These methods work for all panel elements, except Quick Launch / Starter elements. | | You can click the right mouse button on top of a panel element in order to move it. Alternatively, you can move panel elements by holding <code>CTRL+Left Mouse</code> and draging the element. These methods work for all panel elements, except Quick Launch / Starter elements with added icons. |
|
| |
|
| | Quick Launch / Starter elements have "Move Left" and "Move Right" as right click options, which do enable you to freely move it. Just click the "Remove from quicklaunch" in order to remove the icon from the Quick Launch Widget. |
|
| |
|
| | | Now, you can move the Quick Launch Widget like all other panel elements. After you have moved the Quick Launch Widget to the desired position on your panel, follow [https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=LXQt_Theming&action=edit#Create_Custom_Icon_on_Panel this tutorial] to add your icon again. |
| If you want to move Quick Launch / Starter elements on your panel, you need to manually edit a file. Open the following file in a text editor:
| |
| ~/.config/lxqt/panel.conf
| |
| Note that all folder names beginning with a dot are hidden folders. You need to make them visible by clicking View --> Show Hidden in your PcManFM-Qt File Browser. The <code>~</code> directory is your home folder.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Please note the order of whole paragraphs beginning with <code>[square brackets]</code>. Changing the order of whole paragraphs beginning with <code>[square brackets]</code> does '''not''' move items on your panel. All paragraphs are sorted alphabetically. Pay attention to the paragraphs with the title <code>[quicklaunch]</code>. This is the panel element, which contains multiple Quick Launch / Starter items.
| |
| | |
| The order of every Quick Launch / Starter item can be adjusted separately within the <code>[quicklaunch]</code>. Simply changing the order of whole paragraphs beginning with <code>[quicklaunch]</code> does '''not''' move Quick Launch / Starter items on your panel, you also need to rename them.
| |
| | |
| ===Example:===
| |
| You have the following Quick Launch / Starter items:
| |
| | |
| [quicklaunch2]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/pcmanfm-qt.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
|
| |
| [quicklaunch3]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/qterminal.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
|
| |
| [quicklaunch4]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
| | |
| and you want to have the Mozilla Firefox icon on the left (of all these 3 icons). Please edit the file to look like this:
| |
| | |
| [quicklaunch2]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
|
| |
| [quicklaunch3]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/pcmanfm-qt.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
|
| |
| [quicklaunch4]
| |
| alignment=Left
| |
| apps\1\desktop=/usr/share/applications/qterminal.desktop
| |
| apps\size=1
| |
| type=quicklaunch
| |
| | |
| Please restart your panel (see below) to see the changes. This method usually works, but not very precisely. Sometimes the order of Quick Launch / Starter icons is different than specified in the file. Deleting a Quick Launch / Starter item can help, but not always.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| If you want to move Quick Launch / Starter item to the far left or right of the panel, please edit the paragraph belonging to the Quick Launch / Starter item and use one of the following lines:
| |
| | |
| alignment=Left
| |
| alignment=Right
| |
| | |
| This Method works for all panel elements, but please keep in mind that all other panel elements, except Quick Launch / Starter elements can be moved by clicking the right mouse button on top of a panel element in order to move it.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| In order to see the changes logout and log in again. If you want to see the changes immediately run the following commands:
| |
| | |
| killall lxqt-panel
| |
| lxqt-panel
| |
| | |
| Sometimes, executing <code>lxqt-panel</code> is enough to reload the panel.
