The specific question is - where can I find what applications have been added to the panel, e.g. timeshift, evolution, chromium, etc.?
I have a script that takes a vanilla install and sets it up as I want. I'm modifying my LM20 script for LM21, I want to be able to check if an application has been added to the panel, if not, then add it.

Re: Cinnamon - where are panel setting held
What do mean: The list (and place) of the applets, that you added to any panel:
Easiest method with dconf-editor: org.cinnamon enabled-applets
Or do you need the settings for the applets (also desklets and extensions): ~/.cinnamon/configs

I was after the folder or config file containing a list of applications added to the panel, e.g. a list of .desktop files. If it is in dconf, then its a binary file

Re: [solved] Cinnamon - where are panel setting held
No just what applications have been added to the panel. Applets, etc. survive a clean install (home on a separate partition), but need to add the applications I want on the panel. I can grep the file to find out if something is there, and if not use sed to add it.
