Listmates,

This will obviously draw a "Duh??" response from most of you, but for those that don't know you can do this, it may remove a frustration with kde4.

For me the peanut/cashew has always been a pain, not because it doesn't work -- it works just fine, but it always prevented me from configuring the top-right corner of my desktop the way I wanted. Basically the blooming peanut was always in the way. So out of frustration, I just put my mouse on it clicked -> held-down and dragged that sucker out of the way and -- it worked! First I just moved it down far enough to put my digital clock in the corner -- finally.

When you put it on an edge, the cashew has a nice rectangular tab. Next I put it in the top-left corner out of my desktop and it returned to the normal 1/4 circle corner widget. Give it a go if you need to recapture one corner of your desktop.



Yup. Mine found its way to the top left corner as well.

For me the reason I wanted to do this was I test KDE in a Virtual machine, and that
VM is not always the same size window, (some times its maximized, some times its not)
and the cashew was off screen.


I see no valid reason to put it top right. Its not where people
normally look for that sort of stuff.
