SOLVED How do you change icons?
« on: April 23, 2010, 10:36:16 AM »
When you have the new KDE-2010 how do you change the individual application icons?

I wanted to use Archie's Neon ones for some of the applications.

The right click does not bring up a box to allow you to do that like the
older version did.

Is there some program I missed in synaptic after my update that I need?

You can right-click the application launcher button, choose "Menu Editor" and change the icons from in there.

Maybe I should have been more specific.

that or edit a icon theme and add/remove icons you need, some packages will explain you how to do it

you will find many packages on kde-look.org
