Share Your Desktop

Could be, I suppose - but I never have a reason to maximize a window I guess! (5040x2160 res does that to you). Even squeezing ‘working’ windows between conkys leaves LOTS of real estate - and multi-workspaces handles the rest… :grin:

I have been playing around with the kitty terminal and while I was messing with settings on things I set up most of my qt based apps to have some opacity to them.

I’ve done that before wasn’t an issue til I notice I could see through my emulators, for me it was a setting in kvantum

I went app by app only doing system type apps. Emulators, steam, video players, browsers and so on are still solid. I used kwin its self and then right click each title bar, then configure special window settings. The exception being kitty, that one I did in the kitty settings.config.

Always loved how can I maximize vertical space on KDE.
Trying out neon.

Nothing spectacular. Just XFCE. The panels are normally always hidden.

Thanks! It is mostly stock KDE breeze using the new color feature, latte dock and a top panel I made vaguely resemble MacOS in function. Then for the wallpapers it is set to slideshow every 5 minutes of the endeavour community wallpapers. Oh and then I used the configure special window settings section to make a bunch of the applications opaque.

I just drag them into the corners, don’t think I’ve changed any other settings but it’s been quiet a while since I set up KDE. I’ll have a look at my settings and if I see that I may have changed anything I’ll get back to you

It may have something to do with this

oh ok I wasn’t sure if you had some special magic going on there. I know in gnome pop_os makes a cool little gnome extension to make the windows tile but I haven’t found anything like that on kde other than doing as you described in dagging them to the hotcorners.
