Description Maciej Pilichowski 2006-06-21 21:33:23 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Take a look at the "Desktop", "window behavior" module. I think that option like "poup desktop name on desktop switch" should be moved (or cloned) to multiple desktops:
a) it only make sense when there are >= desktops, and that is configured in MD module
b) it is counterintuitive to search desktop behavior in window behavior module

Anyway, I spend some time looking for that option, and only closed wish-report about that assured me that this option (popup desktop name) has to be somewhere ;-D

The multiple desktops configuration is provided by kcmxinerama. Reassigning to the closest matching product/component I can find...

moves the option from "window behavior" to "multiple desktops"

Hi

I've made a patch that moves the option from "window behavior" to "multiple desktops".
It's my first patch so let me know if I did some mistakes.

I am going to redo all kwin kcms with Qt Designer for KDE 4.4 and will
integrate this feature.

SVN commit 995230 by graesslin:

Rework of the multiple desktops kcm.
Now it uses a ui file which makes it easier to maintain.
It brings together all options for multiple desktops. That is:
 * number of desktops
 * pager layout
 * activity per desktop
 * desktop names
 * desktop effect for switching animation
 * OSD on desktop switch
 * Shortcuts for desktop changing

The plasma options (pager and activity) are still missing and currently disabled.
