==Using IRC to get help== <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
Here are a few tips on asking questions, especially in #kde on Freenode, in a way that is more likely to get answers:<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
* '''Don't ask to ask, just ask''': the irc.freenode.net channel #kde is a user support channel, so we expect your questions - go right ahead {{smiley}}.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
* '''Be ready with as much relevant details about your system as you can find''': Questions you are likely to be asked are:</translate><br />
<translate><br />
<!--T:53--><br />
** What distribution do you use (and what version?) e.g. Kubuntu 18.04</translate><br />
<translate><br />
<!--T:54--><br />
** what version of Plasma you are running &mdash; if you don't know, open '''Konsole''' and type <code>plasmashell --version</code> and look at the version number given there</translate><br />
<translate><br />
<!--T:55--><br />
** how you installed it &mdash; mostly likely from your distribution repositories. <br />
<br />
<!--T:48--><br />
You probably won't need to give all of this information straight away, but if you know how to find it quickly it often helps<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
* '''Try to do some troubleshooting yourself before asking''': Google is your friend (entering error messages into Google often finds something useful). You should also take a look at [[Special:myLanguage/Troubleshooting|Troubleshooting KDE Problems]] - the advice there is probably what you'll be told in #kde anyway, so try it first {{smiley}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* '''Also, try to make sure that the problem you're having is a problem with KDE software''' and not some other component of your system (for example, a problem with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System X] or with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture ALSA]). If possible, try an alternative, non-KDE application to see whether the problem also occurs there. Of course, if you're not sure, please ask.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* '''Use [http://forum.kde.org/ the Forum]'''. Try asking a question on [http://forum.kde.org/ the forum]. If the discussion brings up interesting information you might add it to UserBase, so that it can help others.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
* '''Be prepared to wait!''' Often on IRC, someone will notice your question a little while after you ask it, so wait around for a while after you ask. There's nothing more annoying than typing out a long answer for someone, only to realise that they left 3 minutes after asking their question! In some cases there could be hours between your question being asked and someone who knows the answer coming on-line (remember that KDE users are all over the world) so sometimes you just have to ask again at a different time of day.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* '''If you don't get an answer on #kde, you can also try the channel for your distribution''' (eg, #suse, #kde-freebsd, etc), or an appropriate mailing list: see [http://lists.kde.org lists.kde.org] or forum.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
* '''Above all, be patient and polite.''' Remember that the people who help are all volunteers, and could be spending their time doing other things than helping.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
If your problem is with sound, you might want to first read [[Special:myLanguage/Sound_Problems|Sound Problems]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
If your question relates to development, please see [http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute KDE TechBase's contribute page]<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
Because KDE is so actively developed, changes arrive very frequently, so don't be surprised if you can't find any written information. Ask in IRC, the Forum or a mailing list, and when you have an answer, register an account on UserBase and add the information to the relevant page. At the same time as learning about your system you will be helping others do the same {{smiley}}<br />
<br />
== The Forums == <!--T:44--><br />
<br />
<!--T:45--><br />
Another great place to get help is the [http://forum.kde.org/ KDE Community Forums]. It is always a good idea to search the forums first. Maybe your question has already been answered. If not, find an appropriate forum and start a thread. Don't expect an immediate answer, but remember to come back regularly to participate in the discussion as it gets going. Remember that the forums are run by users like yourself. <br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
The KDE Community forums offer a "guided post" feature that can help you post your question in the appropriate forum, increasing the chance of having it seen by people knowledgeable on the matter. It is accessible as a large "New Post" button on the forums' homepage, so if you have any doubts, that is the place to start.<br />
<br />
<!--T:51--><br />
The forums have an extensive search feature: prior to posting try finding if your question has already been answered, or there are hints that might help you solve your issue. If there is no satisfactory solution for your problem, make a new post. To search, enter keywords in the upper right box of any forum page. By default this will search the whole forums. For extended searches, click on the "Search" link under the "KDE Community Forums" banner. <br />
<br />
<!--T:52--><br />
If your question has been properly answered, consider marking a topic as "solved". It is a very little step, but quite helpful for other users and staff, because it tells them that there are no more issues. To mark a topic as solved, choose the topic with the best answer in the thread, and click the green tick mark under it. If you go back to the topic list you will notice a green tick mark next to the topic's title as well. <br />
<br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
Most distributions have forums of their own; these can also be valuable. The web pages of your distribution should provide links to its forums.<br />
<br />
==Operating-System-Specific Questions== <!--T:14--><br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
For questions relating to the desktop use of Plasma with a particular operating system (OS), you can try the above methods, but unless the question directly involves KDE software or KDE/GNU/Linux you are unlikely to find the answer. ''If your question does not directly involve KDE, please do not post the question on the "normal" KDE mailing lists''. An example of questions that do not directly involve KDE is "''my sound card does not work''". In that case, please direct your questions at sites devoted to helping users of that system. For example, for GNU/Linux questions you may try looking at [http://www.linuxnewbie.org www.linuxnewbie.org] or [http://www.linuxnewbie.com www.linuxnewbie.com], or the [http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-linux kde-linux] mailing list mentioned above.<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
If you are not using GNU/Linux, you might want to try the [http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-nonlinux kde-nonlinux] [mailto:kde-nonlinux-subscribe@kde.org?subject=subscribe (subscribe)] mailing list. Also particularly useful are searches on your favorite search engine, such as [http://www.google.com/ Google], and searches on the [http://groups.google.com/ Usenet archives].<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
In addition, many OS distributors have their own mailing lists which can address distribution-specific issues. You can find out more about these mailing lists at your distribution's website or find them through your browser search engine.<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
If you are searching for packages you may consider checking the ftp servers for your distribution, including the "contrib" sections, as well as indexing servers such as rpmfind.net. Wherever possible, install the package that your distro offers directly through its package manager.<br />

==Reporting KDE Bugs== <!--T:18--><br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
Reporting bugs is a small but valuable contribution to KDE, and there's a website where you can report any bug or feature request you have about KDE: [http://bugs.kde.org/ bugs.kde.org]. The only requirement on your side is basic knowledge of English. With that, and following some additional guidelines, you'll be able to report helpful bug reports and thus help the whole KDE community and yourself.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
The first thing you need is to open an account in the website. You can start [https://bugs.kde.org/createaccount.cgi here]. Once you have a validated account, you can report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
There are usually two different situations to report a bug:<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
* You notice something which is not working properly or not working at all, a bad design, a missed functionality... If this is your case, open the application <menuchoice>Help -> Report Bug...</menuchoice> menu. You will then be guided to [http://bugs.kde.org bugs.kde.org]. Some information will be automatically picked up, like the application version number.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
* Your program disappears and another window appears named "The KDE crash Handler". Don't get scared! You will be guided to efficiently report this crash. The link in the dialog "Learn more about bug reporting" will explain you the process. If you choose to report the problem, click on <menuchoice>Report Bug</menuchoice> and an assistant will guide you through the steps. The requisite to report a crash is to have your distribution debug packages installed in order to provide a valid backtrace.<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
And these are a few tips on how to write good bug reports:<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
* Write it in English. You can switch every KDE application language through <menuchoice>Help -> Switch Application Language...</menuchoice>, so go there and choose American English as the primary language. Then restart the application. That can help you in explaining what happens.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
* Be specific. One bug per report only! Do not mix different problems in the same report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
* Be clear. Explain the steps that lead to the bug so that we can reproduce them easily.<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
* Include screenshots: a picture is worth many words so attach a screenshot to the bug report. You can use [[Special:mylanguage/KSnapshot|KSnapshot]] to take screenshots. Also, do not link to an external web link which can expire, use the Attachments link at the bottom of the bug report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
* Include the backtrace within the bug report as a comment, it makes it easier to find duplicates for us (do not attach the backtrace as a text file).<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
* Clearly separate facts from speculation: only describe what happens. For a design problem, include a mock-up if possible.<br />
<br />
<!--T:42--><br />
If you are testing trunk or the beta, if you kept your precedent settings, sometimes you will want to check with a new user.<br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
Also notice that [http://forums.kde.org Forums] have a [http://forum.kde.org/viewforum.php?f=201 section about Beta Releases].<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
A good guide to bug reporting can be found [http://blogs.fsfe.org/myriam/2011/10/when-is-a-bug-report-useful/ here].</translate><br />

'''How to open a console'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
Typically when reporting a problem in IRC or on a mailing list, your helpers will ask you to open a console. A console is a text-based window that you can use to give commands for your computer to execute. You can open a console by typing <keycap>Alt + Space</keycap>. An input box called '''Krunner''' opens. Type the following to open a console:</translate><br />
{{input|1=konsole}}<br />
<br />
<translate><!--T:24--><br />
If this does not work, you may not have it installed. In this case, type <keycap>Alt + F2</keycap> and input:</translate><br />
{{input|1=xterm}}<br />

