Description H.H. 2009-05-16 00:06:45 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.85)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

all my settings for classic menu were discarded after switching to kickoff-style and back (symbol, history-entry-count, display name only, show titles)

This is a known issue of the current implementation as "Switch" is implemented as "remove and add a new X launcher", so all the settings are lost. 
I actually made a setting to not lost the keyboard shortcut, but it needs to be improved a lot. 
Regards
