Description AndyKluger 2019-02-20 20:50:15 UTC 
SUMMARY

Two existing actions would be a natural fit for this feature of the pager:

- Present windows -- current desktop
- Desktop grid ( org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kwin org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component.invokeShortcut ShowDesktopGrid )

The only options right now are:

- do nothing
- show current desktop

What do you mean by actions? In the context menu?

Context menu actions would be a nice bonus, but no, I'm referring to the option as listed in this report's title: "Selecting current desktop" -- where there are currently exactly two options as listed in the report.

I've now attached a screenshot of the setting this report intends to discuss to eliminate any ambiguities.

Like the effect that is displayed when pressing CTRL+F9?
That really makes sense. That would be great.
