Make sure your widgets are unlocked and then choose Add Widgets.

Once the Add Widget window opens, enter show in the filter/search box and the Show Desktop should be listed.

Double click on it to add it to your panel - move to desired location

I enter "show" in the search box.
There is no "Show Desktop" widget listed.   :(

Check in Synaptic that you have kde-plasma-addons installed.

This package and widget was previously installed, but got broken by kde update.
Thx for fixing.
