[SOLVED] how to hide all plasmoids

Mon Apr 13, 2009 9:18 am
Hello,

I have a simple question about plasmoids : how can I hidden all plasmoids when any windows are opened, to see only the wallpaper ? And these plasmoids are displayed only when I do Ctrl+F12 to display dashboard.
It's possible ?

Thanks for your responses

PS: I have KDE 4.2.2.

I think you can't. However, you can create a new activity without plasmoids, and switch between activities (use the activities switcher plasmoid, or Ctrl-Shift-p, Ctrl-Shift-n on the dashboard).

No idea. My personal opinion is that it would be kind of superfluous, since Activities are meant for this purpose: allowing you to have different plasma environments while retaining your virtual desktops. So you can already achieve what you want, but instead of hiding plasmoids you switch to another activity. The result would be exactly the same though....

Like in Mac OS X? Sure you can. HOWTO.

In KDE 4.3, there'll be a GUI for this option.
