The K Desktop Environment

Chapter 5. The panel

5.1. How do I add applications to the panel?

There are several ways to add an application to the panel:

Using the panel menu

Perhaps the easiest method is to use the entry "Panel | Add application" in the panel menu. (This is the menu that appears when pressing the K button on the panel). The menu shows all installed KDE applications. To add a button to the menu, simply click on the application.

Using the filemanager

You can also simply drag a kdelnk file from a window of the filemanager to the panel.
