Testing a new Trinity profile. I tested these quirks three ways: skipping kpersonalizer,
configuring kpersonalizer for minimum effects, and accepting all defaults in
kpersonalizer.
============================================
The panel height is preconfigured to Small. When the new Trinity profile opens, the height
is indeed Small.
Yet when I open the panel configuration box the size says Normal.
============================================
In /usr/share/config.kcfg/kickerSettings.kcfg I have panel set to 1) no mouseover effects,
2) no icon activation effects, and 3) no tooltips. I create those settings when I build
the package and the kickerSettings.kcfg gets installed with my preferred settings.
When I open the configuration box the first time all three settings are enabled, which I
can confirm with straightforward usability tests of the desktop.
============================================
In /usr/share/config.kcfg/kdesktop.kcfg I have shadow text off and white text on. With a
new profile the text is black with shadows.
If I accept the defaults from kpersonalizer, then the text is white but shadows remain
on.
============================================
Default icon theme is now Crystal SVG. Crystal SVG is the icon theme when I skip
kpersonalizer or accept the defaults. When I select minimum desktop effects in
kpersonalizer, the icon theme is KDE Classic.
============================================
With minimum desktop effects or defaults in kpersonalizer, the bouncing mouse cursor
reappears, despite the default being non-busy. Seems the only way to get the default
non-busy cursor is to skip kpersonalizer.
