Command to launch panel config gui

[RichJack]

I know you can Ctrl and right-click the panel to open the config GUI (would a simple right-click make more sense?) Anyway, I wanted to be able to create a .desktop file and a menu entry to launch the config dialog. If I set the command as fbpanel -C I get another new panel on top of the existing one as well as the config GUI.

What is the correct command to open the config GUI for an already running panel? At the moment, I am having to resort to: killall fbpanel && fbpanel -C

Hi Currently there is no way to control running panel.

As a short and simple solution I can suggest to open config dialog upon USR2 s\gnal, so desktop entry will run killall -USR2 fbpanel. As a proper solution it should be some kind of socket or named pipe that accept a number of commands

what about a menu entry with that command signal! fbpanel are a KISS software.. please keep KISS
