Hi Ellis!

Ahh, I see.

Hmm, can't do this as the integer is dynamic. I use the following code:

    m_toDesktop = new KListAction( i18n("To Desktop"), 0, this, 
SLOT(slotToDesktop(int)), actionCollection(), "to_desktop" );

to construct a listaction, containing all available desktops. Problem: the 
connection to slotToDesktop(int) doesn't work anymore with the new code in 
KAction. Any idea how to fix it? The following line populates the menu before 
it is shown:

    connect( m_toDesktop->popupMenu(), SIGNAL(aboutToShow()), this, 
SLOT(slotUpdateDesktopActions()) );

which works fine.

Thanks,
