I was wondering where the files are located for Kde's panel launchers? I can't find anything online. I know where the regular desktop files are, (~/.local/share/applications/), but I can't find the launcher files. I currently have a launcher that is not working correctly. When I create the new icon in Kmenuedit, it works fine from within Kde's menu/kickoff. But when i pin that icon to the panel, it doesn't. It is a launcher for IntelliJ IDEA. When I hover over the icon on the panel, all it says is java. I checked the .desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications/, and that one is fine.
Any advice would be appreciated.

It is in the text file
~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc.You want to find this section:
[Containments][n][Applets][m][Configuration][Launchers], wherenandmare some numbers you need to find out on your system. There should only be oneLauncherssection for each task manager you have.If it isn't there, you should look through
[Containments][n][Applets][m]for one containing the application you are looking for.
