possible to backup the tile configuration?

Open RustyRaptor opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Is there a way to backup the tile config in case I am to reset KDE or something. Where is the configuration stored?

It's stored in ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc. There should be a tileModel= which is a base64 encoded string of json.

If you copy the entire file, you'll also need ~/.config/plasmashellrc.

v28 will include a new config tab to easily copy/paste the tile data JSON.

I might add some "Save" + "Load" buttons in the future to simplify saving and loading the layouts to/from file.

I think I'll include all the other config values in the export dialog as well. The only thing left I'd need include would be the downloaded Steam Tile images, but that complicates things greatly.

Could you add an import-export button to simplify this functionality? At least then there will be less assumptions about the knowledge of the user.

Note: If you use Lattedock, the settings is maybe in: ~/.config/latte/My Layout.layout.latte
