    This module allows configuring activities. Activities are a way to have multiple <span class="productname">Plasma</span> setups, with each a different set of widgets and themes. Some activities can be private. Such activities do not track your actions. For example, they do not track what recent document you opened.
</p><p>
    The module is divided into three tabs:
    <a class="link" href="index.html#activities-main" title="Activities"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Activities</span></span></a>,
    <a class="link" href="index.html#activities-switching" title="Switching"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Switching</span></span></a>, and
    <a class="link" href="index.html#activities-privacy" title="Privacy"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Privacy</span></span></a>.
</p><div class="sect3"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a name="activities-main"></a><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Activities</span></span></h4></div></div></div><p>
    This tab lists your current activities. Hover items in the list with the mouse pointer to reveal the buttons to configure or remove activities.
</p><p>
    Use the <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="configure.png"></span> overlay button to configure activity. You can change the following activity parameters:
</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Icon</span></span></span></dt><dd><p>
                The icon of activity can be seen on the activity manager selector of the <span class="productname">Plasma</span> panel. Click on the current icon to choose some system-wide icon or browse the file system to select a custom icon.
            </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Name</span></span></span></dt><dd><p>
                Give your activity a recognizable name.
            </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Description</span></span></span></dt><dd><p>
                A free-form description of the activity that is shown below the name on the activity manager selector of the <span class="productname">Plasma</span> panel.
            </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Privacy</span></span></span></dt><dd><p>
                Check the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Do not track usage for this activity</span></span> item to switch off any tracking for your activity.
            </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Shortcut for switching</span></span></span></dt><dd><p>
                Press the first button to input the new shortcut to switch to the activity. Press the second button to remove the current shortcut.
            </p></dd></dl></div><p>
    Clicking on the <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="edit-delete.png"></span> button removes the activity.
</p><p>
    Clicking on the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guibutton">Create New...</span></span> button below the list opens <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Create a New Activity</span></span> dialog which is similar to the activity configuration dialog described above.
</p></div><div class="sect3"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a name="activities-switching"></a><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Switching</span></span></h4></div></div></div><p>
    Here, you can configure if <span class="productname">Plasma</span> should remember the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Current virtual desktop</span></span> for each activity (needs restart). It is also possible to configure shortcuts for walking through the list of activities.
</p><p>
    For more information on how to use the <span class="orgname">KDE</span> shortcut system, see the <a class="ulink" href="help:/fundamentals/shortcuts.html" target="_top"><span class="emphasis"><em>Using and Customizing Shortcuts</em></span> section of the <span class="emphasis"><em><span class="orgname">KDE</span> Fundamentals</em></span> documentation</a>.
</p></div><div class="sect3"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a name="activities-privacy"></a><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Privacy</span></span></h4></div></div></div><p>
    This tab allows configuring the time for activities to <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Keep history</span></span> and clean some tracking data. Use the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guibutton">Clear History</span></span> drop-down button to make <span class="productname">Plasma</span> <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Forget the last hour</span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Forget the last two hours</span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Forget a day</span></span>, or <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Forget everything</span></span>.
</p><p>
    Below, you can configure the range of applications for memorizing opened documents in your activities. Use the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">For all applications</span></span> item to store all data, the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Do not remember</span></span> item to switch off storing data, or <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Only for specific applications</span></span> item for fine-grained selection (clicking on the application item toggles its current mode).
</p><p>
    Check the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Blacklist applications not on the list</span></span> item to switch off tracking for all applications that are not on the list.
