Description Dylan Frese 2015-12-14 18:37:38 UTC
I would like to see an option on the pager to only show windows from the current screen (on multi-monitor setups). Specifically, the pager currently shows a simplified and scaled down view of all open windows on all open screens. Adding a second monitor stretches the pager widget to the width of both screens. Workflows that have a window always open on all desktops on the second monitor, for example, would benefit, as showing that window on the pager is visual noise.

Reproducible: Always

Good idea.

Will add.

Pushed by hein into branch 'master'.

Add an option to limit the Pager to the current screen.

Summary:
The Pager's display normally encompasses all connected screens
and shows windows on all of them. This adds an option that
restricts display to the plasmoid.screenGeometry rectangle and
enables window filtering for it in the backend.

By user request.

Completely untested as I only have one monitor.
