Please add a line that indicates the date that you write each of your blog entries. It’s really frustrating to read OLD information but not see any clue as to how OLD it is!

Is it possible to set the focus policy (to follow cursor) and NOT move the contents when a window is moved in KDE4.1 for Solaris10 ?

thanks
Michael

Try the Task Bar plasmoid :)

@Paul:
You will really love KDE, especially if you are using the 4.2 betas. And it comes with so much software preinstalled, I hardly ever venture out to non-KDE apps.

I realy think the office part is very fast. And i like the PIM-suite, KStars and Kig, etc. I realy like that it is not hard to use. Nice clear graphics to.
Thank you for pointing out this software to me.

i have been using the Shade option in all of my Linux desktops since the days I used AfterStep. I guess for me it’s an easy way to keep all of my opened windows organized. i tend to line up windows so when they are shaded their title bars sit in horizontal rows. maybe i should attach a pic so it better shows what i am talking about.

Thanks. I have noticed that KDE 4 has similar windows behaviour to MS Windows, for better or for worse. Note that when using the Shade option (which was default in KDE 3) when apps are maximized, often one gets the appearance that the shown titlebar belongs to the window below it! I really do not like the shade option and see no real-world use for it.

I cannot wait for KDE 4.2 (a new dot-point release comes out about every six months). I have been testing the betas and filing bugs, and it really looks like the future of desktop computing. It is easy for Windows user to use in it’s default configuration, yet has in ingenious new Desktop idea that takes completely redefines what the area under your open windows is used for.
