Hi again Bruce, I had a look in Launchpad then restarted my system
and the problem went away!<br>
<br>
Thanks for helping.<br>

Hi Bruce,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the advice. <br>
<br>
I now remember how I did it last time, but now it does not work,
the link seems to drag across fine but the moment it is dropped on
the desktop it becomes damaged and I get this feedback: 'This
link cannot be used, because its target
"../../lib/libreoffice/share/xdg/writer.desktop" doesn't exist.'<br>
<br>
Any more ideas?<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Jan <br>

Thanks Bruce, removing the icon and re-launching the program
sorted the problem out.<br>

Pleased to hear that Jan. Unfortunately, it didn't work for
me. Doesn't matter how often I remove the button, and reload
the program, or change themes, etc. - still the same. I've
even tried tracking down the LibreOffice .desktop file and
editing that to point to a particular icon file - still no
joy.<br>
<br>
So if anyone out there has a flash of brilliance, please let
me know. It only does this with my LibreOffice launcher
button.<br>

Hi Jan,<br>
<br>
Glad you got it sorted out! :) To place a shortcut onto your
desktop, you won't be able to drag it from the launcher onto
your desktop, but you can drop an icon onto your desktop through
the unity dash.<br>

All the best, <br>
