@ -5,7 +5,9 @@ We are happy to publish another stable release of Manjaro Linux, we call Juhraya
The Xfce edition remains our flagship offering and has received the attention it deserves. Few can claim to offer such a polished, integrated and leading-edge Xfce experience. We ship Xfce 4.14 with this release of Manjaro.
We mainly focused on polishing the user experience on the desktop and window manager, and on updating some components to take advantage of newly available technologies such as switching to a new theme we call Matcha. The new feature Display-Profiles allows you to store one or more profiles for a particular display configuration that you may be using. To make the deal a little sweeter we implemented auto-applying of profiles when new displays are connected.
Our KDE edition continues to deliver this powerful, mature and feature-rich desktop environment with a unique look-and-feel, and with the perks of Manjaro's latest tools. We ship now Plasma 5.17 desktop in combination with the latest KDE-Apps 19.12. One of the most obvious changes is the completely rewritten notification system that comes with a 'Do Not Disturb' mode, a more intelligent history which groups notifications together, and critical notifications in fullscreen apps. Besides many other things, it features better notifications for file transfer jobs, and a much more usable System Settings page to configure all notification-related things.
Our KDE edition provides the powerful, mature and feature-rich Plasma 5.17 desktop environment with a unique look-and-feel which we completely re-designed for this release. The full set of 'Breath2'-themes includes light and dark versions, animated splash-screen, konsole profiles, yakuake skins and many more little details.
We have rounded off text editor kate with some additional color schemes and offer plasma-simplemenu as an alternative to the traditional Kickoff-launcher.
With a wide selection of latest KDE-Apps 19.12.2 and other applications Manjaro-KDE aims to be a versatile and elegant environment ready for all your everyday needs.
With our Gnome edition we have now 3.34 series added. This release features a refreshed visual style ranging from an entirely new set of app icons to improvements to the user interface style. Many of the base style colors have been saturated, giving them a more vivid, vibrant appearance. Buttons are more rounded and have a softer 'shadow' border. Switches no longer use the explicit ON and OFF text, instead using color to indicate state. Additionally, several improvements to data structures in the GNOME Desktop led to noticeable frame rate improvements. This results in a faster, snappier feel to the animations, icons and top 'shell' panel. Searching in many GNOME apps is faster now too, thanks to major performance enhancements to the GNOME search database.
