However, it's possible that's what Anne was referring to, but if so, I misunderstood her pin reference (which as I said I couldn't picture based on her description, so it's quite possible I /did/ misunderstand, thus the request for some image so I could picture it, as well). An amazing number of solutions to a single problem :-) Your Crescent Wrench is the one that I have - a slightly smaller and lighter version of David's. None of the other pictures look like the other one he uses. Imagine a single piece of iron, like a flattened umbrella handle. Underneath the curve is serrated to be one half of the jaw, and down the straight are a number of holes. A second, entirely separate piece of iron fits around the handle, with the curved upper surface being serrated. There is a single hole, where a pin locates it into the adjustable part. It's a very primitive tool, to my eye. Maybe I can get a photo of it.

You're wanting to configure your Cups printer default settings, you can do this 3 ways. 1) Go into System Settings, Printer, choose the printer and configure the options. 2) If you have an HP printer run the HP Device Manager (hp-toolbox), select your printer, and configure the settings under the 'Print Settings' tab. 3) In your web browser go to http://localhost:631/ and configure Cups there.

Also, the corners to the right are cut off (because otherwise they would appear rounded.) In the right part of the widget are entries of my calendar shown. So you may have no calendars in Korganizer/Akonadi and because of this the area is clear. I don't have KOrganizer installed (since I don't need an organizer). I also don't have Akonadi installed either. Because of that, I think that empty area shouldn't be there. I guess I should report this as a bug. Yes please. It shows Holidays and Akonadi events, but is blank if there are none. We should probably have a header or message of some sorts if there are no events or holidays in that month, and no space if the user doesn't have Holidays or Events enabled. One suggestion was also to show a mini weather forcast in that space, or the other selected timezones. John. ___ This message is from the kde mailing list.

I had the idea to enable nearly all of them so I could learn about the holidays of different cultures (at least for the Latin/Roman Alphabet, Russian and Chinese look really cool, but don't help me know what to wikisearch/google, but for instance Spanish and French are at least searchable since they're Latin alphabet), getting them in one big scrolling list. But it just cuts down on the number of days displayed, then. (Tho I /think//hope/ it'd display all holidays for the currently selected day, at least, even if there's like 20 of them.) That's an idea I've had for a Plasma widget for a while, World Holidays Today, must get around to implementing it. It would be handy in the Kontact Summary screen too. One problem is the holidays are only in their native languages for now. John. ___ This message is from the kde mailing list. Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde.
