Hi All,
Is it possible to show/hide icons on desktop
programmatically? I would like to be able to run a
script at boot that, according to some conditions,
will allow some custom applications to run, while
hiding the others. The script exists and performs all
kind of other things before launching X.
Icons on the desktop are just .desktop files in the user's KDE desktop
directory.
kde-config --userpath desktop
Default is $HOME/Desktop
and their position on the desktop is determined by the file:
$HOME/.kde/share/apps/kdesktop/IconPositions
I suggest that if you have various fixed arrangements that you have a
set of: "IconPostions.x" files and copy the one that you want to:
"IconPostions" before "kdesktop" is started.
