Ungrouping items in the KDE panel

By default, in SuSE Linux 7.3 similar items will be grouped together in the panel. For example, if you have 3 Konsole sessions open, only one icon will be displayed in the panel:
Panel with Konsole sessions grouped
Menu of grouped items Clicking on the Konsole icon will bring up a menu letting you choose which Konsole session you want.
Menu with Prefs Sometimes users would rather let each item have its own icon, rather than having them appear in a menu. In order to do this, right-click an empty space on the panel and choose Preferences...
In the "Settings" window that appears, click on "Taskbar", then uncheck "Group similar tasks", and finally click on "OK".

Now the items will be ungrouped and have their own icons:
