Re: How to refresh gnome-panel, other than using killall ?

I can not use killall, as running applets get killed and some fail to

If you're talking about your menus it's likely a distro bug.
gnome-menus uses gnome-vfs which uses gamin (or inotify?) to
automatically update when something changes. If this isn't happening
something is likely built wrong (or built with --disable-fam).

So I wanted to know if there is some gnome-api which I can call, to
refresh the panel or only the launcher also?


There is nothing you can do other than restarting the panel if the
autoupdate isn't work.
