Description alxgvr 2016-12-05 08:43:03 UTC
Hi. I can stick Application Launcher for hot corner (Screen Edges in Desktop Behavior).
I would love to have same option for Application Dashboard.

Can you add Application Dashboard to Screen Edges list of actions?
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2016-12-07 18:22:20 UTC
Not sure if it needs changes in KWin code.
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2016-12-20 01:41:49 UTC
You already can.

Set a corner to "Application Launcher"
Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2016-12-21 02:35:05 UTC
That's what he wrote. But he wants the Dashboard, not the Launcher, independed of what the Kicker icon opens.
Comment 4 Alexander Mentyu 2017-08-27 16:59:23 UTC
Cannot reproduce - both Kicker and Dashboard are launched from screen edge - depending on what is currently selected as app launcher. Entry in 'Screen Edges' KCM can be - 'Currently Selected Application Launcher' instead of just 'Application Launcher'.

Comment 5 Christoph Feck 2017-09-19 22:59:51 UTC
In other words, it is not possible to use both the the Launcher (using the start icon) and the Dashboard (using a screen edget). This is what this feature request is about.
Comment 6 Alexander Mentyu 2017-12-05 14:44:06 UTC
This wish also may be transferred to 'kdeplasma-addons' -> 'Application Dashboard' section or to 'kwin'
