Configureu l'escriptori

Other languages:

La configuració de l'escriptori ha canviat molt entre KDE 3.5 i KDE 4. Per a aquesta actualització, és necessària una petita explicació.

Icones

Repte: Voleu posar icones a l'escriptori (com: «veure la televisió» o «joc Pingus»).

Solució:

Amb KDE 3.5, feu clic dret i trieu l'opció «Crea enllaç a aplicació».
Amb KDE 4 és molt més complicat:
- Enfocament a la carpeta Escriptori.
  - Inicieu el Konqueror, seleccioneu Ajuda -> Quant a KDE. Comproveu que teniu el KDE 4.2 com a mínim.
  - Feu clic dret sobre l'escriptori, seleccioneu Arranjament de Escriptori -> Tipus -> Vista de carpeta.
  - En el 4.5 es fa en Arranjament de Escriptori -> Activitats -> Tipus -> Vista de carpeta.
  - Feu clic dret sobre l'escriptori, seleccioneu Crea nou... -> Enllaç a aplicació.
- Enfocament en «arrossega i deixa».
  - Obriu un gestor de fitxers i arrossegueu el fitxer desitjat cap a l'escriptori. Hi apareixerà com a icona.

Example

Let's assume you want an icon on your desktop that starts Konqueror:

find out where the executable is located
- start a konsole by Alt + F2 and then typing
```
konsole
```
- type
```
which konqueror
```
  let's assume the response is
```
/usr/local/bin/konqueror
```
- point your konqueror to where you can find your executable, in this case /usr/local/bin
- drag-and-drop konqueror onto your desktop

Now you can start konqueror by clicking onto the konqueror icon on your desktop

Plasma

Your desktop is now based on Plasma. This makes it possible to run widgets (sometimes referred to as plasmoids) on it, e.g. a clock that docks directly to your desktop and is not surrounded by a border. To add the "clock" widget, right-click onto your desktop and choose Add widget.... E.g. choose the Analog Clock Widget there.

Reorganitzeu el plafó

Most of us are creatures of habit, and like our panel to show icons in a familiar order. Plasma appears to drop icons in a random order, but you can re-arrange them as long as you have KDE 4.1 or later. If you have the Panel Controller (which looks like a Cashew in a semi-circle) on the right hand edge of your panel, you can re-order or change the size and justification of the panel. See Can I move the applets on the panel?

Many more such hints are on the Plasma FAQ pages.

Accediu als fitxers en un escriptori remot

Under KDE3, if you had an fstab mount to a remote directory you got an icon on your desktop. This doesn't happen in KDE4, but there's an even better way to reach your files.

Create a folderview (right-click on desktop, Add Widgets -> Folderview). It will be pointing to your home directory by default, but click on the spanner on the handle, to get properties, and you can direct it to open in your remote home. If you keep your folder fairly small you'll be able to scroll down to the exact directory you need, and open it in Konqueror (which in some versions seems to be the default for remote directories. It may well be that this can be changed, too.)

Més que un gestor de fitxers

Everything mentioned as possible in Konqueror can also be done in Dolphin. At first glance you might think Dolphin lacks features, but read the pages linked from the Dolphin page to learn the new features that make it so powerful.
