The whole point of activities is you can shut one down when you are done with it and it remembers all of the applications and starts them up again when you start the activity. So when you are not using an activity, you just stop it. When you need it again you start it and all your applications are there waiting for you.
Having revisited this I'm perplexed.
I can see how to create activities and destroy them. Could you help me by explaining how I could load up an activity, say with a collection of word processing tools or a collection of software development tools, then shut it down to resurrect it later in the same state?
Detailed explanation if you like/need it: 1. Right click the desktop->Activities 2. Click an Activity that is not loaded up (one with a little red x over it) 3. This newly chosen Activity will be automatically turned on and switched to. 4. Run some programs. 5. Right click the desktop->Activities 6. For one of the two Activities that you are now running, click the black and white stop button 7. The same Activity icon should show a black and white play button now, if you click it, the Activity will load back up with all the previous running programs loaded up again I suggest right clicking the desktop all the time to see your Activities because I believe this option exists no matter what version of KDE4 you are using. It's also doesn't take this many steps to set up and use Activities, but I just wanted you to see what you can do with them :)
That might just prove the initiative for me, and I suspect a few others here.
