Re: Please, This Is NOT a Flame...

Chani said in her blog that the folder view can be used as a containment. Is that right? And if yes, does this containment support a background image? If these requirements are met there is a functionally equal replacement for kdesktop.

from link above:

aseigo:
"In 4.2 we'll be separating context menus and background rendering from containments so that those functionalities can be easily shared; so while in 4.1 you can set the folder view as your desktop containment ... it's not going to be as pretty as it will be in 4.2. In 4.2 it will be completely seamless, whereas right now you'll get a "nice" wallpaper based on the applet background svg. Call it the Model T wallpaper: any colour you want, as long as it's the applet background ;)"

short: in 4.1 folders on desktop only on black/one-color background ;]

PS. I love idea ofviewing different folders on desktop. I wanted it for years. Thx!
