Grouping Desktop


Grouping Desktop er en type af aktivitet til Plasma-brugerfladerne. Den lader dig gruppere de widgets, som du placerer på dit skrivebord på forskellige måder.

Efter at du har installeret det, så kan du vælge Grouping Desktop som din aktivitet fra skrivebordsindstillingerne. Klik på skrivebords-værktøjskassen og vælg Indstilling af skrivebord. Her vælger du afsnittet Aktivitet og i dropned-listen Layout vælger du Grouping Desktop. Klik på O.k., så du har et Grouping Desktop!

Du kan også tilfæje en ny aktivitet direkte i aktivitetsmanageren ved at vælge Ny aktivitet og herefter Grouping Desktop.


Grid Desktop

Grid Desktop er en anden type aktivitet; den giver dig et gitter, hvor du kan placere dine widgets og grupper. Når du laver en en ny aktivitet af typen Grid Desktop, så får du et gitter med celler af standardstørrelse, men du kan altid tilføje og fjerne rækker og søjler, så du kan have lige så mange celler, som du ønsker og i den størrelse du vil have.

Du kan tilføje et nyt Grid Desktop på samme måde som med Grouping Desktop.

To see how to manage the grid and its contents look at the Grid Group section.

Here you can see a video demonstration.

Grouping Panel

Grouping Panel is a panel with support for grouping your widgets.

You can add a Grouping Panel by clicking on the desktop toolbox and then on Add Panel. Then select Grouping Panel from the list. You can then move and configure the new panel as if it were a normal one.

Groups

The groups are special items which can be used to group other items, widgets or other groups. There are several types of groups, all with a different way of grouping their items. Moving, rotating or removing a group will propagate the action to its items.

  • Floating Group: Leaves the widgets you put inside it free to move as if they were on the default desktop.
  • Grid Group: Puts its items in a grid.
  • Stacking Group: Places its children one over the other, with every one of them moved a little to show the one under it.
  • Tabbing Group: Creates one or more pages of widgets selectable by a tab bar. Every page puts its children inside a grid.
  • Flow Group: Puts its items in a row or column.

Grid Group

When creating a Grid Group it will create by default a certain number of rows and columns.

If you want to add or remove a row move your cursor to the top or bottom edge of the group. If you want to manage your columns move it to the left or the right side. A thin strip will appear with two buttons: one that adds and one that removes a row or a column.

When you drop a widget in a Grid Group it will try to keep its size occupying as many cells as needed. You can anyway resize a widget already dropped: move the mouse cursor over the widget you want to resize and you'll see a little square appearing over a corner of the widget. Dragging it will result in the corner being dragged, with the opposite one staying still. All the corners can be dragged.

Adding a Group

To add a new group click with the right button of the mouse on a Grouping Desktop, on a Grid Desktop or on a Grouping Panel. Then select Add a New Group, which will cause a list of groups to appear. You can then add a group as you add a widget, dropping it over the desktop or panel.

You can add widgets in the new group moving an already created widget over it or dropping one from the widget selector. As you put a widget inside a group you can remove it simply by dragging it.