In some cases there could be hours between your question being asked and someone who knows the answer coming on-line (remember that KDE users are all over the world) so sometimes you just have to ask again at a different time of day.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* '''If you don't get an answer on #kde, you can also try the channel for your distribution''' (eg, #suse, #kde-freebsd, etc), or an appropriate mailing list: see [http://lists.kde.org lists.kde.org] or forum.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
* '''Above all, be patient and polite.''' Remember that the people who help are all volunteers, and could be spending their time doing other things than helping.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
If your problem is with sound, you might want to first read [[Special:myLanguage/Sound_Problems|Sound Problems]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
If your question relates to development, please see [http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute KDE TechBase's contribute page]<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
Because KDE is so actively developed, changes arrive very frequently, so don't be surprised if you can't find any written information. Ask in IRC, the Forum or a mailing list, and when you have an answer, register an account on UserBase and add the information to the relevant page. At the same time as learning about your system you will be helping others do the same {{smiley}}<br />
<br />
== The Forums == <!--T:44--><br />
<br />
<!--T:45--><br />
Another great place to get help is the [http://forum.kde.org/ KDE Community Forums]. It is always a good idea to search the forums first. Maybe your question has already been answered. If not, find an appropriate forum and start a thread. Don't expect an immediate answer, but remember to come back regularly to participate in the discussion as it gets going. Remember that the forums are run by users like yourself. <br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
The KDE Community forums offer a "guided post" feature that can help you post your question in the appropriate forum, increasing the chance of having it seen by people knowledgeable on the matter. It is accessible as a large "New Post" button on the forums' homepage, so if you have any doubts, that is the place to start.<br />
<br />
<!--T:51--><br />
The forums have an extensive search feature: prior to posting try finding if your question has already been answered, or there are hints that might help you solve your issue. If there is no satisfactory solution for your problem, make a new post. To search, enter keywords in the upper right box of any forum page. By default this will search the whole forums. For extended searches, click on the "Search" link under the "KDE Community Forums" banner. <br />
<br />
<!--T:52--><br />
If your question has been properly answered, consider marking a topic as "solved". It is a very little step, but quite helpful for other users and staff, because it tells them that there are no more issues. To mark a topic as solved, choose the topic with the best answer in the thread, and click the green tick mark under it. If you go back to the topic list you will notice a green tick mark next to the topic's title as well. <br />
<br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
Most distributions have forums of their own; these can also be valuable. The web pages of your distribution should provide links to its forums.<br />
<br />
==Operating-System-Specific Questions== <!--T:14--><br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
For questions relating to the desktop use of Plasma with a particular operating system (OS), you can try the above methods, but unless the question directly involves KDE software or KDE/GNU/Linux you are unlikely to find the answer. ''If your question does not directly involve KDE, please do not post the question on the "normal" KDE mailing lists''. An example of questions that do not directly involve KDE is "''my sound card does not work''". In that case, please direct your questions at sites devoted to helping users of that system. For example, for GNU/Linux questions you may try looking at [http://www.linuxnewbie.org www.linuxnewbie.org] or [http://www.linuxnewbie.com www.linuxnewbie.com], or the [http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-linux kde-linux] mailing list mentioned above.<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
If you are not using GNU/Linux, you might want to try the [http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-nonlinux kde-nonlinux] [mailto:kde-nonlinux-subscribe@kde.org?subject=subscribe (subscribe)] mailing list. Also particularly useful are searches on your favorite search engine, such as [http://www.google.com/ Google], and searches on the [http://groups.google.com/ Usenet archives].<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
In addition, many OS distributors have their own mailing lists which can address distribution-specific issues. You can find out more about these mailing lists at your distribution's website or find them through your browser search engine.<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
If you are searching for packages you may consider checking the ftp servers for your distribution, including the "contrib" sections, as well as indexing servers such as rpmfind.net. Wherever possible, install the package that your distro offers directly through its package manager.<br />

==Reporting KDE Bugs== <!--T:18--><br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
Reporting bugs is a small but valuable contribution to KDE, and there's a website where you can report any bug or feature request you have about KDE: [http://bugs.kde.org/ bugs.kde.org]. The only requirement on your side is basic knowledge of English. With that, and following some additional guidelines, you'll be able to report helpful bug reports and thus help the whole KDE community and yourself.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
The first thing you need is to open an account in the website. You can start [https://bugs.kde.org/createaccount.cgi here]. Once you have a validated account, you can report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
There are usually two different situations to report a bug:<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
* You notice something which is not working properly or not working at all, a bad design, a missed functionality... If this is your case, open the application <menuchoice>Help -> Report Bug...</menuchoice> menu. You will then be guided to [http://bugs.kde.org bugs.kde.org]. Some information will be automatically picked up, like the application version number.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
* Your program disappears and another window appears named "The KDE crash Handler". Don't get scared! You will be guided to efficiently report this crash. The link in the dialog "Learn more about bug reporting" will explain you the process. If you choose to report the problem, click on <menuchoice>Report Bug</menuchoice> and an assistant will guide you through the steps. The requisite to report a crash is to have your distribution debug packages installed in order to provide a valid backtrace.<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
And these are a few tips on how to write good bug reports:<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
* Write it in English. You can switch every KDE application language through <menuchoice>Help -> Switch Application Language...</menuchoice>, so go there and choose American English as the primary language. Then restart the application. That can help you in explaining what happens.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
* Be specific. One bug per report only! Do not mix different problems in the same report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
* Be clear. Explain the steps that lead to the bug so that we can reproduce them easily.<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
* Include screenshots: a picture is worth many words so attach a screenshot to the bug report. You can use [[Special:mylanguage/KSnapshot|KSnapshot]] to take screenshots. Also, do not link to an external web link which can expire, use the Attachments link at the bottom of the bug report.<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
* Include the backtrace within the bug report as a comment, it makes it easier to find duplicates for us (do not attach the backtrace as a text file).<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
* Clearly separate facts from speculation: only describe what happens. For a design problem, include a mock-up if possible.<br />
<br />
<!--T:42--><br />
If you are testing trunk or the beta, if you kept your precedent settings, sometimes you will want to check with a new user.<br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
Also notice that [http://forums.kde.org Forums] have a [http://forum.kde.org/viewforum.php?f=201 section about Beta Releases].<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
A good guide to bug reporting can be found [http://blogs.fsfe.org/myriam/2011/10/when-is-a-bug-report-useful/ here].</translate><br />

'''How to open a console'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
Typically when reporting a problem in IRC or on a mailing list, your helpers will ask you to open a console. A console is a text-based window that you can use to give commands for your computer to execute. You can open a console by typing ALT_F2. An input box opens. Type the following to open a console:</translate><br />
{{input|1=konsole}}<br />
<br />
<translate><!--T:24--><br />
If this does not work, you may not have it installed. In this case, type ALT_F2 and input:</translate><br />
{{input|1=xterm}}<br />

|[[Image:Spectacledefaultscreen.png|350px]]||<br />
'''Spectacle is a utility for taking screenshots'''<br />
|}<br />
<br />
<br />
==Introduction== <br />
<br />
Ever wanted to show the world how awesome KDE software is, that final level you just beat in your game or maybe your virtual fish aquarium? '''Spectacle''' will grab every one of these moments and even let you customize how the final image will look when saved.<br />
<br />
===Launching=== <br />
<br />
If already configured you can start Spectacle with Print Screen (can be also Prt sc) -button of keyboard. Otherwise you can:<br />
*Invoke Spectacle from krunner<br />
*Set the global shortcut on System settings <menuchoice>Shortcut and Gestures -> Global -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts -> khotkeys -component -> PrintScreen-action.</menuchoice> <br />
<br />
==Features== <br />
<br />
<br />
===Screenshot another picture===<br />
<br />
Perhaps you did not like the image that was taken. Luckily you can easily snap another screenshot by clicking on the <menuchoice>Take a New Screenshot</menuchoice> button, as outlined in the picture at the top of this page.<br />
<br />
===Save the image=== <br />
<br />
<br />
What use would this program be if you couldn't save your image afterwards? '''Spectacle''' allows you to save your picture in many file formats. Below is a list of all of them;<br />
<br />
*Windows BMP image (.bmp)<br />
*EPS image (.eps)<br />
*JPEG-2000 image (.jp2)<br />
*JPEG image (.jpeg)<br />
*MNG animation (.mng)<br />
*PBM image (.pbm)<br />
*PCX image (.pcx)<br />
*Softimage PIC image (.pic)<br />
*PNG image (.png)<br />
*PGM image (.pgm)<br />
*PPM image (.ppm)<br />
*RGB image (.rgb)<br />
*TGA image (.tga)<br />
*TIFF image (.tif)<br />
*WBMP image (.wbmp)<br />
*XBM image (.xbm)<br />
*XPM image (.xpm)<br />
<br />
<br />
With regard to what format you should save your image as, this depends on your needs. The most common image formats found today are PNG and JPEG. The other formats are still useful for various other uses.<br />
<br />
===Export Image===<br />
<br />
This allows you to open the image in an external application (such as [[Special:myLanguage/KolourPaint|KolourPaint]] or [[Special:myLanguage/Krita|Krita]]). Perhaps you wish to edit the image or add something to it. Using a external application in this scenario would be a good idea. The image may also be printed.<br />
<br />
Using [[Special:myLanguage/KIPI|KIPI plugins]], the image be sent to a contact by e-mail or [[Special:myLanguage/Kopete|Kopete]], sent to an online gallery such as Flickr or PicasaWeb, or sent to a social networking site, such as Facebook.<br />
<br />
===Copy to clipboard===<br />
<br />
This means that you will be able to paste the image (generally <keycap>Ctrl + V</keycap>) into another program or document that supports image pasting.<br />
<br />
===Capture mode===<br />
<br />
This will further change how the image will look when it's finally saved. Options here include;<br />
<br />
*Full Screen (All Monitors): Everything is captured<br />
*Current Screen: Everything on the current screen is captured<br />
*Active Window: Active Window contents<br />
*Window under cursor: Window contents below the cursor<br />
*Rectangular Region: Capture a rectangular region<br />
<br />
<br />
===Screenshot delay===<br />
<br />
Set a timer here (in seconds). For example putting this up to 10 seconds will make '''Spectacle''' wait 10 seconds until the screenshot is taken. This is particularly useful if you need to capture drop-down menus, or anything else that only responds to a mouse action.<br />

