Also in System Settings 5.24:
• switch to sidebar view and examine the buttons at the top of the sidebar
• go Workspace → Workspace Behaviour → Desktop Effects and examine the buttons at the right
• go Workspace → Workspace Behaviour → Virtual Desktops and examine the buttons at the right
• go Workspace → Workspace Behaviour → Activities → Activities and examine the buttons at the right
• go Workspace → Window Management → Window Rules and examine the buttons at the right
• go Workspace → Startup and Shutdown → Autostart and examine the buttons at the right
• the most egregious example: go Personalisation → Regional Settings → Formats and examine the whole dialogue, it is entirely made of frobable regions
• go Network → Connections and examine the buttons at the bottom of the connections list
• go Hardware → Printers and examine the buttons at the top of the dialogue
I do not understand what goes on in the responsible programmers' heads. Why does the implementer reinvent buttons badly, instead of using a standard button? Is there no one reviewing? Is there no one saying "no, we cannot burden a KDE user with this bad usability, I will not merge this code"?
