From memory (only48K I'm afraid Shocked ) it's in the menu editor (right click the Lunch menu - a la carte of course)
Very Happy

Peter -- I couldn't find a way to change it from the Launch menu itself.

You may be able to do it by physically substituting other image files of the right size and shape. (The launch button is probably 2 files, corresponding to mouse over or not).

The files look like they are in:
/usr/share/apps/kicker/tiles/launch*.png

Let us know how you get on.

Peter

Launch-button (restricted access thread)…
…edit /etc/kde3/kickerrc, find the [KMenu] and change 'ShowText = true' to 'ShowText = false'.
