KDE newbie, need your advices and tips

Hello people!

I just rtied KDE 3.2.2 and I think it's much more better than the 3.1 series. Anyways, I am stuck with these ones. Hope you can help me out...

- How can I have 2 keyboard layouts available while NOT having layout switcher displayed in notification area? Also, where are these flags stored? I'd like to change them.

- How to assign keyboard shortcuts like "Shift + Alt" ? They are not accepted whatever I try :(

- I've seen some screenshots with MacOS like bar at the top, but also with launchers, time, workspace switcher and notification area on the right side. I cannot reproduce that :(

- Please go to everaldo.com and click on the Crystal preview image. A popup window appears with konqueror image in it. Does anyone know how did they reproduce that cool rounded selection (ala Gnome) and that cool side bar seperator? I hope it is not a Photoshop trick.

- Do we have something like Gnome's emblems for icons? I find them extremly useful.

Thanks again

Right-click the K button, Panel Menu/Add/Panel/Child Panel, then add the Menu applet to this new child Panel and configure the desktop to use the application menu as menu bar.
