Version: (using KDE 4.1.1) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I would like to be able to easily show the desktop. What I'd like to have is being able to just flick the mouse in some screen corner triggering a show desktop. I know there are the Show Desktop and Show Dashboard applets and also a shortcut for at least the Show Dashboard thing. But that's not what I meant with easy ;) Hitting those or remembering and using weired shortcuts is way more complicated than just hitting a screen corner. Also IMHO configuring this alongside such things as present windows or desktop grid makes a lot more sense, than possibly a config dialog in the Show Desktop applet. Of course this also lends itself to a new effect plugin ;) IIRC Compiz nicely moves all windows away from the screen center towards the edges and further, until only a few percent are still visible, nicely faded of course.

SVN commit 933166 by lmurray: Add support for hardcoded non-KWin-related active screen edge actions, first to be added is one to display the Plasma dashboard. Implemented the "trigger cooldown" option. Fixed a few edge action conflicts such as forcing desktop switches when moving windows and the like.
