OK, I know life moves on, but this move has been a retrograde step for me. My konqueror:5 recently updated seems to have a number of problems and <aheam!> features I am not happy with. Grateful for any pointers to address these. In no particular order.
1. The Bookmarks Toolbar will *always* show up when launching Konqueror. I deselect Settings/Toolbars Shown/Bookmark Toolbar and relaunch the application, only to find out my deselection will not stick. 2. The menu shows no icons, only text; buttons like open new tab/close current tab show no icons, making difficult to guess. 3. When used as a file manager Konqueror will only open directories or files if I double click on them. I have set up in systemsettings5 Hardware/Input Devices/Mouse/Single click to open files and folders. Konqueror ignores it. 4. All my years of Bookmarks of Konqueror:4 gone. I had to import them manually. 5. Network places, gone. 6. Left hand Panels with Places/Devices/Folders ain't thaa'r. 7. Konqueror Introduction page, no icons; unless I hover over them, hyperlinked titles shown in dark grey over a blue background. I know my eye sight is not as good as it used to be, but this is really akin to usability sabotage. The are probably more problems I have not captured above, but my experience of konqueror:5 is that of crippleware. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, I am not running konqueror on a full plasma desktop, but as a stand alone application. Have you observed similar? -- Regards, Mick
