Chapter 5. Configuring Kontact

Kontact Configuration Window

When selecting the Configure Kontact action from the Settings menu, the Kontact configuration dialog is shown. It provides a list of the configurations for all the active components of Kontact. You can click the - symbol next to the component names to collapse their options so that you can view the options for the component you are looking for. Selecting one of the configuration options under a heading will bring up that configuration section on the right.

In addition, by clicking on the Configure... button, you can bring up a dialog that will allow you to select which components you want active from a list. By checking the box next to the component title you select the component to be put into the side bar and the summary view. The component is loaded and its main view is shown in the main window when clicking on its icon in the side pane for the first time. By unchecking the check box the component is removed from the side pane and summary view. Changes become effective by clicking the Apply or OK button.
