Description M. Sadeq H. E. 2019-03-08 14:23:57 UTC

It is a feature request.

Currently it is possible to disable/enable [Extra Items] in KDE System Tray Widget's configuration.

Consider I have multiple keyboard layouts, and I want to add two System Tray Widgets on the panel, the first widget should display a [Keyboard Layout] and the second widget should display [Hardware Control] items such as [Printers]. But unfortunately there is no option to disable [Keyboard Layout] for the second widget, and the second widget will display a duplicated [Keyboard Layout].

I need to be able to enable/disable [Keyboard Layout] in [Extra Items]. Is it possible to do it currently by editing any .qml file or config file?

This is an interesting workflow. However I'm having a hard time understanding the problem that you're trying to solve that leads you to set things up this way. Why do you want two system trays? Why not just use one? What's the disadvantage?
