KDE Visual Dictionary of terms
Table of Contents
This project was started to help unify the vocabulary used in KDE documentation.
We provide this for you here as an aid to learning your way around the KDE Graphical User Interface. These names have been standardized within KDE documentation, so that you will always find interface items referred to in the same way.
The term “Widget” refers to the basic building block of a computer program's interface.
Each widget operates in a similar manner each time it is used, but the effect that the widget has depends on its place within the program.
Currently, this guide consists of a table of the names of the graphical elements often found in KDE documentation, and an example of each one.
Our hope, eventually, is to make this a much more complete document, which will take you on a visual tour of KDE.
