Description Rasmus Plewe 2006-01-12 15:34:53 UTC 
kcontrol -> KDE Components -> Session Manager: The help text for "On Login" says a session can be saved via the "Save session" button in the K-Menu. Now

- There is no K-Menue (as we have this green blob: who would recognise it as the K-Menue?)
- There is no "Save Session" button in that menue.
Comment 1 Lubos Lunak 2006-01-12 15:56:02 UTC 
The save session menu option only appears when the option in the control module is enabled, there's otherwise no point in showing it.
And WRT K-Menu, it's referred to as such all over KDE - are we expected to change all those to "green blob menu", including translations?
Comment 2 Stephan Kulow 2006-01-12 16:02:21 UTC 
I leave it to the documentation team to decide the later. I guess, a little "Please note that the green blob menu is often referred to as K-Menu in other documentation" could very well be added to our docu - assuming of course Rasmus already read that one and it's not there.
Comment 3 Karl Eichwalder 2006-01-12 17:54:44 UTC 
coolo's proposal sounds like a wise remedy.  tom to distribute the doc job.
Comment 4 Rasmus Plewe 2006-01-13 14:39:54 UTC 
No, I have to admit that I didn't read "our docu". Not all of it anyway. Have you? 

In general, adding something like "Save settings button which will appear in the K menue when this option is active" into the help text would perhaps be a good idea. For upstream, probably. Including translations.
Comment 5 Thomas Roelz 2006-02-20 14:44:27 UTC 
Tanja is responsible for KDE in the documentation now.
Comment 6 Tanja Roth 2006-04-03 09:14:33 UTC 
The text in the online help Rasmus is referring to is not under our control, it is part of the KDE Online Help which is provided by the community (the KDE Help Center includes help texts which derive from various sources). 

We will follow Kulow's proposal to add a note about the "relationship" between the green main menu button and the K-Menu in the next version of "our" KDE documentation.

Comment 10 Stephan Kulow 2008-06-25 09:53:14 UTC 
Closing old LATER+REMIND bugs as WONTFIX - if you still plan to work on it, feel free to reopen and set to ASSIGNED.

In case the report saw repeated reopen comments, it's due to bugzilla timing out on the huge request ;(
