If we add this to Kicker, it won't work in any of these other ways to launch an app:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">KRunner</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">"Start New Instance" in the Task Manager</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">The Icon applet in the panel or on the desktop</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">The menu desktop containment action</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">File associations</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Global shortcuts</li>
</ul>
<p>...</p>
<p>We'd end up patching this in all over the place. :(</p>
<p>I think it would make more sense to do it a bit like this:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">A new X-KDE-* .desktop file key for "start on discrete"</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Code in KPropertiesDialog and kmenuedit to set this bit</li>
</ul>
<p>The above write out a .desktop file in $HOME shadowing the system one; it's how you e.g. also change an app's icon on the system to a custom one.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D3242" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/D3242</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>EMAIL PREFERENCES</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>jgrulich, Plasma, hein<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>davidedmundson, graesslin, plasma-devel, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas<br /></div>
