| '''Plasma''' is one of the key technologies of KDE 4 (also known as the "Pillars of KDE"), and one of the most visible to users. As Plasma treats the user interface differently than a traditional desktop, there may be confusion as to what Plasma is, what it does, and how to perform common tasks.
| | These are temporary working pages: |
| | | {{:Special:PrefixIndex/{{FULLPAGENAME}}/}} |
| The purpose of this document is to show how to preform common tasks in Plasma. Each HOWTO consists of one topic and a short animation, which is reached by clicking on the link.

| |
| :The animation is encoded in the GIF format and can thus be viewed in most modern web browsers without any additional plugins installed. Note that the animation is looped. | |
| |}
| |
| | |
| {{Note|Almost all HOWTOs assume that the widgets are unlocked. See [http://www.x.se/npw Unlock widgets] for instructions on how to unlock them.}} | |
| {{Note|Due to distribution-specific customizations, your desktop might differ from those in the HOWTOs. | |
| In particular, if you miss the top-right toolbox (shown as a yellow icon), you can reach most options by right-clicking on the desktop.}}
