said E. Liddell: | I don't use gwenview, but have you checked for a way to create a | toolbar button for this plugin, or bind its invocation to a keystroke? | Seems to me that that would be easier all around. That would be fine, but I've not found yet what the button would call, either. There's no hotkey available for it, | Examining the other files in the share/services directory suggests it's | TDE's dumping ground for invocation information on plugins, embeds, and | protocols. Poking around inside a couple of them suggests that if any | of these has a separate executable, the file will contain a line | "Exec=[name]". Look in kxkb.desktop for an example. Yes. That's why I noted that beyond a list of languages and the Metadata Editor plugin's name, it contained only the lines I quoted. Thinking it might be of use, I d/led the kipi-plugins-trinity package, looking to see what it contained. This in turn led me to the (installed on my machine) /usr/share/app-install/desktop/kipi-plugins:kde4__kipiplugins.desktop, which contains: Name=KIPI Plugins Comment=KDE Image Plugins Interface X-DocPath=kipi-plugins/index.html Categories=Qt;KDE;Graphics; NoDisplay=true Type=Application Exec="" Icon=kipi-logo Clearly Gwenview, like other KDE photo applications, are kipi-aware. And in that those applications have kipi plugins in their menus, and their menus are varied, the way to call them has to be established -- someplace. I was kind of hoping that someone here *knew* something about this; as much as I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm, if someone asks what channel the Bears-Packers game is on and the reply is "the Saints-Chargers game is on channel 5, and you might be able to watch that," the question is not advanced toward an answer (except through the likely elimination of one possible channel). As it is, I've spent more time on this than I could ever have hoped to save. So of course tomorrow I'll go digging some more, because it is surely documented somewhere. There has to be at minimum a script that can be written to call the thing, in that it is called in a menu in the same frigging program. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/ ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
