Application shortcuts in a new panel/shelf/ibar [SOLVED] May 23, 2022 2:44:08 GMT

Hi,

Just installed the legacy 32bit version (5.1.0 with all the default settings) on an old laptop, to setup for the grandies.

I would like to be able to setup a shelf/ibar/panel/popout, with a bunch of shortcuts to kids applications that I have installed. Can't seem to create a new instance of the ibar/shelf, that I can edit without stuffing the existing ones, which already have 'other' apps on them..

Currently have copied shortcuts (Desktop files) to the desktop, but a panel option would be neater, and maybe easier for young kids...?

Thanks, John

Hello and welcome

Yes, it is possible. Add a new iBar gadget on your shelf. Click right mouse button on the new iBar and go to the settings. In settings add new source (see my example with "Games"). Apply. Now you can change the content independently...
