 Very confusingI'm running Mepis 8.5 and I'm trying to learn/enable/set up/use... multiple desktops.
I found this documentation.... Multiple Desktops Many of the things I'm reading do not match what I see on my system. For example...
Is there a better place to find out about Multiple Desktops ? _________________ "Life is short.... Drink the Good Wine first" |

Re: Very confusing I am no longer running MEPIS 8.5, but I think in both cases you might have to first "unlock widgets" from the right-click menu or from the cashew in the upper right corner.

Re: Very confusing
that is correct for KDE 4.3 and you do not have to unlock widgets, The link in your post is for KDE3xx, not KDE4 try this one. http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php? ... E4_desktop also take a look at this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coVWJYms ... re=related You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. _________________ *Never be afraid to try something new.

Re: Very confusing
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Still confused. I found your reference (attachment) and the "Multiple Desktops" under System Settings --> Desktop... Not System Settings --> Display... I also read a reference to left-clicking the "Cashew" and selecting Zoom out. I did not know to use the Cashew in the upper right so when I tried this with the Cashew down below there was no Zoom-out option. But, I've already learned a few things. I'm getting closer. Thanks !! _________________ "Life is short.... Drink the Good Wine first" |
