Bug or feature?

[wyohman]

I've just recently noticed that my recently run programs list doesn't show the name of the program but instead gives the description:

I run ktorrent and I get "bittorrent client"
kwrite is "text editor"
knetwalk is "Network Construction Game"
kcalc is "Scientific Calculator"

Can someone tell me if this is a bug or a feature I need to change?

Cheers.

I see the same behaviour, but if I hover the mouse pointer over the description I get the real name of the app as a tooltip, so this is something I won't want to change.

Right click the PC button and click application launcher menu settings

The pick the options category on the left underneath the icon you can decide the format for the menu

Name Only
Description Only
Name Description
Description (Name)
Name - Description

The one you want is Name Only

It's the default in KDE4 to have Descriptions Only so it may have been reset by the update....

Having the application's icons beside the "description only" is informative enough for me.
