Changelog

0.6

The Plasmoid now finally docks in the panel using Plasma.PopupApplet.
New icon! (cut’n'paste from other icons – hmmm).
Only import required parts of the used modules. The functionalities such as System Notifications and Network monitoring are now separate classes which makes them reusable in my other Plasmoids.
Fail gracefully on wrong KDE SC version.
Fix for not detecting network on some distributions.
Current/last conversion result is now shown in the tool tip when docked in the panel.
Removed collapse/expand because it didn’t work properly and current result can be seen in tooltip.
Added context menu for updating current conversion.
Added configuration for refresh/update interval.
Improved KIO handling.
Notification on network errors.
Much improved error handling when no network connection using Solid. The Plasmoid is now disabled until a connection is established instead of just giving up and dying
Now using the KDE Currency classes (Only works from KDE SC 4.4.4).
Showing Currency name first instead of currency code to make the easier to find in the list.

0.5

Right align labels according to: http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Form_Label_Alignment
Added missing Mexican and Chilean Pesos.
Added tooltip over the logo to show last time updated.
Added some checks for non-accessible methods.

0.4

0.3

Test for network connection.
Hide/show controls. Added the ability to expand or collapse the currency combo boxes if you just want to monitor the exchange rate between two fixed currencies.

0.2

Fixed problem where ComboBox dropdowns were below other widgets.
Code refactoring and cleanup.
Translations automated. For now only Danish translations exists.
Amount validation is localized (in a very simple way – may break in some locales?).
Currency symbols instead of abbreviations (only £, $ and € for now).
Use KIO when getting currency rate to not block the GUI.
Added Clear Button to Amount.
