I have try to get a list of actives screens by using dbus and executeing `desktops()` at the PlasamaShell.

But I did get a loot of desktpos, with are not connected.

Code: Select all

First I had thought I could check if `screen >= 0` but this does not match witch the count of connected monitors.
Exist their any option, to determine, with desktop is active? So I can set a special wallpaper to it?

Hi!

You can get the virtual desktops using

Code: Select all

qdbus --literal org.kde.KWin /VirtualDesktopManager org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get org.kde.KWin.VirtualDesktopManager desktops
# or all properties using
qdbus --literal org.kde.KWin /VirtualDesktopManager org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.GetAll org.kde.KWin.VirtualDesktopManager


But I think you are looking for Activities instead:

Code: Select all

qdbus org.kde.ActivityManager /ActivityManager/Activities org.kde.ActivityManager.Activities.ListActivities


Wallpapers are set per Activity afaik.
