Right click desktop>add widgets and grab yourself a trashcan
RE: How add icon trash to desktop? - wonder - 17th October 2016
Yes, in desktop (if I have configured desktop for desktop environment, not for folder view) I can this, and this is like I have my trash icon.
But I want add in my desktop folder.
In my desktop, I have a a widget for folder view, and for this reason I want add to folder desktop.
In my laptop, I can add this, but now, I don't remember how made this (I don't remember if with a copy of shorcut or....I don't remember....)
Regards!

Open Dolphin / desktop / drag trashcan into folder from left hand pane.
right click on it /properties /press whatever icon is upper left/ applications will be on a drop down menu on upper right. Change to places and find a trashcan icon.
You know you can always drop a trashcan widget into your panel ! That way you can run your cursor over it and it will tell you how many items are in the bin.
