In previous KDE versions it seems there was an option somewhere to

A few questions that I haven't found in web searches or in KDE online help:

1. How to move the two Konsole windows to the next desktop (it appears
there are only two at this point.)  I've tried dragging them in
various directions but that doesn't work.

2. After someone replies with how do move these two Konsole windows to
the next desktop, what's the procedure to move one or both of them
back to the "main" desktop?

3. How to create an additional desktop if desired?  How to remove them?

4. How to show the identifying info for the current desktop?  Is it
"desktop #1" or something else?

Thanks.

Which version of KDE are you running?

Have you tried "On all desktops",
then switched desktops,
and then set back to "Not on all desktops" ?

(My fvwm2, windows have a "+" button which controls "stickiness".
 I prefer above method over dragging windows through the desktop
 walls, because the window retains its relative position within
 each desktop.)


Have a nice day :)
