--- Comment #2 from Jeff Brown <jeffbrown....@gmail.com> --- Thanks for responding so fast. Maybe this is all perfectly readable and human-editable and I just haven't found the documentation specifying how changes in the GUI map to changes in the configuration language. Is that the case? I wish I could modify those config files, or copy them (or passages from them) from elsewhere, and expect it to work. There are two reasons I currently can't: (1) I tried it and broke KDE. I had to reinstall my OS. I wish I could easily repeat variations on that experiment but I can't. (2) It's not clear which files to copy or modify, or where, or how. Where are the zoom settings kept? The language settings? The number and layout of desktops settings? The setting that swaps Capslock and Esc? If I grep for the word "shortcut" I only find this passage in `~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc`. I've configured a lot of shortcuts and none of them are here: ``` [Containments][2][Applets][3][Configuration][Shortcuts] global=Alt+F1 [Containments][2][Applets][3][Shortcuts] global=Alt+F1 ``` Searching for "desktop" is even harder to make sense of: ``` find . -iname "*plasma*" -print0 | xargs -0 grep -i desktop ./plasmashellrc:performed=/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/unlock_widgets.js,/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/systemloadviewer_systemmonitor.js,/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/maintain_existing_desktop_icon_sizes.js,/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/containmentactions_middlebutton.js,/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/obsolete_kickoffrc.js,/run/current-system/sw/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/updates/move_desktop_layout_config.js ./plasmanotifyrc:[Applications][telegramdesktop] ./plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc:wheel:Vertical;NoModifier=org.kde.switchdesktop ./plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc:plugin=org.kde.plasma.showdesktop ``` My system is currently configured for two activities. If I search for "activity" there are four hits in ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc. What do they mean? ``` [Containments][1] ItemGeometriesHorizontal= activityId=cb054e74-0743-40ef-a67e-796691eb4c30 formfactor=0 immutability=1 lastScreen=0 location=0 plugin=org.kde.plasma.folder wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image [Containments][19] ItemGeometriesHorizontal= activityId=74ea37e7-0d78-4216-9788-e9b9ededb800 formfactor=0 immutability=1 lastScreen=0 location=0 plugin=org.kde.plasma.folder wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image [Containments][2] activityId= formfactor=2 immutability=1 lastScreen=0 location=4 plugin=org.kde.panel wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image [Containments][8] activityId= formfactor=2 immutability=1 lastScreen=0 location=4 plugin=org.kde.plasma.private.systemtray wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image ``` -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
