Version: (using KDE 4.0.82) option for showing on/off labels for icons on the desktop Well, it is probably the matter of taste, but since KDE4 is so polished in visual terms I consider removing (not showing) labels very useful. Trashcan, Konq, OO are so recognizable icons that there is no need to label them -- and without labels desktop will look more stunning (after all, plasmoids do not have labels and plasma toolbox plasmoid does not have either). So, wish is -- one global option for turning labels on/off, for objects placed on desktop.

Hello! This feature request was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this feature request is already implemented in Plasma 5, or is no longer applicable. Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this feature request. If the requested feature is still desired but not implemented in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging Thanks for your understanding!
