a^j Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 This is very interesting. I just wonder weather this (the custom menus) is compatible with IconX or not.

spaceinvader Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Thank You ! This is excellent work. The nicest addition to my system since firefox :) very nice guide but isnt there somethin where u right click to rename your desktop icons and hold alt then on keypad press 0160 then letting go will have no text at all just your desktop icons 585475433[/snapback] Try both, and you'll see that his method is far superior. I never bothered with alt+0160 cause it doesn't look nice, and u miss functionality on icons like 'My Computers'.

Heby gound a way to remove ALSO this blank space.
