Add a menu item to KDE Launcher
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I've installed Eclipse Framework not as binary package (tar.gz), user have to only extract to desired directory and start off. I added eclipse destination path to global PATH variable and I'm able to start eclipse from command-line without specifying all the path. But I also want eclipse to appear on Kickoff Application Launcher. And be able to start it from quick start (Alt-F2). What steps should I follow?
I'm using KDE 4.9.4 on Kubuntu 12.04
Thank you!

- Right click on Kickoff.
- Edit applications...
- Mark the folder you want it in, e.g. Development. Click on New.
- Fill in the name you want.
- Add the actual command and click on the square next to name to change the icon. There is an icon in the eclipse directory.
- Click Save.

I would like to choose the icon displayed, for example, some things run a java command, or a wine command. I would like to download and use the original logo, however, when I hit "browse" in the icon selection area nothing happens

@csga5000 I think you have to edit you menu item manually. All those items you add via GUI are added to~/.local/share/applicationsfolder as.desktopfiles. They are basically shortcuts that are indexed by your menu start applet. Find the correspondent file, open it and add there a lineIcon=/path/to/your/desired/iconand here you are.
