Desktops (solved)
« on: February 26, 2010, 06:57:21 PM »
Can you display the desktops in the kicker panel with kde4 because for the life of me i cannot find out how to do it?
I know you can put running programs to desktop 1 or 2 ect but i like to see them in the panel,do i have to use a widget to do this?

Yes. The widget is called the "Pager". There are, however several other ways of previewing all your desktops. The panel, though, isn't called "kicker" anymore.

Be sure to add the "Pager" to the Panel. You can put a Pager widget on the desktop, but I doubt that is where you want it.  ;D
