Make KDE Control Centre Look Like macOS with this Widget
|
||
======
|

A new KDE desktop widget arrives to revamp your KDE Plasma’s system tray (or Control Centre) to make it look like macOS.

**A new KDE desktop widget arrives to revamp your KDE Plasma’s system tray (or Control Centre) to make it look like macOS.**
|
||
|
||
**Note**: This is a beta version of the widget. So, use it with caution.
|
||
|
||
The system tray is where you get most of the notifications, the status of your system and additional menu items for various desktop activities.
|
||
|
||
Recently, the tray menu has been a hot topic. GNOME 43 recently revamped its decade-old design to a new pill-shaped quick intuitive settings.
|
||
|
||
In the KDE Plasma desktop, the default system tray menu may not feel appealing from a look standpoint. Although it is rich in functionalities such as you can get access to all necessary system features and tweaks from here.
|
||
|
||
However, thanks to KDE’s customization capabilities, a new desktop widget is available now to give a macOS-like system tray menu.
|
||
|
||
### New Widget: Control Centre for KDE
|
||
|
||
Named “Control Centre”, the widget is currently in BETA and under development.
|
||
|
||
However, you can still install it on KDE Plasma desktops in various distros such as Kubuntu, KDE Neon, Arch with KDE, Fedora KDE edition, etc.
|
||
|
||
Here’s how it looks.
|
||
|
||
![Full desktop look with new widget][1]
|
||
|
||
Installation is simple.
|
||
|
||
* Right click on the KDE Plasma desktop, and select `Add Widgets`.
|
||
* Then click on `Get More Widgets > Download more Plasma widgets` and search for “Control Centre”. Hit `Install` to install it.
|
||
|
||
![Installing the Control Centre Widget][2]
|
||
|
||
* After installation, right-click on the small arrow in the default tray panel and click Add Widgets. Select the “Control Centre” from the list.
|
||
* Once it is available in the Panel, drag it to any place you want via “Enter Edit Mode”.
|
||
|
||
As of publishing this, there any only the below options available. Such as quick launchers for Settings, Network, and Night mode. Also available is a banner for currently playing media (via desktop or browser-based players) is also available with volume control.
|
||
|
||
![Control Center – Zoomed view][3]
|
||
|
||
Although, the widget may not look good with the default KDE’s Breeze theme. However, looks fantastic with any available macOS Plasma Global theme, such as the WhiteSur theme (which I used in the above screenshots).
|
||
|
||
I hope many new features are planned for the future of this macOS, like Control Centre. It looks promising.
|
||
|
||
Learn more about this widget in the [KDE Store][4] Or on [GitHub][5].
|
||
|
||
Cheers.
