Cinnamon                                           2019-02-10                               CINNAMON-SETTINGS(1)

cinnamon-settings runs the graphical user interface allowing to configure Cinnamon.

       It  can  also  be  used  to run the graphical user interface allowing to configure a specific module, add
       applets to a panel, and manage xlets.

       To open System Settings:
              $ cinnamon-settings

       To open the printer settings:
              $ cinnamon-settingsprinters

       To open the settings of an installed applet, desklet or extension:
              $ cinnamon-settings TYPE UUID
              Examples:
              $ cinnamon-settingsappletsSpicesUpdate@claudiux
              $ cinnamon-settingsdeskletsphotoframe@cinnamon.org
              $ cinnamon-settingsextensionswatermark@germanfr

       To add some applets on the second panel (if exists):
              $ cinnamon-settingsappletspanel2

       To open the download tab of the applets settings:
              $ cinnamon-settingsapplets--tab=download
              or
              $ cinnamon-settingsapplets-t1

       To open the download tab of a type of Spices (applets, desklets, extensions, themes), sorting them by
       'name', 'score', 'date', 'installed' or 'update', use the '--sort=' or '-s' argument:
              $ cinnamon-settingsTYPE--tab=download--sort=SORT
              or
              $ cinnamon-settingsTYPE-t1-sSORT
              where TYPE can be applets, desklets, extensions or themes
              and SORT can be name (or 0), score (or 1), date (or 2), installed (or 3), update (or 4)

              Example:
              $ cinnamon-settingsapplets-t1-sdate

       Specifying a module allows to configure it directly.
       The following modules are available. You can use name or synonym.
       The modules with * have a configuration interface with tabs. Each tab can be  directly  opened  (see  TAB
       section below).
       The  modules  with  **  need root rights to open their configuration interface. So the only tab that will
       always be open is the first one.

       The applets, desklets, extensions and themes are the xlets.

       Each xlet has an UUID (Universal Unique IDentifier). The structure of an UUID is xlet_name@author, except
       for themes.

       There are two kinds of xlets: System and Spices.

       System  xlets  are in /usr/share/cinnamon/applets/, /usr/share/cinnamon/desklets/ and /usr/share/themes/;
       their UUID ends with '@cinnamon.org' except for themes. There is no system extension.

       Spices are xlets offered by developers to the Cinnamon team, which evaluates and validates them. Complete
       description of these Spices can be found at https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/.
       The Spices installed by user are in ~/.local/share/cinnamon (for applets, desklets and extensions) and in
       ~/.themes.

       INSTANCE argument is reserved to developers. When an  applet  or  desklet  has  multiple  instances,  the
       configuration  interface  of  each  of  them can be directly opened by this INSTANCE argument. Users have
       neither the possibility nor the need to know the value of INSTANCE.
