Qml based Aurorae themes can provided a ui file which gets loaded at
runtime. Obviously such a ui file is not translated. This introduces
quite a hack to load the translated strings.
First of all a new property is added to the service file for
specifying the translation domain to be used for the config UI. If
such a translation domain is set we extract all string properties of
the loaded UI and pass them through ki18nd.
This patch applies a common language and type-setting to the
systemsettings modules in kwin.
Considerations:
- The comment field might repeat the name, or give more detail about the
specific settings on this page, this makes sense with how
systemsettings and kcmshell present it
- Mentioning the words settings, configure, options, etc. is avoided --
it is clear from the context that these are settings and options.
- Title-case throughout in line with human interface guidelines, see
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Capitalization
- The comment ends up being the title, so the
- tech slang is avoided as much as possible, but left in where really
necessary
- I've left the Name field "mostly untouched", as that one is key for
the user to find the right module in systemsettings' icon view and in
the sidebars
The most prominent change is "Compositor" to "Graphics Compositor" (in
the Title field). This is more like a "suggestion", if you don't like
it, I'll take it out again. Reasoning: "Compositor" is a very technical
term, people who know graphics might recognize it. Others might not
understand that "composite" is about graphics -- hence the
specialization. Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting

For a classic user interface like the advanced compositor settings the
good old widgets are still better suited than the new QuickControls.

We need kdeclarative for i18n support. This needs to be done before we
load the source. By that we don't need to import Plasma.Core which isn't
used by the views at all.
Also we don't need to link twice against declarative.
This ensures that we can tab to the UI written in QtQuick. Unfortunately
it doesn't get initial focus, which seems to be a general problem of
KCMShell (QWidget based KCMs also do not get focus) and it's not possible
to tab out of quick ui again.

Spacing needs to be specified on the ListView instead in the delegate.
This fixes incorrect vertical alignment of the buttons in each row.
In addition a proper background is set on the ScrollView.

This removes all the hacks to add kwin4_effect_ to the name of the Effect
and adjusts the desktop files of the effect configuration's parent
component.
Note: the scripted effects still start with kwin4_effect_ prefix.

Instead of using the KServiceTypeTrader we use the BuiltInEffects to get
the name of CoverSwitch and FlipSwitch.
Showing the configuration dialog is migrated to KPluginTrader which fixes
the showing of the dialog.
The desktops KCM allows selecting between the virtual desktop switching
effects. For those it offers configuring and showing the information.
The KServiceTypeTrader based search is adjusted to be only used for the
scripted effects. The built-in effects are queried through the
information available through the BuiltInEffects namespace.
The EffectData in BuiltinEffects is extended by all the data needed for
the desktop effects KCM:
* display name
* comment
* category
* video-url
* exclusive group
* internal
This information is taken directly from the desktop files.
The Built-in effects are now also resolved through the BuiltInEffects
namespace and the KServiceTypeTrader query is adjusted to only find the
scripted effects.
Unfortunately this introduces another round of adding "kwin4_effect_" to
load and save the effects correctly. This will be removed once all KCMs
are adjusted to use the new BuiltInEffects.