== Introduction == <!--T:1--><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The purpose of publishing software screenshots is to introduce prospective users to the look and feel and to give them an idea of what to expect from the product once they have got it running. Therefore, screen shots should document common usage of the environment and applications, available to users with a standard hardware configuration.<br />
<br />
== Guidelines == <!--T:3--><br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
* Set the language to English, unless it's a localized screenshot.<br />
* Save as a PNG image.<br />
* Preferably, use the default settings (icons, color scheme, style, window decoration, application settings etc.).<br />
* Preferably, use <menuchoice>compositing</menuchoice> (Desktop Effects module in [[Special:myLanguage/System Settings|System Settings]]), but don't worry if your graphics card does not support compositing.<br />
* Preferably, use font "Liberation Sans" at 9pt.<br />
* If the screenshot shows parts of the desktop, preferably use the default background of plasma. Include a margin (around 20 pixels) if possible, to ensure that window shadows don't look cropped.<br />
* If you are preparing a localized screenshot, use the same name as the original English one, with the language-code (the same as you will see on the page address) appended.<br />
* If the screenshot is to update an existing one, use exactly the same name so that the update happens automatically (see [[Special:myLanguage/Update_an_Image|Update an Image]]).<br />
<br />
== Workflow == <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
In this example [https://www.kde.org/applications/graphics/spectacle/ Spectacle] is used, but other screen capture applications work as well.<br />

<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
# Start [https://www.kde.org/applications/graphics/spectacle/ Spectacle]<br />
# Choose a Capture mode (1) from the following:<br />
#;Current Screen (only visible on a multi-screen environment)<br />
#: Everything on the single screen is captured, usually used for ''desktop screenshots''. <br />
#;Full Screen<br />
#:This works differently, depending on whether you have a single screen or a multi-screen environment. For single screen users it captures everything currently on the screen. Multi-screen users will see it capture all screens into a single window.<br />
#;Window Under Cursor<br />
#: The content of an applications or dialog window is captured. usually used for ''application screenshots''. Preferably, check the '''Include window decorations''' option (2).<br />
#;Region<br />
#: Only a region to be defined later is captured. <br />
# Click on <menuchoice>New Snapshot</menuchoice> (3).<br />
#;Full Screen<br />
#;Current Screen<br />
#;Window Under Cursor<br />
#: Click anywhere on the screen to take the snapshot.<br />
#;Region: <br />
#:# Use the mouse to draw a rectangle around the region to be captured (for example around a window). <br />
#:# Strike the <keycap>Enter</keycap> key or double click in the region to take the snapshot.<br />
# Click on <menuchoice>Save As...</menuchoice> (4).<br />
# Browse to the location you want to save the image, give it a name ('''''name.png''''') and click on <menuchoice>Save</menuchoice><br />
<br />
== Hints and Tips == <!--T:9--><br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* The <menuchoice>Snapshot delay</menuchoice> option (5) makes [https://www.kde.org/applications/graphics/spectacle/ Spectacle] wait a given amount of time (given in seconds) before taking the snapshot. This can be useful in many situations, for example when taking screenshots of drop-down menus<br />
* It's often useful to create a separate user for taking screenshots to ensure a standard look with the default settings.<br />
* Use <menuchoice>Type: Color</menuchoice> in the wallpaper settings to get a white background.<br />

== Introduction == <!--T:1--><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The purpose of publishing software screenshots is to introduce prospective users to the look and feel and to give them an idea of what to expect from the product once they have got it running. Therefore, screen shots should document common usage of the environment and applications, available to users with a standard hardware configuration.<br />
<br />
== Guidelines == <!--T:3--><br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
* Set the language to English, unless it's a localized screenshot.<br />
* Save as a PNG image.<br />
* Preferably, use the default settings (icons, color scheme, style, window decoration, application settings etc.).<br />
* Preferably, use <menuchoice>compositing</menuchoice> (Desktop Effects module in [[Special:myLanguage/System Settings|System Settings]]), but don't worry if your graphics card does not support compositing.<br />
* Preferably, use font "Liberation Sans" at 9pt.<br />
* If the screenshot shows parts of the desktop, preferably use the default background of plasma. Include a margin (around 20 pixels) if possible, to ensure that window shadows don't look cropped.<br />
* If you are preparing a localized screenshot, use the same name as the original English one, with the language-code (the same as you will see on the page address) appended.<br />
* If the screenshot is to update an existing one, use exactly the same name so that the update happens automatically (see [[Special:myLanguage/Update_an_Image|Update an Image]]).<br />

<!--T:8--><br />
# Start [https://www.kde.org/applications/graphics/spectacle/|Spectacle]<br />
# Choose a Capture mode (1) from the following:<br />
#;Current Screen (only visible on a multi-screen environment)<br />
#: Everything on the single screen is captured, usually used for ''desktop screenshots''. <br />
#;Full Screen<br />
#:This works differently, depending on whether you have a single screen or a multi-screen environment. For single screen users it captures everything currently on the screen. Multi-screen users will see it capture all screens into a single window.<br />
#;Window Under Cursor<br />
#: The content of an applications or dialog window is captured. usually used for ''application screenshots''. Preferably, check the '''Include window decorations''' option (2).<br />
#;Region<br />
#: Only a region to be defined later is captured. <br />
# Click on <menuchoice>New Snapshot</menuchoice> (3).<br />
#;Full Screen<br />
#;Current Screen<br />
#;Window Under Cursor<br />
#: Click anywhere on the screen to take the snapshot.<br />
#;Region: <br />
#:# Use the mouse to draw a rectangle around the region to be captured (for example around a window). <br />
#:# Strike the <keycap>Enter</keycap> key or double click in the region to take the snapshot.<br />
# Click on <menuchoice>Save As...</menuchoice> (4).<br />
# Browse to the location you want to save the image, give it a name ('''''name.png''''') and click on <menuchoice>Save</menuchoice><br />
<br />
== Hints and Tips == <!--T:9--><br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* The <menuchoice>Snapshot delay</menuchoice> option (5) makes [[Special:myLanguage/Spectacle|Spectacle]] wait a given amount of time (given in seconds) before taking the snapshot. This can be useful in many situations, for example when taking screenshots of drop-down menus<br />
* It's often useful to create a separate user for taking screenshots to ensure a standard look with the default settings.<br />
* Use <menuchoice>Type: Color</menuchoice> in the wallpaper settings to get a white background.<br />

