Take a Look Here +====== + +[KDE Plasma 5.24][1] was an interesting upgrade with an updated breeze theme and the new overview effect. + +Now, the developers have geared up to introduce exciting new features for KDE Plasma 5.25. + +### KDE Plasma 5.25: What’s New? + +In a blog post by Nate Graham, some of the most intriguing changes were highlighted. Let us take a look at them here. + +#### Ability to Selectively Apply the Global Theme + +![Credits: Pointiestick Blog / Nate Graham][2] + +When you proceed to apply a Global Theme from the system settings, you will be prompted to confirm if you want the theme to be applied everywhere or to certain parts of it. + +For instance, you may not want to change the cursors and icons but the window background and application style. + +Overall, you get more control when applying the Global Theme to your KDE-powered system. + +Impressive work by **Dominic Hayes** for this [merged commit][3]. + +#### Auto-Generated Accent Based on Current Wallpaper + +Having the ability to choose a custom or a preset accent is already good enough. + +With KDE Plasma 5.25, they are getting one step ahead by giving the option to generate and select an accent color based on the current wallpaper. + +And, it all happens automatically as you change the wallpaper, given that you have the option enabled. + +You can find the option to enable it here: + +![Credits: Pointiestick Blog / Nate Graham][4] + +So, if you want something to match your background, you do not have to tweak around the custom accent colors to get it right. This should make things easier. + +A small but mighty addition to the arsenal of new features. All thanks to **Tanbir Jishan** for this [merged commit][5]. + +#### Tint Color Scheme with Accent Color + +For even greater customization to the look/feel, KDE Plasma 5.25 will let you add a tint to your selected accent color. + +![Credits: Jan Blackquill][6] + +You can enable/disable it if you like the user experience with the tinted theme. + +To explore more about this change in the [merged commit][7] by **Jan Blackquill**. + +#### Create Desktop Files for Flatpak/Snap Applications + +Initially, sandboxed applications like Flatpak and Snap did not have the support for desktop files on KDE. + +Thanks to a new **Dynamic launcher** portal (via [merged commit][8] by Harald Sitter). It allows you to create and edit .desktop files for seamless system integration with sandboxed applications. + +#### Improvements to Discover + +There are some subtle changes to the Discover software center where you can find all the application categories in the sidebar without needing to navigate through categories like “Applications”, “Add-ons”, and “Plasma Add-ons” separately. + +KDE Discover Before vs After (Credits: **[Taavi Juursalu][9]**) + +Use the cursor to slide through the before/after in the images above. + +To explore more about the change, head to its [merged request][10]. + +#### Other Improvements + +There are several other refinements and changes planned for KDE Plasma 5.25. Some of them include: + + * Improvements to the performance of KRunner + * Network widget adds details for frequency and BSSID of the Wi-Fi network + + + +You can look at all the bug fixes and technical improvements in [Nate’s blog post][11]. + +_Exciting about KDE Plasma 5.25? Well, with these feature additions, I am eagerly awaiting its release.
