+
+<para>Here you can constomize window settings specifically only for
+some windows.</para>
+
+<note>
+<para>Please note that this configuration will not take effect if you
+do not use &kwin; as your window manager. If you do use a different
+window manager, please refer to its documentation for how to customize
+window behavior.</para>
+</note>
+
+<para>Many of the settings you can configure here are those you can
+configure on a global basis in the <guilabel>Window Behavior</guilabel>
+&kcontrol; module, however some of them are even more detailed.</para>
+
+<para>They encompass geometry, placement, whether a window should be
+kept above or below others, focus stealing prevention, and translucency
+settings.</para>
+
+<para>You can access this module in two ways: from the titlebar of the
+application you wish to configure, or from &kcontrol;. If you
+start it from within &kcontrol; you can use the
+<guibutton>New...</guibutton> to create a window profile, and the
+<guibutton>Detect</guibutton> button on the resulting dialog to
+partially fill in the required information for the application
+you wish to configure.</para>
+
+<para>You can also at any time <guibutton>Modify...</guibutton> or
+<guibutton>Delete</guibutton> any stored settings profile, and
+reorder the list. Reordering the list is a convenience to help you sort
+the profiles, and has no effect on how they are applied.</para>
