Exactly... In KDE platform Version 4.14.2_System Settings 4.11.11, they were all checkboxes. Desktop Effects were (are) located: System Settings -> Workspace Appearance and Behavior -> Desktop Effects -> All Effects (please see image). If I want/wanted a particular effect, I turned it on via clicking the checkbox and a checkmark appeared. If I didn't want a particular effect, I turned it off via clicking the checkbox and the checkmark would disappear and I'd have an empty checkbox (not on). In KDE Framework 5.26.0_System Settings 5.8.2 (Suse Tumbleweed), The Desktop Effects Window, shows me a list of effects that I can: (1) turn on or off (same, sort of. control is checkbox, indeterminate-checkbox, radio button. confusing.) (2) watch video help (new. interesting.) (3) display configurable options (same. ok, understand what the ui means.) (4) display information (same. ok, understand what the ui means.) It is (1) above --- Some times the control to turn the effect on or off is a standard checkbox, indeterminate-checkbox, or a radio button. A radio button indicates to the user, choose only one of many in a group. If a group is the header: Accessibility, Appearance, Focus, Tools, Virtual Desktop Switching Animation, Window Management, then even within a group the controls are different. To take a specific example. In the Accessibility Group, why is Invert a checkbox to turn on or off, but Zoom is a radio button to turn on or off? If we ignore that they are in the same Accessibility group, they look the same --- they both have (2), (3), and (4). Invert: Inverts the color of the desktop and windows Zoom: Magnify the entire desktop -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
