OneFinger - screenshots

Here is how KDE looks when OneFinger is installed (Nuvola icons, Plastik style):

Here's an explanation: below the Kicker (i.e. the KDE panel), you can see the "OneFinger main window". The main window looks very different from traditional apps: it has a "text area" above, and below it are three "panels":

Also notice the KDE taskbar and pager have been removed, in favour of the "OneFinger Kicker applet", which spans the whole Kicker's width. The applet is so big because you must be able to click it without looking at it.


In the following screenshot you can see a new component: the "OneFinger window-list". This appears when you left-click (or drag onto) the kicker applet, and allows you to activate windows, drag something onto windows, close terminated output windows, etc.

The killer features of the window list are:


In the following screenshot, you can see OneFinger's "suggest program" capability in action:

I have clicked the "+" button of a picture in the file panel, and as a consequence the program panel has been narrowed to show only the programs that can open the picture.

Now, if I wanted, I could also drag the selected picture to another window, by clicking the "Drag to..." button; then the window-list would appear, asking for the target window. Dragging is particularly easy with OneFinger, because you never have to resize windows or keep the mouse button pressed.
