The video shows how to add another icon but it doesn't show how to delete an icon and its associated app.
I do not want Xterm icon on my desktop. Do I have to change the Xterm icon and then change the app. associated with it? How? The video shows an icon folder on the MMC, but, I don't know where to get that folder.

thanks for any guidance you might offer,

the developer is rewriting the configuration I believe. But for now, this is what I did:
  • First I used pencil and paper to write down what apps I wanted on a home page launcher
  • In the IDEA configuration I set it to the Total Icons to how many I wanted.
  • Also on the Icon Setting tab, I wrote the name of each app I wanted in the order I wanted them. Ignoring the icons shown and overwriting the existing labels
  • Then pressed Apply button
  • Then I went to the App Setting tab and pressed Refresh (this then showed my labels from the icon tab)
  • For each row, I double-tapped it and selected the application to match my label.
  • ALSO, this is where you check the "Use default icon" checkbox so that it uses the default icon for the app.

use labels, table settings and icon sizes to taste

Hopefully this helps.

There is no way currently to rearrange the icons or to delete one from the beginning or middle. If you want to make a change then you might have to go through all these steps again.

good luck.
