Description Andres Betts 2021-05-23 16:58:01 UTC

I wanted to suggest adding more actions to the addition of new virtual desktops on the Virtual Desktop KCM. Renaming is currently only possible when clicking the edit button, instead, it would be consistent and helpful to also have double click on the desktop name for quick renaming and pressing ESC for saving the change or exiting the action.

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/1026 changed the rename behavior a bit. Now the name is always saved, not only when enter is pressed.

Double clicking to rename seems like a good idea though

Thanks Nico!

In fact double-click to rename was just done in Bug 421882.

Esc to confirm the change seems bad; typically Esc is used for discarding a change. Enter/Return are used for confirming it, and I also just now added a visible button to confirm the change. Hopefully that should be good enough. :)
