jrepin writes: KDE community have release Plasma 5.19 , the popular free and opensource desktop environment. In this release developers have prioritized making Plasma more consistent, correcting and unifying designs of widgets and desktop elements; worked on giving you more control over your desktop by adding configuration options to the System Settings; and improved usability, making Plasma and its components easier to use and an overall more pleasurable experience.
The first change you will see is the new wallpaper, Flow. Another personalization detail you will probably appreciate is that there is a completely new collection of photographic user account avatars. The panel spacer, can now automatically center widgets. Users that want more control over the file indexing process will appreciate the new configurable file indexing options for individual directories. You can also completely disable indexing for hidden files if you so wish. Display settings page now shows the aspect ratio for each available screen resolution. The KWin window manager includes subsurface clipping. This feature greatly reduces the flickering in many apps. The Default Applications, Online Accounts, Global Shortcuts, KWin Rules and Background Services settings pages have all been overhauled.