<hr />
<div><languages/><br />
<translate><br />
<br />
== Replay Gain ==<br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReplayGain Replay gain] will automatically adjust the volume of the currently played song, relative to other songs, as determined by the person who encoded the audio file. To enable replay gain, see [[Amarok/Manual/References/MenuAndCommandReference/Settings#Settings_Menu]]<br />
<br />
To handle this, Amarok relies on metadata embedded in the audio file:<br />
# If no replay gain information is embedded, Amarok will not adjust the volume<br />
# If replay gain information is found, it will be written into Amarok's database<br />
During playback, Amarok will only look into it's own database for this information. Updates to the metadata of the file will not always get written into the database during a collection update (e.g. replay gain is deleted from file).<br />
<br />
This can lead to unexpected behavior: Songs from the same artist play at different volume levels etc.<br />
<br />
=== Is replay gain being used? ===<br />
To figure out if the volume problem is caused by replay gain or bad encoding:<br />
* Disable replay gain processing (see above=<br />
* Start Amarok in debug mode and search for gain- related output:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>amarok -d --nofork | grep gain</nowiki>}}<br />
If replay gain is active for the played song, the output will be<br />
Using gain of -10.28 with relative peak of -1<br />
<br />
=== View replay gain information ===<br />
For .flac files, "metaflac" can be used to view embedded replay gain data:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>metaflac --list Millencolin\ -\ Balanced\ Boy.flac</nowiki>}}<br />
Among other things, this will show something like this:<br />
METADATA block #2<br />
type: 4 (VORBIS_COMMENT)<br />
is last: false<br />
length: 390<br />
vendor string: reference libFLAC 1.2.1 20070917<br />
comments: 14<br />
comment[9]: REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS=89.0 dB<br />
comment[10]: REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-1.55 dB<br />
comment[11]: REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.75894165<br />
comment[12]: REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN=-4.19 dB<br />
comment[13]: REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK=0.98712158<br />
<br />
To view this tracks information within the Amarok database:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>select id, title, albumgain, albumpeakgain, trackgain, trackpeakgain from tracks where title like "Balanced%";</nowiki>}}<br />
Will show:<br />
+-------+------------------+-----------+---------------+-----------+---------------+<br />
| id | title | albumgain | albumpeakgain | trackgain | trackpeakgain |<br />
+-------+------------------+-----------+---------------+-----------+---------------+<br />
| 10459 | Balanced Boy | 0.53 | -5.60297 | 0.44 | -5.60297 |<br />
<br />
Note the difference in loudness levels<br />
<br />
=== Delete replay gain information ===<br />
First, delete the metadata from the file:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>metaflac --remove-replay-gain Millencolin\ -\ Balanced\ Boy.flac</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
After that, update your Amarok collection. If it is still using replay gain, update the database entry:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>update tracks set albumgain=-1,albumpeakgain=-1,trackgain=-1,trackpeakgain=-1 where id=10459</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
Restart Amarok & the log output should now show the updated values being used.<br />

== Replay Gain ==<br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReplayGain Replay gain] will automatically adjust the volume of the currently played song, relative to other songs, as determined by the person who encoded the audio file. To enable replay gain, see [[Amarok/Manual/References/MenuAndCommandReference/Settings#Settings_Menu]]<br />
<br />
To handle this, Amarok relies on metadata embedded in the audio file:<br />
# If no replay gain information is embedded, Amarok will not adjust the volume<br />
# If replay gain information is found, it will be written into Amarok's database<br />
During playback, Amarok will only look into it's own database for this information. Updates to the metadata of the file will not always get written into the database during a collection update (e.g. replay gain is deleted from file).<br />
<br />
This can lead to unexpected behavior: Songs from the same artist play at different volume levels etc.<br />
<br />
=== Is replay gain beeing used? ===<br />
To figure out if the volume problem is caused by replay gain or bad encoding:<br />
* Disable replay gain processing (see above=<br />
* Start Amarok in debug mode and search for gain- related output:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>amarok -d --nofork | grep gain</nowiki>}}<br />
If replay gain is active for the played song, the output will be<br />
Using gain of -10.28 with relative peak of -1<br />
<br />
=== View replay gain information ===<br />
For .flac files, "metaflac" can be used to view embedded replay gain data:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>metaflac --list Millencolin\ -\ Balanced\ Boy.flac</nowiki>}}<br />
Among other things, this will show something like this:<br />
METADATA block #2<br />
type: 4 (VORBIS_COMMENT)<br />
is last: false<br />
length: 390<br />
vendor string: reference libFLAC 1.2.1 20070917<br />
comments: 14<br />
comment[9]: REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS=89.0 dB<br />
comment[10]: REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-1.55 dB<br />
comment[11]: REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.75894165<br />
comment[12]: REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN=-4.19 dB<br />
comment[13]: REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK=0.98712158<br />
<br />
To view this tracks information within the Amarok database:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>select id, title, albumgain, albumpeakgain, trackgain, trackpeakgain from tracks where title like "Balanced%";</nowiki>}}<br />
Will show:<br />
+-------+------------------+-----------+---------------+-----------+---------------+<br />
| id | title | albumgain | albumpeakgain | trackgain | trackpeakgain |<br />
+-------+------------------+-----------+---------------+-----------+---------------+<br />
| 10459 | Balanced Boy | 0.53 | -5.60297 | 0.44 | -5.60297 |<br />
<br />
Note the difference in loudness levels<br />
<br />
=== Delete replay gain information ===<br />
First, delete the metadata from the file:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>metaflac --remove-replay-gain Millencolin\ -\ Balanced\ Boy.flac</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
After that, update your Amarok collection. If it is still using replay gain, update the database entry:<br />
{{Input|<nowiki>update tracks set albumgain=-1,albumpeakgain=-1,trackgain=-1,trackpeakgain=-1 where id=10459</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
Restart Amarok & the log output should now show the updated values being used.<br />
<br />
Feel free to try & mess with the values manually to improve volume levels.<br />

==Why try Kubuntu? == <!--T:29--><br />
<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
There are many good reasons to install '''Kubuntu'''!<br />
Some of them include:<br />
*'''Kubuntu''' makes your PC friendly. <br />
*'''Kubuntu''' is an operating system built by a friendly worldwide team of expert developers. It contains all the applications you need: web browser, office suite, media apps, instant messaging, and many others. For a list of the included software, see the [[Special:myLanguage/Kubuntu/Software|Software]] page.<br />
*'''Kubuntu''' is a free, open-source alternative to Windows and Mac OS X.<br />
*Easily install beside, or instead of, Windows.<br />
<br />
==Preparing the installation media==<br />
<br />
===Windows 7/8===<br />
<br />
====USB/Flash Drives====<br />
<br />
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetBootin]. <br />
<br />
You can use UNetBootin to download the ISO(image file) for you or have download it though [http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download Get Kubuntu].<br />
<br />
If you choose the 'Diskimage' option you use the <menuchoice>...</menuchoice> button to select your downloaded ISO. Then click <menuchoice>OK</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
[[Image:unetbootin-win8.png|thumb|500px|center|UNetBootin Windows 8]]<br />
{{Warning| Pay special attention when selecting the right USB device under 'Drive'}}<br />
<br />
====DVD====<br />
<br />
The recommended tool to use is [http://www.imgburn.com/ ImgBurn]<br />
There is a excellent how-to on the ImgBurn forums by the admin [http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?/topic/61-how-to-write-an-image-file-to-a-disc-using-imgburn/ here]. <br />
<br />
===Existing Kubuntu Install===<br />
<br />
====USB/Flash Drives====<br />
<br />
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetBootin]. <br />
<br />
Using the command line we use the 'dd' command. The best example is... <br/><br />
<code> sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/path/to/usb </code><br />
<br />
[[Image:Dd-command.png|thumb|500px|center|dd command example]]<br />
<br />
====DVD====<br />
For making a DVD we recommend the awesome KDE tool [https://userbase.kde.org/K3b K3b]<br />
<br />
[[Image:K3b.png|thumb|500px|center|K3b]]<br />
<br />
Look for <menuchoice>More actions...</menuchoice>, click it then pick <menuchoice>Burn Image...</menuchoice> from the list of actions.<br />
<br />
[[Image:K3b-1.png|thumb|500px|center|K3b Image Selection]]<br />
<br />
Then you select the image (iso) that you want to burn to the DVD from your computer. <br />
<br />
{{Note| Most torrent and browsers store your downloads in the 'Download' directory.}}<br />
<br />
{{Note| Most of the default setting for K3b for DVD burning are fine.}}<br />
<br />
===Other Linux Distributions===<br />

<br />
[[Image:Brasero.png|thumb|500px|center|Brasero]]<br />
<br />
====KDE based====<br />
<br />
If your using a Linux Distribution that uses KDE you can follow the [https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#Existing_Kubuntu_Installation Kubuntu instructions] as K3b is provided in every KDE based Distro (Distribution).<br />
<br />
===Install Process=== <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
First, you will need to download '''Kubuntu'''. See [http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download Get Kubuntu]<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
[[Image:kubuntuinstallwelcome.png|thumb|500px|center|Install Welcome Screen]]<br />
<br clear=all><br />
When the installer starts you will see these options:<br />
* Try out '''Kubuntu''' without changing anything on your computer<br />
* Install '''Kubuntu''' on your computer. <br />
<br />
====Prepare==== <!--T:5--><br />
For the best result, ensure that:<br />
* Your computer has enough room for '''Kubuntu''' and your data - your songs, pictures, videos, and documents.<br />
* Your computer is connected to the Internet so that you can download updates and third-party software as '''Kubuntu''' is installing.<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
[[Image:15.04_prepare.png|thumb|600px|center|Install Prepare Screen]]<br />
<br clear=all><br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
<menuchoice>Include this third-party software</menuchoice> includes software that either does not follow the Open Source model or the [http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/our-philosophy Ubuntu Philosophy], but is safe for use on your system.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
<menuchoice>Download updates while installing</menuchoice> will ensure that you have the latest bug and security fixes included and applied once the installation is complete.<br />
<br />
====Disk Setup==== <!--T:9--><br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
[[Image:15.04_disksetup.png|thumb|600px|center|Disk Setup Screen]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
This is where you choose how to organize your hard drive. This step is the most complicated and consequential in the entire install process, so take your time. <br />
{{Tip|You will be able to change your mind and go back until the <menuchoice>Install Now</menuchoice> button is clicked.}}<br />
The following sections are some possible installation scenarios you might choose. Each of these choices points to a page or series of pages with more details. For each option (except Manual), the installer asks which hard drive to use. After choosing, you will see a before and after layout on that hard drive.<br />
<br />
=====Resize===== <!--T:12--><br />
This will resize the partitions for you and install '''Kubuntu''' on the free space. With this option you can create what is called a dual-boot and choose which OS to boot into at startup.<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
[[Image:15.04_disksetup2.png|thumb|600px|center|Dual Boot]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
{{Note|This is available only if at least 25GB can be freed.}}<br />
<br />
=====Use entire disk===== <!--T:15--><br />
In this scenario the installer will create two(2) partitions on your hard drive. One(1) for the root, home, and everything else and one(1) for the swap.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
{{Warning|This option will completely erase your hard drive. You will lose any operating systems (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.) and all your data that is stored on that drive.}}<br />
<br />
=====Use entire disk and set up LVM===== <!--T:17--><br />

