I configured one wallpaper per desktop so it would be easy to tell the current desk top. I had to learn all about this plasma thingey because without a full understanding, you only had one "activity" (wtf?) so only one wallpaper. I have always used a very short right-click menu to select programs I use a lot (viz. konsole). Nope. Can't do that any more. Yes, I know that everything is configurable, but the "standard menu" is not. You can select or deselect certain things, but you cannot add to it. So, I am sure there is a way, but I do not have hours and hours to go exploring featuritis run amok to fix something that used to be obvious and easy to do. And do not get me started on konsole remembering the size of the last window of any sort and snapping to that size. *That* is fixed now, but that *was* worth the hours of effort it took to stop that completely horrible misfeature. Please, for God's sake, make new wizbang thingies optional and stop obscuring things that people rely on. Thank you. Sorry. I'm not always a grump. I just wanted my right-click-for-konsole back. ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
