hi michel, > I need to customize my Gnome panel by adding a personal > drawer containing > launchers for in house developped softwares. > > I would like that this personal drawer contains items with > the look and > feel of the "Main menu" (a small icon followed by a text). do you just want to add some items to the "main menu" or do you want to create a new, a second "main menu", so to say? regarding the first point you can go to the following "special location" (is there some gnome-jargon for it?): applications-all-users:/// means you may enter "applications-all-users:///" in nautilus' location bar. creating program-associations there results in an altered main menu, which is visible to all users on-the-fly. if you can see this new association in the menu, but fellow users of the same machine can not, then you have to cd to /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications-all-users/ and set +rx for world to all files in there. regarding the second point, means creating a second "main menu", i have no idea how to do that. sorry to say, i have never seen something like this before. good luck, christian p.s. you may want to check the gnome 2.0 admin guide, chapter2, customizing menus: http://www.gnome.org/learn/admin-guide/latest/ch02s06.html _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
