Re: How do I make Tooltips work on the desktop? 20.04/LXQt
Hello ml9104. You can modify the name shown on your desktop icons in the /home/username/Desktop folder. Open you file manager, at the top, click tool, then open as root. Go to your Desktop folder and open it. That is all your desktop icon info. Rigt click on Featherpad and open with, well, Featherpad. You will see a spot with "Name=Featherpad'. You can change that to whatever you want, even 'write stuff' if that's what you want. To make it easy to associate 'Featherpad' with being a text editor, I would name it 'Featherpad text editor'. By doing it this way, if you add a desktop shortcut for another text editor, you'll know which is which. Make these changes in your /home/user file, not the / file, that will leave the default naming for any other users. Do not change any thing else in the file. Save the changes. I don't remember if the changes are effective right away or if you will need to ;log out and back in, but that should be a way to solve you issue.
I'm a firm believer that the only stupid question is the one you don't ask.
