-menu that appears, select <guimenu>Add Application to
-Panel</guimenu>.</para>
-<para>For more ways of adding buttons to the panel, refer to the

-</question>
-<answer>
-<para>The simplest way is to right-click on the panel, from the context menu
-select <guimenu>Configure Panel</guimenu>, from the icon list on the left side,

-<question>
-<para>After updating &tde;, my &kmenu; appears to be empty! How can I get my menu back?
-</para>
-</question>
-<answer>
-<para>
-User modifications to the &kmenu; are stored in
-<filename>$<envar>HOME</envar>/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu</filename>.
-Try moving this file out of the way and then issuing the
-command <userinput><command>tdebuildsycoca</command>
-<option>--noincremental</option></userinput>. This should restore you to the
-default system menus. If that is the case you'll have to recreate your customized menu.

-<question><para>My desktop panel has disappeared. How can I get it
-back?</para>
-</question>
-<answer>
-<para>The panel disappearing is usually due to a crash. This might be
-caused by loading an applet that has a fatal bug or a bad installation
-of &tde; and/or the panel.</para>
-<para>The easiest way to get the panel back is to launch the
-<guilabel>Run Command</guilabel> window by pressing <keycombo
-action="simul">&Alt;<keycap>F2</keycap></keycombo> and entering
-<userinput><command>kicker</command></userinput>, and then pressing the
-<guibutton>OK</guibutton> button.</para>
-<para>If the panel continues to disappear, you may wish to either
-remove or edit by hand your
-<filename>$<envar>TDEHOME</envar>/share/config/kickerrc</filename>
-file, where <filename
-class="directory">$<envar>TDEHOME</envar></filename> is usually
-<filename class="directory">~/.trinity</filename>. If you choose to edit
-by hand, start by removing the applet entry groups.</para>

-<para>Where did the Icon Zooming option that used to be in &kicker; go?
-</para></question>
-<answer><para>
-Icon zooming was not actively maintained and had caused severe bugs and usability issues. It was replaced in &tde; 3.4 by the new mouse over effects, which combine esthetics with useful information.

-<question><para>How can I start an application minimized to the system

-</question>
-<answer>
-<para>Use <command>ksystraycmd</command>. For example, to start a &konsole; hidden
-in the system tray, run <userinput><command>ksystraycmd </command>
-<option>--hidden</option> <command>konsole</command></userinput>. For
-more information about <command>ksystraycmd</command>, see the section

-<question><para>How do I use the &Windows; key to open the &kmenu;?</para>
-</question>
-<answer><para>Previous versions of &tde; provided a trick to allow you to
-use the &Windows; key both as a modifier (so you could have shortcuts
-like <keycombo action="simul"><keysym>Win</keysym><keycap>R</keycap>
-</keycombo>), and as a regular key (so that pressing
-<keysym>Win</keysym> on its own could open the &kmenu;). This feature
-was removed for reasons of usability and accessibility, as well as
-keeping the code clean. For current versions of &tde;, you have two
-options: either use a different shortcut to open the &kmenu; (the
-default is <keycombo action="simul">&Alt;<keycap>F1</keycap>
-</keycombo>), or remap the <keysym>Win</keysym> key to be a regular
-key, rather than a modifier.</para>
-
-<para>If you choose to do the second, here's one way:
-
-<orderedlist>
-<listitem><para>Find the keycode for your <keysym>Win</keysym> key
-using <command>xev</command>: Run the command
-<userinput><command>xev</command></userinput> in a &konsole;, and
-press the <keysym>Win</keysym> key. Look in the output of
-<command>xev</command> for
-<computeroutput>keycode <replaceable>n</replaceable></computeroutput>,
-where <replaceable>n</replaceable> is the keycode of the
-<keysym>Win</keysym> key.</para>
-</listitem>
-
-<listitem><para>Use <command>xmodmap</command> to remap the
-<keysym>Win</keysym> key. An appropriate command is <userinput><command>xmodmap
-<option>-e</option> 'keycode
-<replaceable>n</replaceable>=Menu'</command></userinput>.</para>
-</listitem>
-
-<listitem><para>In the &kcontrolcenter;, go to
-<menuchoice><guimenu>Regional &amp;
-Accessibility</guimenu><guimenuitem>Keyboard Shortcuts</guimenuitem>
-</menuchoice> and set the shortcut for <guilabel>Popup Launch
-Menu</guilabel> to the <keysym>Win</keysym> key. You should now be
-able to popup the &kmenu; by pressing the <keysym>Win</keysym> key.</para>
-</listitem>
-
-<listitem><para>One more step is required to save the changes across
-settings: Create a file <filename>~/.trinity/env/win-key.sh</filename>
-(create the directory if it doesn't exist), and add the
-<command>xmodmap</command> command you used previously to it. The
-change should now be applied every time you start &tde;.</para>
