Description Jay LaCroix 2009-07-16 04:45:26 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.96)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I use kmenuedit regularly because I have a certain way I like things set up. Kmenuedit in KDE 4.3 has issues with moving and renaming icons.

Today, I downloaded and installed Swiftfox. An icon for it was created in Applications > Internet > Web > Swiftfox. I renamed the icon to remove the description, and then I moved the icon to simply Applications > Internet. I saved my changes and exited. The Swiftfox icon vanished and now cannot be seen in either place. It was completely deleted when I moved it.

This happens quite frequently when I move icons. When I set up a new KDE 4.3 installation, about half of the icons I move I need to recreate manually because they vanish, or sometimes they show up in kmenuedit but not the actual kmenu.
