K-menu in Mandrake 9.2

Mikessu · 10-16-2003, 12:34 PM

How can I set K-menu to look like same like in Mandrake 9.2 (like in KDE default). I can see it has been tried to make lighter but I liked the default looking menu the best. Where can I modify that menu to it's original state?

I'm not sure if this is what you mean but... Type "menudrake" in term, click on "menu style" in the toolbar and select the type you want. Don't forget to save your changes

That wasn't actually what I meant. Because my English is not so good that I can tell what I mean, I'll explain with pictures:

This is what K-menu looks now:

This is what it should look:

See that Kde-logo and document history on the top and run-command. Where can I add those to my menu?

In 9.2 there is no more Run command and the history section on the top is configurable. You can set how many entries you want or not have any entries at all. I think right-click on the K-button will bring up options (I don't use KDE)

How about that logo?

Shot in the dark here, maybe it's part of a style? Try a few other styles/themes/widgets and see what pops up

I tried but no effect, still logo is missing.

right click an empty spot on your kicker, click "Configure Panel" then It should be on "layout" (the icons on the left side. click the "Menus" tab at the top far right. In there you have the options to put the side picture back and also the run command. It also has the option to show "most recently used" or most frequently used" but is not working for me in 9.2 rc2.

edit: doh! I had the number or most recently set to zero. It does work after all. now looks the way you want.

Ok, now it works.
