17 plasmaengineexplorer is a graphical tool allowing developers to test
18 Plasma data engines without writing a Plasma applet.
19
20 If no options are given, it will start without any data engine
21 selected. The required data engine can be selected from a drop-down
22 list.
23
24 Only installed data engines will be found. kbuildsycoca4 may need to
25 be run for newly-installed data engines to be found.
26
28 -v, --version
29 Displays version information.
30
31 -h, --help
32 Displays this help.
33
34 --list pixels
35 Displays a list of known engines and their descriptions.
36
37 --height
38 Sets the height of the window, in pixels.
39
40 --width pixels
41 Sets the width of the window, in pixels.
42
43 -x pixels
44 Sets the x (horizontal) co-ordinate of the top left corner of the
45 window, in pixels.
46
47 -y pixels
48 Sets the y (vertical) co-ordinate of the top left corner of the

50
51 --engine data engine
52 Start plasmaengineexplorer with the given data engine selected.
53 data engine is the internal name of the data engine given by the
54 X-KDE-PluginInfo-Name key of the desktop file.
55
56 --source data engine
57 Only valid in conjunction with --engine. Requests a specific source
58 from the data engine when plasmaengineexplorer is started.
59
60 --interval time
61 Sets the default update interval for requested sources to time
62 milliseconds. If not set, the source will update on demand (for
63 some sources, this will be when new data is available).
64
65 If --source is specified, this is the update interval that will be
66 used when requesting that source.
67
68 --app application
69 Only show engines associated with the parent application; maps to
70 the X-KDE-ParentApp entry in the DataEngine's .desktop file.
71
73 More detailed user documentation is available from help:/plasma-desktop
74 (either enter this URL into Konqueror, or run khelpcenter
75 help:/plasma-desktop).
76
78 Load the time data engine, showing the local time and updating every
79 second:
