Description Michael Stather 2005-12-01 17:09:18 UTC

Currently there are links to the control center as well as to "search files" in the K-Menu of KDE (when installed).Since kicker provides submenus (available by "configure kicker") for "settings" (which also cover the control center and YaST2 modules) as well as "search" (covering local and web search) I suggest to remove the links and use the submenus. This looks much more consistent and provides more functionality.

We decided to go with "Recent Documents" and "System Menu" as submenus with 10.1, hence the "links" will stay.

Comment 2 Michael Stather 2006-01-16 18:01:13 UTC

I didn´t mean to remove the "links" submenu which is very useful. Is the link to the KDE control center also directly in "system" (as the YaST2 link is). Since these are the two most important places they should be together.
And you haven´t said anything about the "search" submenu. IMHO having a submenu with two options for local and web search is much better than a direct link to local search in the k-menu.

Sorry for reopening if it´s not appropriate but I think you misunderstood me here.

no, we like the way it is. web search is done in web browsers and that one opens with one click. your suggestion would require 3 clicks to go to google. and beside that, we discussed it and we came up with the current layout.