<br />
=====Use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM===== <!--T:18--><br />
More about [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystems encrypted file systems]<br />
<br />
=====Manual===== <!--T:19--><br />
When using <menuchoice>Manual</menuchoice> to set up your system as you would like it, keep these thoughts in mind:<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
* The root ( '''/''' ) directory needs at least 25 GBs of space.<br />
* The home ( '''/home''' ) directory needs as much space as you will need for your files, music, pictures and documents. So it is best to use the remaining space for the home partition, unless you have going to dual boot.<br />
* Swap space of at least half of the available RAM is recommended. For instance, with 8 GBs, make the swap with at least 4 GBs.<br />
<br />

<br />
==== Timezone ==== <!--T:22--><br />
During this step you get to pick the Region where you live and then the Timezone of the location in that Region. An example would be that I live in New York, so my Region is North America and my Timezone is New York.<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
[[Image:15.04_timezone.png|thumb|600px|center|Timezone Screen]]<br />
<br />
==== Keyboard ==== <!--T:24--><br />
This is the step that will set up your keyboard's language and, if the language has it, a different version of the language. For example, there is a Cherokee American English setting as well as different setups with special keys used in certain countries; in '''Kubuntu''' we try to make the system easy for everyone!<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
[[Image:15.04_keyboard.png|thumb|600px|center|Keyboard Screen]]<br />
<br />
==== User Info ==== <!--T:26--><br />
At this step of the installation you will be putting in user information like your name, username, and password. The password will be your key to logging into your new installation as well as installing new software, updating your system, and more, so keep it written down somewhere! <br />

<br />
If your using a Linux Distribution that uses KDE you can follow the [https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#Existing_Kubuntu_Installation Kubuntu instructions] as K3b is provided in every KDE based Distro (Distribution).<br />
<br />
===Install Process=== <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
First, you will need to download '''Kubuntu'''. See [http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download Get Kubuntu]<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
[[Image:kubuntuinstallwelcome.png|thumb|500px|center|Install Welcome Screen]]<br />
<br clear=all><br />
When the installer starts you will see these options:<br />
* Try out '''Kubuntu''' without changing anything on your computer<br />
* Install '''Kubuntu''' on your computer. <br />
<br />
====Prepare==== <!--T:5--><br />
For the best result, ensure that:<br />
* Your computer has enough room for '''Kubuntu''' and your data - your songs, pictures, videos, and documents.<br />
* Your computer is connected to the Internet so that you can download updates and third-party software as '''Kubuntu''' is installing.<br />
<br />

<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
<menuchoice>Download updates while installing</menuchoice> will ensure that you have the latest bug and security fixes included and applied once the installation is complete.<br />
<br />
====Disk Setup==== <!--T:9--><br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
[[Image:15.04_disksetup.png|thumb|600px|center|Disk Setup Screen]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
This is where you choose how to organize your hard drive. This step is the most complicated and consequential in the entire install process, so take your time. <br />
{{Tip|You will be able to change your mind and go back until the <menuchoice>Install Now</menuchoice> button is clicked.}}<br />
The following sections are some possible installation scenarios you might choose. Each of these choices points to a page or series of pages with more details. For each option (except Manual), the installer asks which hard drive to use. After choosing, you will see a before and after layout on that hard drive.<br />
<br />
===== Resize ===== <!--T:12--><br />
This will resize the partitions for you and install '''Kubuntu''' on the free space. With this option you can create what is called a dual-boot and choose which OS to boot into at startup.<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
[[Image:15.04_disksetup2.png|thumb|600px|center|Dual Boot]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
{{Note|''This is available only if at least 25GB can be freed.''}}<br />
<br />
===== Use entire disk ===== <!--T:15--><br />
In this scenario the installer will create two(2) partitions on your hard drive. One(1) for the root, home, and everything else and one(1) for the swap.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
{{Warning|This option will completely erase your hard drive. You will lose any operating systems (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.) and all your data that is stored on that drive.}}<br />
<br />

<br />
===== Manual ===== <!--T:19--><br />
When using <menuchoice>Manual</menuchoice> to set up your system as you would like it, keep these thoughts in mind:<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
* The root ( '''/''' ) directory needs at least 25 GBs of space.<br />
* The home ( '''/home''' ) directory needs as much space as you will need for your files, music, pictures and documents. So it is best to use the remaining space for the home partition, unless you have going to dual boot.<br />
* Swap space of at least half of the available RAM is recommended. For instance, with 8 GBs, make the swap with at least 4 GBs.<br />
<br />

<br />
==== Timezone ==== <!--T:22--><br />
During this step you get to pick the Region where you live and then the Timezone of the location in that Region. An example would be that I live in New York, so my Region is North America and my Timezone is New York.<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
[[Image:15.04_timezone.png|thumb|600px|center|Timezone Screen]]<br />
<br />
==== Keyboard ==== <!--T:24--><br />
This is the step that will set up your keyboard's language and, if the language has it, a different version of the language. For example, there is a Cherokee American English setting as well as different setups with special keys used in certain countries; in '''Kubuntu''' we try to make the system easy for everyone!<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
[[Image:15.04_keyboard.png|thumb|600px|center|Keyboard Screen]]<br />
<br />
==== User Info ==== <!--T:26--><br />
At this step of the installation you will be putting in user information like your name, username, and password. The password will be your key to logging into your new installation as well as installing new software, updating your system, and more, so keep it written down somewhere! <br />

==Why try Kubuntu? == <!--T:29--><br />
<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
There are many good reasons to install '''Kubuntu'''!<br />
Some of them include:<br />
*'''Kubuntu''' makes your PC friendly. <br />
*'''Kubuntu''' is an operating system built by a friendly worldwide team of expert developers. It contains all the applications you need: web browser, office suite, media apps, instant messaging, and many others.

*'''Kubuntu''' is a free, open-source alternative to Windows and Mac OS X.<br />
*Easily install beside, or instead of, Windows.<br />
<br />
==Preparing the installation media==<br />
<br />
===Windows 7/8===<br />
<br />
====USB/Flash Drives====<br />
<br />
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetBootin]. <br />
<br />
You can use UNetBootin to download the ISO(image file) for you or have download it though [http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download Get Kubuntu].<br />
<br />
If you choose the 'Diskimage' option you use the <menuchoice>...</menuchoice> button to select your downloaded ISO. Then click <menuchoice>OK</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
[[Image:unetbootin-win8.png|thumb|500px|center|UNetBootin Windows 8]]<br />
{{Warning|" Pay special attention when selecting the right USB device under 'Drive' "}}<br />
<br />
====DVD====<br />
<br />
The recommended tool to use is [http://www.imgburn.com/ ImgBurn]<br />
There is a excellent how-to on the ImgBurn forums by the admin [http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?/topic/61-how-to-write-an-image-file-to-a-disc-using-imgburn/ here]. <br />

<br />
====USB/Flash Drives====<br />
<br />
For a GUI (Graphic User Interface) we use [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetBootin]. <br />
<br />
Using the command line we use the 'dd' command. The best example is... <br/><br />
<code> sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/path/to/usb </code><br />
<br />
[[Image:Dd-command.png|thumb|500px|center|dd command example]]<br />

<br />
[[Image:K3b-1.png|thumb|500px|center|K3b Image Selection]]<br />
<br />
Then you select the image (iso) that you want to burn to the DVD from your computer. <br />
<br />
{{Note|" Most torrent and browsers store your downloads in the 'Download' directory. "}}<br />
<br />
{{Note|" Most of the default setting for K3b for DVD burning are fine."}}<br />

