[plasmashell] [Bug 447673] A button to restore panels back to default (or to the last state for undoing changes)

No, I didn't. > Would that do what you want? Functionally it would (or could) be the main part of it. However, this issue is less about a functionality to restore back to default than an easily visible button to restore back to default that even newbies or basically KDE-using school-children and grandmas would see and use if they accidentally screwed things up. The button would have almost not use if it was buried somewhere, it should for example be visible by right click->edit panel->right click on any panel. Moreover, people could also screw up other panels (with screwing up I mainly mean configuring it in an undesirable way and making it worse trying to fix it). This is why a restore all panels back to previous state and/or default button/s would be very useful (including for example removing an accidentally added panel at the top) . -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It was really rough and buggy before then. Currently, sessions are breaking from time to time but I think, unlike early on, it now takes mere seconds to restore the session. I switched despite of it being somewhat buggy to solve the screen tearing problems of videos (the only alternative to this that also prevented screen tearing was Disabling "Allow applications to block compositing" in Display Configuration -> Compositor) and because I'd switch sooner or later anyway (partly due to Wayland security advantages). > Yeah, can we get a new bug report for each other issue? It seems to be related to this problem here so if anything it's a subproblem of this one. I'd create a new bug report but it's solved currently and didn't happen again and is probably difficult to replicate (if it's not fixed already anyway). Will create a new bug report if it happens again. > When you delete a widget, the system shows a notification with an Undo button > on it.

However, while useful this doesn't let you restore the default or undo multiple changes or undo changes after this short timespan. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The version of Qt you're using probably doesn't have the KDE patch collection. In general I would not recommend using the Wayland session in any version of Plasma earlier than 5.23.
