way too big for the window; it visually overwhelms the other information. It might look nicer at about half that height, and make the whole easier to absorb. (I like the idea, tho.)
This is in details mode only.
Great feature. Is the only one I miss from another O.S. …
