taskbar icons

Hi there.

First, I'm sorry because I'm French, so I know, my english sucks...

I want to know if it's possible to have only the logo of all applications in the kde taskbar.
For example, when I browse web whith Konqueror, I don't want to view a dynamic icon whith the URL i'm browsing.
I want only the Konqueror icon, & same for all applications in the taskbar.

I'm running kde3.5 on debian lenny (testing)

Thanks.
Big up for the BIG work from developpers :)

The taskbar takes the icon from the same source as the window title bar.
You can manipulate that icon by starting kde applications with the argument --icon image.png or -miniicon /path/to/image.png
Dunno if konqueor stops using the favicon icon of a webpage if you use this command.

you can put the argument in kmenu with kmenuedit.

RE: taskbar icons

I believe it's possible to display the icons for running applications in the Kicker with the icon, the text, or both. I'm at work, though, so I don't have access to my machine to tell you exactly how to do it, but I'm pretty sure it's in the Kicker properties sheet.

And if you can say 'you're English sucks', your English doesn't suck ;)
In retrospect, everything is funny.

Nope, I'm afraid I was wrong. The only thing you can do that to is the KMenu. The Kicker has to have the text. You can, however, turn off the icons. But the text is there to stay, I'm afraid.
