Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE DESKTOP 11 - GNOME 17-03-2009, Руководство пользователя, Страница: 18 / 138

Figure 1.1 GNOME Desktop
By default, the desktop features two key icons: your personal Home folder and a trash
can for deleted items. Other icons may also be present on the desktop, such as icons
representing devices on your computer. If you double-click your Home folder, the
Nautilus file manager starts and displays the contents of your home directory (where
your personal files and configurations are stored). For more information about using
Nautilus, see
Section 2.2, “Managing Folders and Files with Nautilus” (page 19).
Right-clicking an icon displays a menu that offers file operations such as copying,
cutting or renaming. Selecting Properties from the menu displays a configuration dialog.
On the Basic tab, you can change the name of the icon as well as the icon itself (by
clicking on it and selecting a file with a different one). Various information about the
object represented by the icon is also shown here. The Emblems tab lets you add up to
four graphically descriptive symbols to the icon. The Permissions tab lets you set access
permissions for the selected files. The Notes tab lets you manage comments. The menu
for the trash can also features the Empty Trash option, which deletes its contents.
