Launcher customization


Hello,

I am on Manjaro XFCE. I am wondering if there is a way to make the launcher show all of the icons, as it would in windows, instead of stacking. I do not like having to click the arrow to show the rest of them.

Thanks.

You can Right click on a blank spot on the Panel and choose Panel/Add New Item. At that point, you choose to add a "New Launcher". Once you do that, modify/edit the launcher with the executable of the app you want and an icon to represent it. You can add as many launchers as will fit on your Panel... one for each of the apps you want there.

It looks like this: https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/add-new-items

Luck!
