It sounds like you're making a new launcher from scratch. Instead, drag copy the one from the K menu to the desktop or your panel, etc. On a personal note, putting app launchers on the desktop is a holdover from Windows and is very inefficient--you can't even see them unless you minimize everything; not to mention that it obscures your wallpaper. I recommend you put them on a panel, and also turn on the "recently used apps" feature on the K menu, and set it to 3-5. Hotkeys are also handy, and easy to use in KDE. Hope this helps. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