<br />
==== Sh ==== <!--T:76--><br />
<br />
<!--T:77--><br />
The Bourne shell (sh) was one of the major shells used in early versions of the Unix operating system and became a de facto standard. Every Unix-like system has at least one shell compatible with the Bourne shell. The Bourne shell program name is sh and it is typically located in the Unix file system hierarchy at /bin/sh. The Bourne shell is usually used as fallback for Bash or another shell. The features of the Bourne shell are quite limited if compared to something like Bash.<br />
<br />
==== Bash ==== <!--T:78--><br />
<br />
<!--T:79--><br />
Bash stands for "Bourne again shell", a bit of a play on words. For many Linux distribution Bash is the default shell. The Bash command syntax is a superset of the Bourne shell command syntax. Among the features of Bash are: command line editing, command history, the directory stack, the $RANDOM and $PPID variables, and POSIX command substitution syntax $(..)/ When used as an interactive command shell and pressing the tab key, Bash automatically uses command line completion to match partly typed program names, filenames and variable names. Bash syntax simplifies I/O redirection in ways that are not possible in the traditional Bourne shell. For example Bash can redirect standard output (stdout) and standard error (stderr) at the same time using the &> operator.<br />
<br />
[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal Using the Terminal]<br />
<br />
==== Zsh ==== <!--T:80--><br />
<br />
<!--T:81--><br />
The Z shell (zsh) is a Unix shell that can be used as an interactive login shell and as a powerful command interpreter for shell scripting. Zsh can be thought of as an extended Bourne shell with a large number of improvements, including some features of bash, ksh, and tcsh. Among its features are: programmable command-line completion, sharing of command history among all running shells, spelling correction, theme-able prompts and it is fully customizable.<br />
Attesting to the sheer size of this shell is the famous first sentence of the shell's manual page, which reads "Because zsh contains many features, the zsh manual has been split into a number of sections", and then goes on to list seventeen items.<br />
<br />
<!--T:82--><br />

== Getting Started with IRC == <!--T:16--><br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
Sometimes people will tell you that they can help you more if you visit an IRC channel. If you've never done it before, that sounds scary, but it's easy to set up. There are even ways that will work equally well in Linux and in Windows. [[Special:myLanguage/How_to_chat_with_other_KDE_users|How to chat with other KDE users]] tells you in detail one easy way to get started. Give it a try! More developers are on IRC than read mailing lists or any other help channel.<br />
<br />
==Registered KDE-Related IRC-Channels== <!--T:1--><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
You can find the following KDE-related IRC channels in the [http://www.freenode.net/ freenode] IRC Network (alias irc.kde.org):<br />

=== The Playlist pane === <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
'''Amarok''' offers excellent playlist management for all of your songs and other audio files. Here you see a short playlist, sorted by album.<br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistPane.png|250px|thumb|center|'''Amarok''' Playlist pane]]<br />
<br />
==== Basic Playlist Manipulation ==== <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok2dot8PUD.png|thumb|250px|thumb|right|Playlist Pop Up Dropper menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
Adding music to your playlist is a simple drag-and-drop, right-click or double-click operation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
Two playlist-related options will be shown in the ''Context'' pane in the center (the ''Pop-Up Dropper'', or ''PUD'') when performing a drag-and-drop operation to add music to your current playlist. You can either use <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>, which will append the songs you have selected, or <menuchoice>Replace Playlist</menuchoice>, which will replace all the contents of the playlist with your selection.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
Alternatively, dragging-and-dropping your selection into a position in the ''Playlist'' pane also works.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
Right-clicking on a track, album, or selected group will bring up a context menu from which you can <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>, or <menuchoice>Replace Playlist</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
Double-clicking a selection or pressing <keycap>Enter</keycap> while a track is selected in the ''Media Sources'' pane will perform the same as <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:78--><br />
Middle-clicking an item will append it to the playlist and begin playing from the start of the playlist.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
If you tell the file browser to open a supported multimedia file, '''Amarok''' will append the selected file to the current playlist. Some multimedia files contain playlists themselves or may have playlist files associated by name (e.g. ''wav'' with ''cue''). If '''Amarok''' detects such an association, it may add several items to the playlist.<br />
<br />
</translate><br style="clear: both;"/><translate><br />
<br />
==== Context menu ==== <!--T:13--><br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
Right-clicking on any song or album in the playlist will bring up the ''Playlist'' context menu.<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.6TrackContextMenu.png|thumb|center|250px]]<br />
<br />
===== Queue/Dequeue Track ===== <!--T:16--><br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
Queuing a track will temporarily modify the play order without modifying the actual playlist order by setting the user-selected track as the next track.<br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
As many tracks as required can be queued, and the order of queuing is indicated by a green circle with the determined order. Choose the tracks by <keycap>Shift + Click</keycap> for a block of tracks, or <keycap>Ctrl + Click</keycap> for individual tracks. The order in which the tracks are selected is the determined order.<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
Tracks can be dequeued by opening the context menu and selecting the <menuchoice>Dequeue Track</menuchoice> option. <br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
More about the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/Playlist/QueueManager|Queue Manager]].<br />
<br />
===== Stop Playing After This Track ===== <!--T:21--><br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
Choosing this option allows a track to finish, after which '''Amarok''' will stop playing . It will be indicated by the stop icon in place of the track number. Selecting this option on a track already marked will unmark it. Only one track in the playlist may be so marked.<br />
<br />
===== Remove From Playlist ===== <!--T:23--><br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
This removes the selected track from the current playlist.<br />
<br />
===== Add Position Marker ===== <!--T:25--><br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
Adding a position marker is only available for the currently playing track. This will add a bookmark in the seek bar at the top of the '''Amarok''' interface.<br />
<br />
===== Show in Media Sources ===== <!--T:27--><br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
This displays the track selected in the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/MediaSources|Media Sources]] pane, which is on the left by default.<br />
<br />
===== Album ===== <!--T:29--><br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.6PlaylistAlbumContextMenu.png|thumb|center|250px|Playlist album menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
These are per-album options which will affect the entire album the track belongs to, rather than the track itself. The options are largely the same as the album menu in the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/MediaSources|Media Sources]] pane.<br />
<br />
===== Edit Track Details ===== <!--T:32--><br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
This option brings up the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/Organization/TagEditor|Edit Track Details]] dialog for the selected tracks.<br />
<br />
==== Searching the Playlist ==== <!--T:34--><br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistFilterOptions.png|right|thumb|250px|Playlist searching options]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
'''Amarok''' offers powerful searching capabilities for playlists. Simply enter your query for a song into the text box labelled <menuchoice>Search playlist</menuchoice> and it will match your keywords up against the match criteria you specify in the options menu &mdash; for instance, you can choose to search only by <menuchoice>Albums</menuchoice> and not <menuchoice>Artists</menuchoice>, or choose to match both of them.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.4searchPlaylist.png|center|250px|Playlist search bar]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
Pressing the {{Icon|go-up}} icon moves the selection to the previous search result, and {{Icon|go-down}} moves to the next result, all without losing focus on the search input box.<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
The {{Icon|edit-clear-locationbar-rtl}} icon in the search field will clear your query.<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
Enabling <menuchoice>Show only matches</menuchoice> from the menu will cause your playlist to display only the tracks matching the query.<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
More about [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/Playlist/PlaylistFiltering|Playlist filtering here]].<br />
<br />
</translate><br style="clear: both;"/><translate><br />
<br />
==== Sorting Levels and Bookmarking ==== <!--T:42--><br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
[[File:Sorting.png|thumb|center|410px|Playlist sorting and bookmarking toolbar]]<br />
<br />
===== Sorting Levels ===== <!--T:44--><br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistSortingLevels.png|thumb|left|250px|Menu for adding a sorting level]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
'''Amarok's''' robust sorting abilities offer the ability to sort not only by one field of a track, but by many combined in a series of levels.<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
There are many different modes by which a sorting level can act. For instance, songs can be sorted by their <menuchoice>Genre</menuchoice> and then their <menuchoice>Album</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:48--><br />
A sorting level can be added by clicking the right-pointing triangle, which will bring up the menu for adding another sorting level.<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
Clicking the small triangle on the right of the sorting level's name will cause items in the playlist to switch between ascending and descending order, which is indicated by the direction in which the triangle is pointing &mdash; up or down, respectively.<br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
To remove a sorting level, click the name of the sorting level that precedes the one you wish to remove. Multiple sorting levels can be removed &mdash; provided that they are all lower in the hierarchy &mdash; by clicking on the ancestor of all of them. If you wish to clear all sorting levels, you can click the playlist icon to the left of the first right-pointing arrow.<br />
<br />
</translate><br style="clear: both;"/><translate><br />
<br />
===== Bookmarking ===== <!--T:51--><br />
<br />
<!--T:52--><br />
[[File:Bookmarking_menu.png|thumb|center|350px|Bookmarking menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:53--><br />
The bookmarking menu provides options to save your [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok/ChangingLayout#Changing_the_Playlist_layout|current playlist layout]]. Clicking <menuchoice>Bookmark Playlist Setup</menuchoice> will add your playlist layout to the layout bookmarks, which can be viewed in [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/References/MenuAndCommandReference/Tools#Bookmark_Manager|Bookmark Manager]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:54--><br />
<menuchoice>Copy Current View Bookmark to Clipboard</menuchoice> copies an '''Amarok''' playlist layout URL to the clipboard, which can be used for backing up your playlist layout.<br />
<br />
==== Playlist Functions ==== <!--T:55--><br />
<br />
<!--T:56--><br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistBottomBar.png|thumb|center|300px|Playlist bottom bar]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:57--><br />
The bottom bar of the ''Playlist'' pane provides various additional options for manipulation of your playlist.<br />
<br />

