[KDE] Window List Troubles

So, in my KDE setup, which I've recently started using, I tend to have many open windows and programs, and after about 7, I like to minimize them all by using the Show Desktop widget, but whenever I open another program, it brings all the minimized programs back to whatever size they were when I minimized them. I'd like them to stay minimized, but I can't find an option for that. Can anyone suggest a fix, or tell me if I even CAN keep them minimized? It's been annoying me, and I'm both stubborn and OCD, so I'd like to fix it.

Thanks in advance

Re: [KDE] Window List Troubles

It's a feature not a bug, "show desktop" does not mean "minimize all"

But there is a hidden method, put

ShowDesktopIsMinimizeAll=true

into ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc below [Windows]

Yes, I knew it was a feature, just didn't know if it was a way to change it

Thank you very much!
