[gentoo-user] kde panel hiding behind something...
Hi again, and thanks for the kde help so far. This time, I created a new panel (I can't remember the type, something like a window dock panel?) which appears on the right of the screen, full length. I pressed the main panel hide button, and it slid behind this new blank panel. Now I can't get to the main panel, because it's hiding, and the blank panel can't be moved or deleted (by any means I can tell) There's no right-click menu on it, no dragging, it just sits there blankly... how can I get rid of it? many thanks, -- Iain Buchanan iain at netspace dot net dot au I loathe people who keep dogs.

Strange, but maybe it will respond to right-click after change of place... -- Jorge Almeida -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

All I can do is right-click run command, but I can't find a command for the control center... thanks, -- Iain Buchanan iain at netspace dot net dot au We all live in a state of ambitious poverty. -- Decimus Junius Juvenalis -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Others have already given the command, but you can also right-click the desktop, select Configure Desktop, go to Behaviour and set the left or middle mouse button to pop up the Application Menu when you click the desktop. Then you can run anything without the panel. -- Neil Bothwick This is a test of the emergency tagline stealing system. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Oh wait, I can get rid of it by right clicking on the main panel and selecting remove panel. So what's the dock application bar for anyway? It doesn't seem to do anything useful... thanks, -- Iain Buchanan iain at netspace dot net dot au You want it in one line?
