Hi all, I solved my problem by adding my own template-layout in .local/share/plasma/layout-templates/. Thank you for your help. About the syntax of org.kde.plasma.desktop-layout.js if you can explain or give me some documents I'll very appreciate. I'm going to write a blog about this and hope

Hi, Thanks for René and Duncan's reply. Honestly it's not because *I change the menu so frequently*. It's something what I've presented in the Akademy 2017 about Plasma 5 customization, without changing any existing file. We used our own start menu icon and I set it in the desktop scripts

it's funny that you discuss about branding and nobody of the plasma dev's know HIS logo. so the discussion should not be which logo and why nobody knows the plasma brand. the question should be we need a brand and therefore we need logos for defined sizes, banners, community stuff (t-shirt,...)

Hi all, This is just an idea: since our branding of the desktop offer as "Plasma" seems to start to work, but still needs work, one of the first points that come to mind speaking about branding is the logo. What I'm proposing is to change the K logo on start menus and ksplash (and any other
