The Lightweight Qt Desktop Environment

Release pcmanfm-qt 1.3.0

The LXQt team is proud to announce the release of pcmanfm-qt 1.3.0. The release can be downloaded from Github.

Main changes:

  • Don’t try to activate windows under Wayland (it isn’t possible).
  • Leave the pixmap cache limit to Qt (and avoid extra CPU usage is rare cases).
  • Added a title for Desktop (for setting WM rules under some Wayland compositors).
  • Localize tab texts for special folders (“search”, Applications, Computer, Network, Trash and Desktop).
  • Prevent Desktop items from shaking on config changes.
  • Remove Desktop’s drop indicator on leaving Desktop.
  • Keep dragged and dropped items together on Desktop as far as possible.
