ReportedBy: Ben.Kevan@... Version: 1.0 (using KDE 4.3.3) OS: Linux Installed from: openSUSE RPMs I actually consider this a regression (bug) and not a feature request as there is lost functionality. I recently switched form GNOME to KDE (previously I was a KDE 3.5.10 user).. I went to configure "Multiple Desktops" with the KWin Compositing and was all happy.. Except I wanted 1 row of desktops with 4 desktops. I went into systemsettings --> Desktop --> Multiple Desktops, and the configuration was not there.. I later found out I had to setup the pager plasmoid (which I previously removed since I use the Kwin effects to change, and do not rely on the pager usage). However, I had to add the pager plasmoid to configure my multiple desktops to my configuration noted above. I then removed the panel plasmoid, and again my configurations were lost. It seems barbaric that to configure multiple desktops to my liking (and keep these settings) I am required to have the pager plasmoid running somewhere. These configurations should be set within systemsettings --> Desktop --> Multiple Desktops and should be configurable by both systemsettings and the pager plasmoid not by ONLY one or the other. In previous versions of KDE3 this was available within both. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It is actually added but requires some work in Plasma. Unfortunately the relevant specification requires that the layout is set by the pager and not by the window manager. So even if the option is moved to multiple desktop kcm you will need the pager plasmoid. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

You can configure the layout to use: 1. the pager 2. "automatic" 3. personalized. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I understand that work between kcm / plasmoids is currently underway. Anyway.. I'm talking about any "workspace" layout, and not just the desktop grid. The same configuration is true with "Desktop Cube" along with the "Desktop Grid". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
