Address bar?
« on: October 22, 2012, 06:06:14 PM »
Ya know how windows has an address bar that can be toggled on within the toolbar? You then type in a search term, etc.a when you hit enter, a web browser launches and your results are displayed on a search engine page.

Do we have something like that?  I checked widgets but didn't see anything.

Just curious if I could put an address bar in a tool panel.

It might not be what you're looking for bu if you are using KDE, try this.

Press Alt+F2 and on the Run Command type, http://pclinuxos.com/forum ... your browser (I'm using chromium-browser) should open a tab of our support forum.

Excellent!  Close enough.:)  Any way to put that on the desktop or have it permanently displayed in a panel?
