[SOLVED] How to set system wide proxy on KDE plasma

I'm currently using an proxy utility called Clash.
https://github.com/DustinWin/clash_sing … um-release
After enabling it, back in the days I was using Gnome, by just setting HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 Proxy in system setting will just work for every application.
But in KDE plasma, setting up HTTP/SSL/SOCKS Proxy only works for KDE applications like Falkon, but not for Konsole and other non KDE applications.
I can only set up proxy for applications those having this setting like firefox, but it seems not possible on Steam.
I really need system wide proxy, since the country i live at blocks lots of website, including github which means I can't download from github in Konsole,
I don't really know what to provide but I'll provide needed info ASAP, thanks!

I solved it by adding env variable in /etc/environment file

That file belongs to PAM (pam_env) but systemd also supports it for backwards compatibility:

$ man 5 environment.d

Found:
```
kwriteconfig5 --file kioslaverc --group "Proxy Settings" --key "ProxyType" 1
kwriteconfig5 --file kioslaverc --group "Proxy Settings" --key "httpProxy" "http://127.0.0.1:10809"
kwriteconfig5 --file kioslaverc --group "Proxy Settings" --key "httpsProxy" "http://127.0.0.1:10809"
kwriteconfig5 --file kioslaverc --group "Proxy Settings" --key "NoProxyFor" "localhost,127.0.0.1,192.168.0.0/16"
dbus-send --type=signal --dest=org.kde.kded5 /kded org.kde.kded5.reloadConfiguration
```

And question:
Why GUI is not configured to execute dbus-send when config is changed?
