Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: No QuickStarter? (Linux)

Hi :)
I really do not know anything about KDE at all.  There were some earlier posts about KDE3 but not 
about KDE4.  Hopefully someone else might have ideas
Apols and regards from
Tom :)

Is it possible to add a customizable menu to the panel in KDE 4?  In KDE 3, at least you could 
create a section in the main menu and then copy that section to the panel.  All I can find in KDE 4 
is the menu launcher, which simply duplicates the one that's at the left end of the panel.
