Version: (using KDE 4.0.0) Installed from: SuSE RPMs I can make pager display number of desktop but name is not possible to choose. I wish to see name of each desktop over it's miniature in applet. What we must consider when adding this is: 1) New combobox in settings instead of current checkbox 2) Names are usually quite long, at least longer than width of miniature of desktop. We should increase width of miniature to the width of longest name. Although we shouldn't do that when panel is on left or right because space is quite limited then. 3) When calculating width of miniature we should add some additional pixels to add margin between text and borders 4) Since we increase only one dimension, we have to split m_scaleFactor into m_widthScaleFactor and m_heightScaleFactor
I'm working on patch for this, 50% work is done. Will post patch when ready (about week I hope).

Just like to add that this is a fairly major usability bug for me. I use desktop names all the time in KDE 3.5 and not having them in the pager is a real bummer.
Patrick O'Callaghan: I'm glad my fix was useful :) Patch was applied to trunk branch so you may be 99% sure to see this feature in KDE 4.1.
