One click on the "Show plasma dashboard" button brings the folder view applets to the front plane and into focus, without minimising any open windows.
I tried that, and it just appeared to show the desktop, without program windows.
That's its purpose, show the desktop and its applets and not the program windows. Why would you click on a button to show the program windows you see already anyway?
A second click on any of the folders launches a dolphin session in split view mode with the selected target in one pane and my home in the other. The locations of the folder applets can be configured to work with a whole load of handy locations courtesy of our friends the kio slaves. ( ssh(fish), ipod, smb, to name just a few)
But how on earth are we supposed to know that?
How did you know that you could right-click the desktop in kde3? How did you know that one can drag and drop?
I'd not think of clicking on a folder, and as I had default SuSE desktop, what was shown was not of particular interest to me.
Since it contains the same icons as kde3 did, I guess you deleted all of them on your default kde3 desktop too?
May be, it needs some kind of tutorial mode, a bit like games, which guide you through the basics to get you started?
