I do see "TASK Manager > Settings", but disabling tooltips there does not affect the application > menu, the pager, the launchers, or the system tray. I should have said "Task Manager Settings" not "Taskbar Manager Settings". I see this option if I right click on any "task", which I take to refer to the rectangles containing icons describing activities in various virtual desktops, eg (in my case) bash, knode, firefox, etc. I assume the term "taskbar" refers to this portion of the panel. If I go to Task Manager Settings, and switch off the option "Show tooltips" I no longer see tooltips for the tasks (five at the moment in my case) but I still see tooltips for all the other icons/widgets in the panel, eg the clock. > > Maybe I should have said so at the start, but this is on F23 KDE/Plasma > 5 (with all patches applied). > -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
