The set of predefined activities was not meant as a solution for the auto-assigned icon stuff, I just intended that as a default set of most used activities. But anyway as you make me notice it's not the best way to go :) > 3. Showing the configuration dialogue on creation is a possibility > that I have nothing against.

I really don't see the point of them, but, again, i might be completely wrong. Having just one generic activity icon would force the user to choose an appropriate one in order to distinguish among them and I feel this is ok rather than unmeaningful auto-generated ones. In addition to this, wWhat would be really awesome is having an "icon-guess-system" based on the type of plasmoids the user loads in the activites. But, again, probably only guessing on plasmoid types is not enough. > Cheerio > Regards
