This little applet shows a preview of the virtual desktops, lets you switch between virtual desktops and gives you the ability to move windows from one desktop to another by dragging them.
There is also a very useful context menu used to configure this applet:
This opens the configuration dialog for virtual desktops. There you can specify how many desktops you want to have and give them names.
In this submenu you can configure the appearance of the Mini-Pager. It provides the following functionality:
In this section you can choose in how many or the desktop previews are arranged, if you want to see which windows are currently visible on the desktops and if icons should indicate the applications running on the different vitual desktops.
Here you can choose if the desktop previews should be labeled by their numbers, their names or if you you don't want them to be labeled at all.
You can set the background of the pager to , or equivalent to the .
This launches the application KPager, which provides functions similar to those offered by the Mini-Pager applet.
