           Summary: Pager can't display name of desktop as text over
                    miniature of desktop

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I can make pager display number of desktop but name is not possible to choose. I wish to see name of each desktop over it's miniature in applet.

What we must consider when adding this is:
1) New combobox in settings instead of current checkbox
2) Names are usually quite long, at least longer than width of miniature of desktop. We should increase width of miniature to the width of longest name. Although we shouldn't do that when panel is on left or right because space is quite limited then.
3) When calculating width of miniature we should add some additional pixels to add margin between text and borders
4) Since we increase only one dimension, we have to split m_scaleFactor into m_widthScaleFactor and m_heightScaleFactor
