Plasma 4.4 常见问题
Template:I18n/Language Navigation Bar
Plasma工作空间（The Plasma Workspace）是 KDE SC 4 中一个关键技术 (被誉为 “KDE 的支柱”)，是用户最直观的东西。由于 Plasma 不同于传统桌面的方式对待用户界面，可能会有关于 Plasma 是什么、它做些什么、以及如何进行常规任务的疑惑。
本文档将通过一些最常见问题的解答来试图理清这些问题。
常规问题
Plasma 是用来干什么的？
Plasma 是 KDE 的默认工作空间（workspace）（桌面界面）。它包括一个程序启动器（开始菜单），桌面和桌面面板（经常特指任务栏面板)。然而Plasma不仅仅是工具的类似收集而已, 她是一个通用的创建整合界面的框架。 她足够灵活到为移动设备（手机和上网本），多媒体中心和桌面电脑提供操作界面；让传统的桌面比拟（the traditional desktop metaphor）支持那样设计的那样是无法想像的。
Plasma 是如何工作的？
Plasma 的主要组件是部件。部件具有各式各样的功能，从展现你的桌面和指定的墙纸、显示你的笔记本电池电量、显示你插入的设备到绘制任务栏：基本上，它们是生活在桌面上的小程序。此外，部件可以按组聚合在“容器”中，像是面板，甚至是桌面本身。
Folder View 文件夹视图 小程序是什么？
Folder View 文件夹视图 小程序，正如其名，是用来显示目录中的项目（文件夹、文件）的。这种目录可以是属于你计算机的本地目录，也可以是远程 FTP、SSH 或 SMB 共享文件。将来，它还会包含 Nepomuk 搜索和标记结果的虚拟目录。
你可以选择显示所有的文件，或者用具体的正则表达式（比如，带有某个扩展名的所有文件)或是文件类型（比如，仅显示图像）过滤。
此小程序还支持基本的文件管理操作属性（例如移动、复制、剪切和粘贴），并且你可以在你桌面上放置任意数量的文件夹视图。
最后,你可以用一个文件夹视图作为整个桌面，事实上复制了"旧样式"的桌面模式。
KRunner 是什么？
KRunner 是个万用的迷你命令行程序。你可以按下"Alt-F2"或者从桌面上下文菜单中选择"运行命令"激活它。它可以按照你的输入搜索应用程序、书签、甚至会话，显示系统活动甚至进行简单的算术计算。
KRunner 的功能可以通过使用插件("runners")进行扩展。
“腰果”是什么东西？
What is commonly referred as "cashew" is the Plasma toolbox, the logo you can find on the default desktop, on the upper right corner, and on the panel, on the right hand side (left hand side if you use a Right-To-Left language). By clicking on them, you can access other configuration options. Some of these only appear if the widgets aren't locked (see below).
Please provide an option to disable the upper right cashew.
Although putting an option to disable the cashew for desktops sounds reasonable, from a coding point of view it would introduce unnecessary complexity and would break the design. What has been suggested is, since the destkop itself (a containment) is handled by plugins, to write a plugin that would draw the desktop without the cashew itself. As a matter of fact, some distributions ship already a "Desktop without cashew" plugin.
What is the Zooming User Interface (ZUI)?
The Zooming User Interface, or ZUI, is another component of Plasma. It enables the user to group different groups of plasmoids together, and to quickly switch between one and another using a zoom-and-pan approach. Notice that the Zooming User Interface is going to be radically changed for the 4.5 release of the KDE SC.
How does the ZUI work?
Suppose you have three groups of plasmoids (such as widgets, application launchers, etc.) which you want arranged in specific combinations depending on what you want to do. You first group them according to your tastes, then you can switch between them by zooming out (getting a preview of all the groups) and then back in on the specific group you want to use. Notice that it is different from traditional X11 virtual desktop switching, as there is a higher degree of flexibility by using this approach, as the groups can be totally different from each other.
A very good example of this behavior is shown by this image courtesy of Half-Left from #kde on freenode.
That said, you can tie virtual desktops to ZUI activities.