Left-click {{Icon|document-save}} to bring up the <menuchoice>Save Playlist</menuchoice> menu, to save your playlist file onto the hard drive instead of the database.<br />

===== Track Progression ===== <!--T:62--><br />
<br />
<!--T:63--><br />
[[File:Track_Progression.png|thumb|center|350px|Track progression menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:64--><br />
The <menuchoice>Track Progression</menuchoice> menu enables you to modify the order in which '''Amarok''' progresses through the tracks in your playlist.<br />
<br />
<br />
<!--T:65--><br />
The top half of the menu specifies repeat options &mdash; whether songs should be repeated by track, by album or by playlist; whereas the bottom half specifies the order in which the tracks play in &mdash; in random order or by favor. Only one type of progression may be selected, e.g. you cannot select both random track and repeat playlist.<br />
<br />
====== Favor ====== <!--T:66--><br />
<br />
<!--T:67--><br />
[[File:Favor.png|thumb|center|350px|Playlist favor menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:68--><br />
Favor is an innovative method to determine the next track to be played when using the random selection mode. The next track to be played can be determined depending on their score (a measure of how often they are played), their user-given rating, or if they have not been recently played.<br />

=== The Playlist pane === <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
'''Amarok''' offers excellent playlist management for all of your songs and other audio files. Here you see a short playlist, sorted by album.<br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistPane.png|250px|thumb|center|'''Amarok''' Playlist pane]]<br />
<br />
==== Basic Playlist Manipulation ==== <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok2dot8PUD.png|thumb|250px|thumb|right|Playlist context view menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
Adding music to your playlist is a simple drag-and-drop, right-click or double-click operation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
Two playlist-related options will be shown in the ''Context'' pane in the center (the ''Pop-Up Dropper'', or ''PUD'') when performing a drag-and-drop operation to add music to your current playlist. You can either use <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>, which will append the songs you have selected, or <menuchoice>Replace Playlist</menuchoice>, which will replace all the contents of the playlist with your selection.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
Alternatively, dragging-and-dropping your selection into a position in the ''Playlist'' pane also works.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
Right-clicking on a track, album, or selected group will bring up a context menu from which you can <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>, or <menuchoice>Replace Playlist</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
Double-clicking a selection or pressing <keycap>Enter</keycap> while a track is selected in the ''Media Sources'' pane will perform the same as <menuchoice>Add to Playlist</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:78--><br />
Middle-clicking an item will append it to the playlist and begin playing from the start of the playlist.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
If you tell the file browser to open a supported multimedia file, '''Amarok''' will append the selected file to the current playlist. Some multimedia files contain playlists themselves or may have playlist files associated by name (e.g. ''wav'' with ''cue''). If '''Amarok''' detects such an association, it may add several items to the playlist.<br />
<br />
</translate><br style="clear: both;"/><translate><br />
<br />
==== Context menu ==== <!--T:13--><br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
Right-clicking on any song or album in the playlist will bring up the ''Playlist'' context menu.<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.6TrackContextMenu.png|thumb|center|250px]]<br />
<br />
===== Queue/Dequeue Track ===== <!--T:16--><br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
Queuing a track will temporarily modify the play order without modifying the actual playlist order by setting the user-selected track as the next track.<br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
As many tracks as required can be queued, and the order of queuing is indicated by a green circle with the determined order. Choose the tracks by <keycap>Shift + Click</keycap> for a block of tracks, or <keycap>Ctrl + Click</keycap> for individual tracks. The order in which the tracks are selected is the determined order.<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
Tracks can be dequeued by opening the context menu and selecting the <menuchoice>Dequeue Track</menuchoice> option. <br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
More about the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/Playlist/QueueManager|Queue Manager]].<br />
<br />
===== Stop Playing After This Track ===== <!--T:21--><br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
Choosing this option allows a track to finish, after which '''Amarok''' will stop playing . It will be indicated by the stop icon in place of the track number. Selecting this option on a track already marked will unmark it. Only one track in the playlist may be so marked.<br />
<br />
===== Remove From Playlist ===== <!--T:23--><br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
This removes the selected track from the current playlist.<br />
<br />
===== Add Position Marker ===== <!--T:25--><br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
Adding a position marker is only available for the currently playing track. This will add a bookmark in the seek bar at the top of the '''Amarok''' interface.<br />
<br />
===== Show in Media Sources ===== <!--T:27--><br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
This displays the track selected in the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/MediaSources|Media Sources]] pane, which is on the left by default.<br />
<br />
===== Album ===== <!--T:29--><br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.6PlaylistAlbumContextMenu.png|thumb|center|250px|Playlist album menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
These are per-album options which will affect the entire album the track belongs to, rather than the track itself. The options are largely the same as the album menu in the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/MediaSources|Media Sources]] pane.<br />
<br />
===== Edit Track Details ===== <!--T:32--><br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
This option brings up the [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/Organization/TagEditor|Edit Track Details]] dialog for the selected tracks.<br />
<br />
==== Searching the Playlist ==== <!--T:34--><br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistFilterOptions.png|right|thumb|250px|Playlist searching options]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
'''Amarok''' offers powerful searching capabilities for playlists. Simply enter your query for a song into the text box labelled <menuchoice>Search playlist</menuchoice> and it will match your keywords up against the match criteria you specify in the options menu &mdash; for instance, you can choose to search only by <menuchoice>Albums</menuchoice> and not <menuchoice>Artists</menuchoice>, or choose to match both of them.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.4searchPlaylist.png|center|250px|Playlist search bar]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
Pressing the {{Icon|go-up}} icon moves the selection to the previous search result, and {{Icon|go-down}} moves to the next result, all without losing focus on the search input box.<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
The {{Icon|edit-clear-locationbar-rtl}} icon in the search field will clear your query.<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
Enabling <menuchoice>Show only matches</menuchoice> from the menu will cause your playlist to display only the tracks matching the query.<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />

<br />
==== Sorting Levels and Bookmarking ==== <!--T:42--><br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
[[File:Sorting.png|thumb|center|410px|Playlist sorting and bookmarking toolbar]]<br />
<br />
===== Sorting Levels ===== <!--T:44--><br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistSortingLevels.png|thumb|left|250px|Menu for adding a sorting level]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
'''Amarok's''' robust sorting abilities offer the ability to sort not only by one field of a track, but by many combined in a series of levels.<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
There are many different modes by which a sorting level can act. For instance, songs can be sorted by their <menuchoice>Genre</menuchoice> and then their <menuchoice>Album</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:48--><br />
A sorting level can be added by clicking the right-pointing triangle, which will bring up the menu for adding another sorting level.<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
Clicking the small triangle on the right of the sorting level's name will cause items in the playlist to switch between ascending and descending order, which is indicated by the direction in which the triangle is pointing &mdash; up or down, respectively.<br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
To remove a sorting level, click the name of the sorting level that precedes the one you wish to remove. Multiple sorting levels can be removed &mdash; provided that they are all lower in the hierarchy &mdash; by clicking on the ancestor of all of them. If you wish to clear all sorting levels, you can click the playlist icon to the left of the first right-pointing arrow.<br />
<br />
</translate><br style="clear: both;"/><translate><br />
<br />
===== Bookmarking ===== <!--T:51--><br />
<br />
<!--T:52--><br />
[[File:Bookmarking_menu.png|thumb|center|350px|Bookmarking menu]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:53--><br />
The bookmarking menu provides options to save your [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok/ChangingLayout#Changing_the_Playlist_layout|current playlist layout]]. Clicking <menuchoice>Bookmark Playlist Setup</menuchoice> will add your playlist layout to the layout bookmarks, which can be viewed in [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok/Manual/References/MenuAndCommandReference/Tools#Bookmark_Manager|Bookmark Manager]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:54--><br />
<menuchoice>Copy Current View Bookmark to Clipboard</menuchoice> copies an '''Amarok''' playlist layout URL to the clipboard, which can be used for backing up your playlist layout.<br />
<br />
==== Playlist Functions ==== <!--T:55--><br />
<br />
<!--T:56--><br />
[[File:Amarok_2.8_PlaylistBottomBar.png|thumb|center|300px|Playlist bottom bar]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:57--><br />
The bottom bar of the ''Playlist'' pane provides various additional options for manipulation of your playlist.<br />
<br />

