    KDE is by far the kings of customizing i love tinkering whit my look and feel it never ends.

    Excellent introduction to the murky realms of KDE customisation. There is so much you can do in both functionality and visuals but it is quite intimidating when you first look at it.

    Thanks so much for this. I've got so many wallpapers I've collected over the years I use the "slideshow" feature. Love seeing something different every few minutes.

    You should add a medium blur effect to the theme. The amount of transparency on the theme sometimes makes it hard to see the menu on the background.

    Such a great video! I've just returned to KDE after many years with XFCE, and a LOT has changed, especially the customisation. Your tutorial has made it so much easier - thank you.

    For me personally kde is most familiar when it comes to using it and customizing it. Over the years many things changed in kde bringing much needed improvements. I like kde's insane customizability.

    Thanks for the video. I think a part 2 of KDE customization like a pro with a docking app (plank / cairo/ latte) on the bottom and nice customized panel on top and maybe some other customization would be a valuable addition for those that want to customize even further but aren't too knowledgeable on other stuff they can do with KDE.
    A KDE customization video series every week or maybe twice a week would be another good idea I suppose, since you have spent alot of time using KDE. I'm sure folks would appreciate you sharing your knowledge and tips of stuff that can be done. EVERYONE has different tastes, but you could further shows why KDE is much better and more customizable or functional than Micrsoft windows or Mac ever could be. JUST a thought. Loved the video!

    Very good video. I always hold back from customizing as I am unsure of how to revert them. I am looking for an easy way to reset all customizations and revert to the default settings. Is there an easy way to revert to the default, factory settings? Can you give a set of commands to execute and/or remove files or folders to revert to default? This way we can reset to default and start a new customization from scratch.

    • @eBuzzCentral
      @eBuzzCentral  Před rokem +1

      If you are talking about editing specific icons for applications you will want to right clip on the app launcher icon and select edit applications. Then do a search for the specific application and when it pops up, click on the icon and then you can change it. Once you select the icon you want be sure to save the changes before exiting.

    Great guide on how to customise the KDE desktop! There's so many themes, icons, wall papers you could spend days searching and trying out.
    I gave the layan theme a go and don't mind it, but didn't like the hiding min/max buttons. So just went back to regular breeze for the windows decorations. There's some great KDE plasma splash screens out there too.
    One thing you glossed over with the app launcher icon was you can add whatever icon you like if you hit browse. I'm currently using Manjaro, so downloaded a couple of different coloured manjaro style icons to compliment the theme I'm using.,

    You didn't touch any of the actual advanced customizations that KDE allows the user to do.

    I tried that EXLIGHT distro-- TWICE-- on VM and actual install-- and it would NOT boot past an entry screen- asking for name and password-- and I put what they had written in the instructions -- "user, live" and it would NOT accept it-- so I couldn't get any further.. looks good and I'd love to try it-- but can't. All the stuff goes by so fast when it's loading and is small and I can't see wht to do..

    What can I do about that screen that comes up during BOOT that has the distro name and advance and couple choices- and it waits several seconds or I hit enter then it goes to the regular sign in screen with name /password.. ? Like an EXTRA screen that comes up first and waits.. can I get rid of that- so it goes directly to sign in??
