Description Dan Weatherill 2008-07-17 21:39:53 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Not sure if this is more a bug or translation issue....

When removing an activity by right clicking on it whilst plasma activities are "zoomed out", the menu item is called "remove this desktop". This is mis-named. Desktops are the collections of windows. This item should be called "remove this activity". It should also be available via the cashew menu. This is confusing for users who are not used to the multiple desktop paradigm, and for users who are used to multiple desktops, but don't understand the difference between plasma activities and desktops. 

Thanks

additionally:

since wallpapers also appear to be "per activity" rather than "per desktop" now, the right click menu item "desktop settings" should probably be renamed "current activity settings"

it's the plugin's name, actually. this will make more sense once there are other activity types.

the desktop settings entry is also not relevant anymore due to 4.2 developments.
