From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030508 Description of problem: I made a launcher for an application, the after some time I upgraded the app, and the path changes. Then I wanted ti update the launcher, so I right clicked the icon and choose properties. I was hoping to find a tab to edit the path, but there isn't one. I had to open an xterm and manually edit the .desktop file, changing the old path to the new one. A beginner will never be able to do that. So please add a tab in the properties window so that even beginners can change path and other options. Thanks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a launcher for an app 2. change the path of the app 3. the launcher now is useless 4. i have to manually edit the .desktop file or re-create it !
