I could have sworn one used to be able to disable the icon in the applet. I no longer see the option. Was this option removed at some point?

Exactly what I am looking for... thinking to run kwin without any borders or window decoration. this is the applet I needed to complete the transition

Actually, I found there is some competition for this use case. Maybe "Active Window Control" is better suited for me.

Excellent applet!

Is there anyway to get rid of the "Default" title when no applications are open? I've tried to replace it with an empty string via the regex settings, but haven't had much luck so far.

EDIT: Scratch that... I just realized that it pulls that from the plasma activity settings.

"Default" is just the Activity name, change your current activity name to what ever you want,

or from applet settings->Behavior->Hide activity information to remove it totally

9 + Thanks.

Is it possible to get 'Title' to act as 'hide activity information', that is not to display, if you're displaying application title and window title in different widgets and they both have the same text?

For example, I can start Lollypop and both application name (from Window Active Control) and title name (from Window Title Applet) show Lollypop until I start playing a song whereas Title shifts to the artist. I would prefer title to not display until a song is played so it doesn't duplicate.

Thank you. Great applet for active window replacement with standart global menu MIssing some configuration like choosing fonts or icon when there is no one, but still good replacement.