=== The Amarok window === <!--T:1--><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The '''Amarok''' window is designed to let you rediscover your music. So, it gives you as much information about your music as possible. While many users will enjoy the default layout, it is fully customizable.<br />
<br />
==== Default layout of the Amarok window ==== <!--T:3--><br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
Upon installation, '''Amarok''' will look like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:AmarokNew2.4.png|300px|thumb|center|Amarok 2.8, newly installed]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
The '''Amarok''' window has four main parts: <br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
# under the top-level menus is the ''Toolbar'' which lies above three panes:<br />
# your '''Media Sources''' (music collection and other media) in the left pane,<br />
# the '''Context''' pane in the center, and<br />
# the '''Playlist''' in the right-hand pane.<br />
<br />
==== Using the Amarok window to manage and play your music ==== <!--T:10--><br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
Playing music using '''Amarok''' usually takes two steps:<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
# Create a playlist by selecting some of the tracks in your collection, which you will find listed in the '''Media Sources''' pane, and send your music to the '''Playlist''' pane.<br />
# Play the music in your playlist, using the '''Playlist''' pane and/or the Toolbar.<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />

=== Getting started === <!--T:1--><br />
<br />
==== Starting Amarok ==== <!--T:2--><br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
If you already know your way around your operating system, you probably also know how to start '''Amarok''', and you can [[#First Time|continue]]. Else, continue reading.<br />
<br />
===== From Plasma ===== <!--T:4--><br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
If you are running the [[Special:mylanguage/Plasma|Plasma Workspace]], you can start '''Amarok''' by either:<br />
* pressing on [[Special:mylanguage/Kickoff|Kickoff]] and then <menuchoice>Multimedia -> Amarok</menuchoice>.<br />
* invoking [[Special:mylanguage/KRunner|KRunner]] (<keycap>Alt + F2</keycap> by default), entering <code>amarok</code> and then pressing <keycap>Enter</keycap>.<br />
<br />
===== From the file manager ===== <!--T:30--><br />
Open a multimedia file that '''Amarok''' is known to play.<br />
<br />
==== First Time ==== <!--T:8--><br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
The first time you use '''Amarok''', a dialog box will come up asking you to specify your locale:<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
[[Image:Amarok_Locale_Selection.png|300px|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
Next, a First Start dialog box will come up asking you to specify where your music is located. If you have a music directory already [[Special:mylanguage/System Settings/Account Details#Paths|configured in your system]], '''Amarok''' should detect it and ask you to use it:<br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
[[Image:FirstRunCollection2.png|300px|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
If you select <menuchoice>No</menuchoice> in this dialog, you will be presented with another one which allows you to select your music folder:<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
[[File:Amarok2.4.1ConfigureDialogCollection.png|500px|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
See [[Special:mylanguage/Amarok/QuickStartGuide/TheMusicCollection#Setting_up_a_collection|Setting Up a Collection]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
Once you have selected the folder where your music is, '''Amarok''' will scan the folder and sub-folders, creating the collection. This can take some time, depending on the number of tracks and the speed of the location.<br />
<br />
==== Closing Amarok ==== <!--T:14--><br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
If you want to close '''Amarok''':<br />
* Type <keycap>Ctrl + Q</keycap> when you are in the '''Amarok''' window, or<br />
* Select the <menuchoice>Quit</menuchoice> option in the <menuchoice>Amarok</menuchoice> menu, or<br />
* Right-click on the blue wolf icon in the '''System Tray''' at the bottom of your screen. You will be presented with the following:<br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
[[Image:Amarok_2.8_Systray_window.png|200px|center]]<br />
<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
If you close the '''Amarok''' window by clicking <menuchoice>Close</menuchoice> on the window border, '''Amarok''' will continue to run in the background and only show the blue wolf icon in the '''System Tray''':<br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
[[Image:Amarok_systray_2.8_4.11.png|center|300px]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
If you log out of your session or shut down your computer without quitting '''Amarok''', some of your settings will not be saved.<br />

==A General Overview== <!--T:3--><br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
[http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/desktop.php A KDE 4.0 Visual Guide:] and a [http://media.ereslibre.es/2008/06/kde41.ogg 4.1 screencast] gives an excellent overview of '''KDE Software Compilation 4''' in the early days.<br />
<br />

<br />
===Activities=== <!--T:6--><br />
:'''Activities''' are sets of '''Plasma''' ''widgets'' that have their own wallpaper. A bit like [[#Virtual Desktops|Virtual Desktops]], but not quite. <br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
:For example you have a "work activity" with commit rss feeds, a note with your TODO, a ''Folder View'' with your work related files, and a subtle wallpaper. <br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
:Next to it, you have your "freetime activity", with previews of family photos and dogs, rss feeds from your favourite blogs, a Folder View showing your movie collection, a twitter applet and of course that Iron Maiden wallpaper you have been loving since the early 80s. <br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
:At 1700 hours sharp you switch from the "work activity" to your "freetime activity".<br />

<br />
===Akonadi=== <!--T:11--><br />
:The data storage access mechanism for all ''PIM'' (Personal Information Manager) data in ''KDE SC 4''. One single storage and retrieval system allows efficiency and extensibility not possible under ''KDE 3'', where each PIM component had its own system. Note that use of '''Akonadi''' does not change data storage formats (''vcard'', ''iCalendar'', ''mbox'', ''maildir'' etc.) - it just provides a new way of accessing and updating the data.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
:The main reasons for design and development of '''Akonadi''' are of technical nature, e.g. having a unique way to access PIM-data (contacts, calendars, emails..) from different applications (e.g. '''kmail''', '''kword'''..), thus eliminating the need to write similar code here and there.<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
:Another goal is to de-couple GUI applications like '''kmail''' from the direct access to external resources like mail-servers - which was a major reason for bug-reports/wishes with regard to performance/responsiveness in the past.<br />

From here, you can start a synchronization between the collections you select here, which will default to what you have configured in the '''Amarok''' [[Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok#Metadata|Metadata]] configuration. <br />
<br />
====== Conflicts and Syncing Statistics Dialog ====== <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
When syncing, '''Amarok''' will show a dialog window which states the conflicts and statistics of the syncing that has recently been in progress. In this window you will be able to see three tabs: <menuchoice>Matched Tracks</menuchoice>, <menuchoice>Unique Tracks</menuchoice> and <menuchoice>Excluded Tracks</menuchoice>.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
[[Image:MatchedTracksPage.png|400px|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
;Matched Tracks<br />
:This tab will show all the tracks that '''Amarok''' has found in more than one collection, and reflects conflicts. When tracks are grouped, you can see two types of background: light green, and light red. A light green background indicates the new or updated field, whilst a light red background will indicate the old/overwritten field. You do not need to solve all conflicts listed here; the particular field of the listed tracks are not going to be synced if you do not resolve the conflict.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
;Unique Tracks<br />
:These are tracks found in only one collection. You can use it as a ''difference view''. Track dragging is supported here.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
;Excluded Tracks<br />
:These are tracks that are not synced because of different reasons, such as identical metadata, so as not cause to disorder in the database.<br />
<br />
===== Synchronizing with Last.fm ===== <!--T:25--><br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
If you have the Last.fm plugin enabled and configured correctly with your Last.fm account, you can choose to also synchronize your '''Amarok''' play counts, ratings and labels with your Last.fm Library. The sync takes some time, but you may continue using '''Amarok''' while it is syncing. Please note that Unattended Synchronization (which will be explained later on) is not possible with Last.fm, and synchronization from Last.fm to '''Amarok''' needs to be initiated manually.<br />
<br />
====== Spelling Auto-Correction ====== <!--T:11--><br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
Last.fm enables by default a feature that will auto-correct common misspelling during the sync. It can happen that even if you scrobble many track plays, it does not show up in Matched Tracks as Last.fm knows the track under a slightly different name. <br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
[[Image:last.fm-spelling-correction.png|400px|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
You can disable this feature on the Last.fm site, and changes will be applied also to your past scrobbles. You have two options:<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
;Off<br />
:Tracks are matched properly, but if you change your tags after some time, your play-count will be split in two tracks.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
;On<br />
:You can play-count the tracks even if tags are changed after some time, but you will have to use Last.fm preferred spelling.<br />
<br />
===== Unattended Syncing ===== <!--T:17--><br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
{{Remember|1=Please note the dialog will only appear in the case of iPods.}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
When you connect a device that is able to sync with your collections, a pop-up like this will appear.<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
[[Image:iPod-connected-dialog.png|center]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:21--><br />
For unattended syncing to start, you only need to click <menuchoice>Yes</menuchoice> in the pop-up. '''Amarok''' will work in the background, so the metadata in your device including ratings, first/last played times, play counts and labels will be synced with other collections [[Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok#Metadata|configured to participate in the synchronization]], and tracks recently played on the device will be scrobbled to Last.fm, if it is enabled. The process will not ask for user interaction unless any conflict is found in the middle.<br />
