In my e-mail archive, I found a msg from Dan Johansson 200102 :

That line was in [Containments][7],
but changing it as above does in fact restore the Left Button
& I now have that assigned to 'applauncher' & R-click to 'contextmenu'.
Does anyone know of a man or help file
for plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ?
Belated thanks to Don.

Sharing the whole first part for Actionplugins just in case it will help. root@fireball / # cat /home/dale/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc [ActionPlugins][0] MidButton;NoModifier=org.kde.paste RightButton;NoModifier=org.kde.contextmenu [ActionPlugins][0][RightButton;NoModifier] _add panel=true _context=true _lock_screen=true _logout=true _run_command=true _sep1=true _sep2=true _sep3=true _wallpaper=true add widgets=true configure=true configure shortcuts=false lock widgets=true manage activities=true remove=true run associated application=true [ActionPlugins][1] RightButton;NoModifier=org.kde.contextmenu In the past when something stops working, I sometimes rename the config directories to *.old and then start fresh. Sometimes it is a old method that is no longer supported that stops things from working. I haven't had to do that in a long time tho. Generally, during the first login after a upgrade, it updates config files to be compatible with new settings. Still, I thought it worth a mention. Hope the info helps. Dale :-) :-)
[gentoo-user] KDE has lost some desktop mouse actions
Some time ago, KDE lost the ability to assign to desktop Left-Click ; now it has also lost the ability to assign to desktop Middle-Click ; only desktop Right-Click remains, which cb assigned either to Context Menu or to Applications Launcher, both of which are useful : this is done in ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc , in which I now have at the top : [ActionPlugins][0] LeftButton;NoModifier=org.kde.paste MidButton;NoModifier=org.kde.contextmenu RightButton;NoModifier=org.kde.applauncher wheel:Vertical;NoModifier=org.kde.switchdesktop Has anyone managed to assign an action to Left- or Middle-Click ? I am using the latest (210123) versions of Qt Frameworks Plasma. -- ,, SUPPORT ___//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT`-O--O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
