redhat 7.2 icons on desktop

Hello all,

Is there a way to change the behavior of the gnome desktop manager so that when your iconify a window it will be place on the desktop intead on on the task manager (gnome-panel)? It gets confusing having to loook throught the gnome-panle for the window I want when you have alot of windows up. I know that I can drag the windows I want on the desktop. That is OK but the window if fixed, meaning if I log out and then log in again the icons will be there even though I may not be using them. I guess I wanted to know if when I iconfiy a window it would behavior like CDE on solaris?

Can there be alt-texts to icons?

Can you add hover texts (alt-texts) to icons? It is not always obvious what each of them mean just by looking at them. Sometimes it is clear from the url it points to, but for accessibility reasons alone it would be good to have alt-texts as a standard. (1 Reply)
