E17: trashcan problems

[Andy Axnot]

On the desktop I cannot delete files to the Trash, nor can I drag and drop them.  Works OK in Dolphin.

According to http://code.google.com/p/e17mods/wiki/Trash  this was fixed:

Todo / Bugs

    * When placed on the desktop the drop doesn’t work

At least that's what I think the author meant by striking through that line.   


Nor do I see a right-click 'send to Trash' or similar.  'Delete' is delete, it's gone.

Am I missing something here?  (wouldn't be the first time     )

Also works fine in Dolphin.  Doesn't work fine on the desktop.  Doesn't work at all on the desktop.

Is it supposed to?

I use it on the shelf or as a gadget and it works fine.

Agust, do you always use it from within a file manager such as Thunar?

In KDE, Gnome, etc., you can drag a file on the desktop over to the Trash and drop it there.  Not so in E17?

The above web page says

...what to say... it’s just a trash, you can drag files from your favorite file manager into the trash and you can empy the trash with a right click.

maybe the E17 trash is only usable from within a file manager.   

Can someone confirm this?
