smoofanyone here please?09:48
lordievadersmoof: Just ask your question.09:49
smoofok well you know Im in ubuntu 14.04 right09:49
smoofi just reinstalled it lolo! for like the 10th time...09:49
smoofi was trying to arrange the icons. You know theres that semi transparent box on the desktop, if you put links in there you can arrange the icons, but if you put icons directly on the desktop you can't arrange them.09:50
smoofso i arrange my icons but i acccidentally make the transparent box go away... now all my wonky out of alignment icons are cluttering my desktop.09:50
smoofwhat is that box called and how to I get it back...? it usually / initially shows documents and stuff...09:51
smoof(and yes I am creating a perfect work environment which I will clone with filezilla, no more 10 x installing after my php bungles...09:51
smoofanyone know what the hell that semi transparent area is? coz if you right click on it you have the option to arrange icons, but directly in the desktop you don't.09:51
lordievadersmoof: You are probably talking about the folder widget.09:52
smoofah ok09:52
smooflet me see if that's what it is...09:52
smoofok so how do I get it back on there?09:53
lordievaderRight click desktop -> add widgets -> search for folder -> double click.09:54
smoofawesome got it!09:55
smoofhaha folder widget09:55
smoofomfg09:55
smoofthnx...09:55
smooflol09:55
smoofI will finally has the perrfect linux work environment :)09:55
smoofhow can I make the icons on there though be secured so if i accidentally kill it they dont disappear when i reactivate it? lock widget?09:55
lordievaderYes, lock the widgets.09:56
smoofwait lol09:58
smoofso the folder widget shows the dirs right, but it also shows a desktop folder and in the desktop, voila, is all my icons09:58
smoofbut i want them displayed , not hidden in that folder...09:58
lordievadersmoof: Reconfigure the widget.09:59
smoofhaha09:59
smooflol09:59
smoofeasier said than done10:00
smoofnow that previous folder widget is just an icon in another widget, hiding all my damn icons. How annoying10:01
smoofjust cut and pasted them :) thanks10:02
smoofso if I delete a folder on the desktop does that destroy the icon or the whole dir?10:02
smoofsigh ill have to check10:02
