Hi, I was wondering how can I add shortcuts to programs in the main taskbar, left of the 4 desktops icons. Not gadgets, shortcuts to programs.
The second problem, how can I remove menu entries for software that I removed? For instance, I opened the menu updater and ckecke the nano editor. After a while, I removed the nano editor but I still got the entry in the start menu, editors > nano editor. And this is not the only example.
The third problem, I installed 7zip-full, with the apt-get command from console, as root. In the package manager it displays to be installed, but no menu entry. How can I execute it?
Thanks! |

klick on kmenu, navigate to the app, rightclick, add to panel. position can be moved by clicking on the symbol all to the right , putting the mouse on the icon to move, a cross appears, drag it to its place, let go.
to remove icons, rightclick it...

I only have Add to Favorites if I right click on the app in Kmenu (start up button). So either I dont understand, either its not working. Thanks anyway, but I still need help. |

| Right-click the Cashew in the upper right corner of your screen, choose "Unlock Widgets", then do as devil said. When you are finished adding shortcuts to panel, lock widgets. |

Yeah, in needed to be unlocked first, in order to see the option. Thanks. Two more problems though:
- how can I remove menu entries for software that I removed? For instance, I opened the menu updater and ckecke the nano editor. After a while, I removed the nano editor but I still got the entry in the start menu, editors > nano editor. And this is not the only example.
- I installed 7zip-full, with the apt-get command from console, as root. In the package manager it displays to be installed, but no menu entry. How can I execute it?
care to help ? |

To remove an item, right-click the blue "K" button on the end of your panel, and choose "Menu Editor". Browse it to the menu group, then the item, highlight the item, click the red X "Delete" and say "good-bye".
To add an item, use the "Add Item" button. |

| I have installed 7zip but there is no graphical interface. If I write in a terminal, 7z it lists a command line list. But is there an interface for it ? |

Description: 7zr file archiver with high compression ratio
p7zip is the Unix port of 7-Zip, a file archiver that archives with
very high compression ratios.
.
p7zip provides:
- /usr/bin/7zr
a standalone minimal version of the 7-zip tool that only handles
7z archives. 7z compression is 30-50% better than ZIP compression.
- /usr/bin/p7zip
a gzip like wrapper around 7zr.
.
p7zip-full provides 7z and 7za which support more compression formats.
