[plasmashell] [Bug 341143] Wallpaper on every desktop is gone.

[mc via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341143

--- Comment #194 from mc  ---
I add to this painful debate with huge caution.

I use 3 screens, 6 virtual desktops (obviously of 3 screens each) 
On three of the virtual desktops I have a dual screen virtual machine, 
and each of the 3 dual screen VMs has 4 virtual desktops. 

I keep track of where I am by wallpaper.
I move between the virtual desktops with mouse scroll.  
I move stuff between the virtual desktops, also with mouse scroll.  
Mostly I am moving data between the desktops so data from one can be input to
or compared with another.

Sounds complex but the VMs simply contain the risks
and the multiple virtual desktops metaphor allows me to move things around
easily to visualize and see patterns.

I agree with @Janet #21  and @Nathanael #22 on usability.
I really tried activities multiple times, I wanted to love them. 
But, and it may be a reflection of my poor upbringing,  just hate them.

I may have a longer memory than most, (except @loop.rw #38 and @zeke123 #94 who
raised the same point)
or may just be older,
but we had the same issue in going from the beautiful, magic kde3 to the
initially non-functional kde4:
devs also then attempted to force users to use activities and did not have
different wallpapers / desktop
So I did not upgrade from Kubuntu 8.04 until 12.04, when kde4 finally reached
feature parity with kde3.

I bought another machine last week, and installed kubuntu 14.04 on it, not
16.04, *only* because of this.
So now I am on kubuntu 14.04, and obviously will be staying with it quite a
while longer
Hopefully not past 14.04's end of life, but I will if I have to.  
How I work is too important too me to mess with, and I can manage the security.

Plus the beauty of kde4, like the beauty of kde3 before it, is really hard to
part with.

finally, @David Edmundson, you are a hero - not just for getting stuff done
but for the feedback to users.

Hope this has been a positive contribution.

[Breeze] [Bug 356395] Missing asset in gtk3 theme

(In reply to Aleix Pol from comment #7)
> https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126970/

These comments also added in the review notes.

I tested this my making changes in
/usr/share/themes/Breeze-Dark/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and in
/usr/share/themes/Breeze/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

There were two edits because of the name change.  Furthermore, there were
already three other lines with the new names already in place.

The changes were made only in the css for gtk-3.0.

Regards,
Efrem McCrimon

I can confirm that this happens everytime on my system.  I have two monitors
one on DVI and another on HDMI.  The HDMI is primary.  Whenever I turn one of
them on/off I get a crash on plasma and a bug report generates.

No, there is no specification which tells Gtk to provide this.
I agree that it is related to breeze because GTK is kindly reporting the
warning.
GTK is not crashing but I have other issues relating to Xorg with Nvidia
(nvidia driver) with two monitors.

So how do I report a bug  for the breeze theme?

This is a gtk-3.0 issue as this occurs with Plasma 5.5.4 as the

file does not exist.
