Subject: One Bazillion Dollars to Whoever Figures
This Out
Asked this on the Quadlist to no response, so
let's try it here.
Technically it's on a Quad630, but it's more about
System 7.5.5, so let's
just imagine I'm working with an LCIII. ;^)
I installed Kanjitalk (Japanese localized OS)
7.5.3 with the
7.5.5 update, put in a bunch of games, apps and
stuff and threw all my
aliases in the Launcher Items folder.
But I didn't want a huge jumble in one window, so
I made four
folders for the different groups, and put the
option-8 dot in front of
each folder's name. ...This isn't the first time
I've used the Launcher,
so I'm pretty sure I knew what I was doing... And
I called up the
Launcher's window.
One group, four buttons with folder icons on them.
Each button
with the corresponding names under them, with the
dot. Tried taking out
the *Apps folder I made (Imagine the * is the dot)
since the Launcher
usually puts any aliases not in a group folder in
one named
Applications. Pretty much the same result.
Buttons for all the
aliases, and three buttons with the remaining
folders.
If the above sounds somehwat confusing, I put up a
screen shot at:

The window in the back is the Launcher Items
folder, In the
foreground is the Launcher window.
What went wrong? Given the general lack of
settings involved with
the Launcher, I'm rather stumped.
If the problem is getting the folder to go away,
remove its alias from
the launcher. As I read you above, it seems you want
the folder out of the launcher?
Jeff
I think he's wanting to put subfolders in the Launcher
but it displays all the aliases in one window as if
they're not in folders.
