Re: how to invoke deskbar in gnome 2.14

I can't find the deskbar applet from the "Add to
Panel". but I just install fedora 5.

Can you please tell me how to fix that?

I have installed fedora 5 with gnome 2.14.
How can I invoke the deskbar in gnome 2.14?
I tried "Alt -f3", but nothing happens.

Sorry, don't follow. "Deskbar"? I know of
<Alt-F1> to get the main menu,
and <Alt-F2> for 'Run'. <Alt-F3> is a new one on
me. Do you mean <Alt-Tab>?
Or maybe <Ctrl-Alt-Tab> [to get to the panel]
then <tab> to the windowlist
applet?


The deskbar is a new panel applet that was
introduced in GNOME 2.14.
For more details on what it is, have a look at the
release notes:

http://www.gnome.org/start/2.14/notes/en/rnusers.html
(about 1/3rd of the way down the page)

To invoke the deskbar, you have to have the applet
on a panel. You can
put it on a panel by right-clicking on the panel and
selecting "add to
panel..." and choosing it from the list of applets.
This will put a
text entry on the panel.

To invoke the deskbar, either click on the text
entry and start typing
or (from anywhere on the desktop) use the keys "alt
- F3", which will
focus the deskbar entry where you can start typing.

Hope this helps
Don
