I currently have it so that a left click on the desktop pulls up the "standard menu" and a right click pulls up "application launcher".

What I'd like to do is trim down to the application launcher to a few commonly used "favorites" if you will. Does anyone know how that launcher menu is populated and how I can go about editing it? Are they independent of each other or will it display the same applications as the kicker menu?

Thanks!

Try this one:

http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Fa ... ent=117639

It shows whatever you've marked as favorites in the kicker-menu.

Thanks, that looks close. I'm guessing there is no way to customize the application launcher menu apart from the kicker menu is there? They both propagate from the same source?

No way that I know of I'm afraid.
