Pop-up-menu

[Schneidhuber, Bruno]

Hi,

stupid me! I copied the wrong line. I ment of course "~/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu".
But I copied your files in the right directories to see what happens.

And now I think I know what I couldn't make clear.

The items of your main-menu appear in the application-sub-menu of the pop-up-menu. (I hope the name of the sub-menu is application, I translated that from the German "Andwendung".)
But I have to change the whole pop-up-menu, not only a sub-menu. More accurate, I have to replace the whole pop-up-menu with the contents of the main-menu.


Thanks again for the answer

Not sure where you have the filename "xfce-desktop-menu.menu" from. In
the HowTo I mentioned the main menu is built from a file called
"xfce-applications.menu" so this is where you start. Just follow the HowTo.

I did it that way for myself after hesitating to upgrade Xfdesktop from
4.6 to 4.8 for a long time. After some fiddling I had exactly the menu I
wanted which included hiding default menu items and creating custom
categories to be sure no other application suddenly pops out in my submenus.

I’ve attached an excerpt of my ~/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu,
my ~/.local/share/desktop-directories/games.directory and one .desktop
file from that category. It should help you see the connection between
these files.


Regards, Mathias
