Hi Jason, If I've understood you correctly, what you want to look at is the "embedding" tab on the right hand side of the file associations screen. Look up "txt" for example. By default it's set to use embedded viewing which means it previews within Konq. Change it so that it uses external viewer and set that to Kwrite. Same if you want to view jpegs in a separate viewer and so on. Check it out, you'll see how it works. Hope that helps, David
Yep, that's exactly what I wanted as far as local files! Thanks David and Kai as well. Now, does anyone know where Firefox is getting its associations from (where it wants to use KGhostView instead of KPDF - what is set up in KDE file associations)? thanks, --Jason -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
