Re: [libreoffice-users] all program icons on desktop by mistake

Hi :)
It should be possible to view the desktop as 'just another folder'.  In Ubuntu 
just the "Places" menu.  In Windows open your "My Docs" or "My Documents" folder 
and then in the icons at the top of that file-browser go up 1 level.  The 
"Desktop" folder often has a different icon from the other folders but works the 
same way.
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
