[kde-doc-english] KDE 4.2.4 **System Tray** problem:

Dear KDE Docs Team:

This concerns the section titled “The Panel” in your document “The Plasma Handbook” (Sebastian Kügler, Revision 1.01.00 (2008-06-03)) that I got with my (updated Mandriva 2009.0 with) KDE 4.2.4..

Therein, you say merely the following about **System Tray**:

“Next on our default panel is the System Tray, which is used by traditional applications as a dock. Right clicking on the System Tray allows you to hide or show icons.”

And that is all. 

Nowhere else in the entire KDE (or Mandriva) documentation could one find any more information about the System Tray configuration!

Here is the problem:  

If one inadvertently removes this System Tray by a right-click selection of the mouse (or even inadvertently removes any one of the default items inside the System Tray), there is absolutely no explanation how to *restore* it to its original state. 

(Of course, the very-time-consuming reinstallation of the entire operating system could hardly be considered a solution.)

Thanking you in advance,

Yours truly,

Johan Dieckmann
