Thanks for your help, I've successfully customized kicker, kickoff and
kickerdash with look-n-feel packages.  Also customized the desktop
successfully.

Now I'm stuck at a few more questions, which I've googled but couldn't
find the answers:
 1. In the
look-and-feel/org.kde.ezgo.desktop/contents/layouts/org.kde.plasma.desktop-layout.js
the contents include:

var plasma = getApiVersion(1);
var layout = {
     "desktops": [
         { "applets" : [ ], "config" : [ ... ] }
     ]
     "panels": [
         {  "applets" : [...], "config": { ... } ... }
     ]
}

    where do "desktops" and "panels" define?  or are they just keywords
for org.kde.plasma.desktop?  I searched shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop
but got nothing.  By customizing this file I've successfully done what I
want.  I just don't quite understand the syntax in this file, and in the
"layout".

 2. Now I want to modify the contents of the defaultPanel (without
changing the
layout-templates/org.kde.plasma.desktop.defaultPanel/contents/layout.js),
adding some widgets before the task manager.  I tried several ways:
   -
look-and-feel/org.kde.ezgo.desktop/contents/layouts/org.kde.plasma.desktop.defaultPanel-layout.js
   - plasmoidsetupscripts/org.kde.panel.js

   without success.  In the org.kde.panel.js I just added something like

applet.addWidget("org.kde.plasma.showActivityManager")
applet.reloadConfig()

   When I tried to add a default panel it still showed "default" --
without activity manager widget on it.  It seems like not to create a
org.kde.panel plasmoid (which should run the setup scripts).

   And in the defaultPanel-layout.js I used the same way as above but no
luck too.  I wonder if the syntax in defaultPanel-layout.js should be
like desktop-layout.js, but I don't know if there is any keywords or
syntax for defaultPanel.

   Any help is very appreciated.

Thanks,
Franklin
