However, I cannot find a way to add icons to the Kicker panel. The icon might be to launch an application like Firefox or Thunderbird. Also, I cannot move icons already on the panel. I can delete them, but that's it. There's no "add application icon" context menu pick as described in the help documents. I've used KDE 3 for years, and all this stuff is second nature, but maybe KDE4 has changed the mechanism and I can't find it. Trying to drag icons to move them also doesn't work. I've tried the lock/unlock widgets menu pick, but it makes no difference.
There's no kicker in kde4, just a plasma panel.
To add app shortcuts either drag from the menu or right click a menu entry -> add to panel. Widgets must be unlocked first.
To move widgets in the panel, unlock widgets -> click on the cashew in the right side of the panel to open the panel configuration dialog.
Hi Martin, and thanks for replying :-) The approach of dragging from the "K" menu works, but limits you to stuff which is already in that menu. In my case, I want to add a completely new application from an arbitrary location, like /opt/..... I can't do that like I could in KDE 3. The move thing doesn't work at all - I've tried it several times and no luck. The panel shows as unlocked (the menu says "lock widgets), but dragging doesn't work. Just to be sure, I tried it with the menu saying "unlock widgets" but no change. What am I doing wrong?
