   Long press an empty space inside your panel in edit mode. When the menu pops up, there should be a square icon in the middle, at the top, with a “+” inside. Select it, and the add menu should pop up. The first row will have the plain text option, and second row will have the dynamic text option. Hope this helps!

   Abdullah Alahdal oh, I’m sorry, I must have misread your post. I’ll look and see if I can find anything in my notes about creating a new item from script.

   A text item is a regular shortcut with icon hidden. Search in the container api for the exact function to create a shortcut, then in the propertySet/propertyEditor to hide the icon.

   
   

   
   

   But if you mean a dynamic text, I can be wrong but I think that’s not possible…

   As I’m a newbie I took some time to achieve adding a shortcut to the panel using a script. Any reference how to change/remove the icon.

   
   

   
   

   var e=LL.getEvent();

   
   

   var c=e.getContainer();

   
   

   var pnl = c.getItemByName(‘pnlTasks’).getContainer();

   
   

   var i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);

   
   

   var newitem = pnl.addShortcut(“Test”,i,0,0);

   I’ve tried removing the icon with setDefaultIcon(null) but it is not working.

   
   

   
   

   My current code:

   
   

   
   

   var e=LL.getEvent();

   
   

   var c=e.getContainer();

   
   

   var pnl = c.getItemByName(‘pnlTasks’).getContainer();

   
   

   
   

   var i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);

   
   

   
   

   var newitem = pnl.addShortcut(“Test”,i,0,0);

   
   

   
   

   var items = pnl.getItems();

   
   

   
   

   var noitems = items.length – 1;

   
   

   
   

   newitem.setName(“Task ” + noitems);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.setPosition(0, noitems);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.setDefaultIcon(null);

   I did it 😁, it was a good journey

   
   

   
   

   var name = prompt(“What is your name ?”, “your name here”);

   
   

   
   

   var e=LL.getEvent();

   
   

   var c=e.getContainer();

   
   

   var pnl = c.getItemByName(‘pnlTasks’).getContainer();

   
   

   
   

   var i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);

   
   

   
   

   var items = pnl.getItems().length;

   
   

   
   

   var newitem = pnl.addShortcut(name,i,0,0);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.setName(“Task ” + items);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.setPosition(0, items);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.getProperties().edit().setBoolean(“s.iconVisibility”, false).commit();

    With thanks to TrianguloY  This is my current code.

    
    

    
    

    Excuse me for coding as  newbie. Any advice is welcome.

    Abdullah Alahdal good, what exactly does the script? (I could guess from the code, but better that you tell us)

    TrianguloY  First I am using Tasker with SQLite command to read some information such as Tasks, Emails & Events. Then I run a script with data

    
    

    You may have a look into this short video https://plus.google.com/+AbdullahAlahdal/posts/c72drf26BQe which I shared couple of days ago. The overall look has been changed a little bit as I am improving the code whenever possible.
