No, not the gnome-menus. I'm concerned with the launchers on the gnome-panel. What I've observed is, if a desktop shortcut, which is again a .desktop file is modified, it automatically gets updated. But when a launcher .desktop file, located in ~/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers/ is changed, it doesn't get reflected on the panel. So, does that mean I have to do killall gnome-panel? 'n is there any way to refresh the panel, without applets getting killed? thanks, Puthali >>> "Travis Watkins" <alleykat@xxxxxxxxx> 8/3/2006 6:14 PM >>> On 8/3/06, Puthali H.B <bputtali@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > The problem I'm facing is, I change some fields in the .desktop file > corresponding to a launcher, but it doesn't get reflected on the panel. > I can not use killall, as running applets get killed and some fail to > come up afterwards. > If you're talking about your menus it's likely a distro bug. gnome-menus uses gnome-vfs which uses gamin (or inotify?) to automatically update when something changes.
