[opensuse-factory] Adding an icon in 4.1
Is there a way to add an application icon to the task bar in 11.1 with KDE 4.1? I've tried everything I can think of and it's a "no go." Also, even though the taskbar does hide, it doesn't work properly...often staying up till you "touch" it with the cursor. Also, how does one reduce the size of icons on the desktop?! Thanks, Fred -- "Politicians and diapers need to be changed regularly -- and for the same reason." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Hehehehehe.....no. ;) I'm really being fair and trying to like the new KDE, but "it ain't easy!"

This is not really relevant here I think, you should join the -kde mailinglist. Here's how to do it.. dunno if it's very complex, you tell me. 1) Unlock widgets (right click on panel/desktop -> unlock widgets) 2) Open kickoff (the default menu) -> right click on the item you want -> add to panel You can also drag from kickoff to the panel, but it can be a little tricky finding the right pixel to drop on. If you're using the classic menu, only drag and drop is possible - no right click -> add to panel option in that one.
Also, how does one reduce the size of icons on the desktop?!
What desktop icons? The icons in folderview? Right click folderview applet -> folderview settings -> display If you've added application icons to the desktop you can resize them the same as any other widget - unlock widgets -> pull on the handle. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
