Creating shortcuts

Mon Mar 30, 2009 6:53 pm
Hello, I want to know, how is possible to create shortcut on application like in KDE 3x.

When I create shortcut with drag/drop from Dolphin then I cannot change anything (icon, properties..).

On my opinion this was in version 3.x very good, very userfull and I am very unhappy of theese problems, because I use a lot of special shortcuts of applications and this difficult way to create simple shortuct is problem for me.

Thank you

This is because the new Dolphin creates a symlink ( Soft Link ) to the Desktop file. When creating links to applications, please use "Copy Here" instead. You can use "Link Here" for files, etc. but not applications.
