How can I add items to Xfce root menu?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I'd like to add some items to my Xfce "root menu", see picture for location:



enter image description here



Searching the web gave a couple of possibilities (different XML files etc), but it appears that Xubuntu has customized it quite a bit. Maybe I just overlooked the settings? I also tried LXmenueditor, which does not access the root menus.



Where is the location of the configs for Xubuntu? Would it be possible to get stock-Xfce right click-on-desktop functionality without breaking anything? By that I mean: right click on desktop and have the Xfce menu instead of going through Xubuntu's submenu to access it.



Thanks for your time!

          versions 11.04 - 13.10



          enter image description here



          As the picture shows - "test" is a root menu which has been added.



          To do this will require a couple of folders to be created:



          mkdir -p ~/.config/menus
          mkdir -p ~/.local/share/applications


          Next copy the standard menu template file into the local menus folder



          cp /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu/menus/* ~/.config/menus


          Note - the stock XFCE menu could also be used - I prefer this menu so I've used it in my example:



          cp /etc/xdg/menus/* ~/.config/menus


          Now create our test menu - its in .desktop file-format



          leafpad ~/.local/share/applications/test.desktop


          copy and paste the following:



          [Desktop Entry]
          Version=1.0
          Type=Application
          Name=test
          Comment=
          Icon=acroread
          Exec=acroread
          Path=
          Terminal=false
          StartupNotify=false
          Categories=X-Xfce-Toplevel;


          The important bit is the last line - it must have X-Xfce-Toplevel as a category



          Edit our custom menu:



          leafpad ~/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu


          Add a new entry as shown:



          enter image description here



          Finally - lets use the custom menu file:



          Right click Start and choose properties:



          enter image description here



          Choose the custom menu option and navigate and select the custom menu file ~/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu



          enter image description here

          If you're using 4.10 or 4.12, then you can edit the Menu using alacarte (screenshot) or menulibre.



          enter image description here



          You may also have a more dynamic menu experience if you were using xfce4-whiskermenu.

          • Whiskermenu is good, but this topic was about the "root" menu / Desktop Menu

          • 1





            Sure. Doesn't alacarte help with that? And whiskermenu also uses the root menu, is it not?

            Mar 5 '14 at 15:38











          • Not sure why, but after some reinstall changes with alacarte did not apply to any menu.

            – marto
            Mar 5 '14 at 19:13











          • Which version of Xfce? It should work with >= 4.10, but NOT with 4.8.

            – landroni
            Mar 5 '14 at 20:50











          • 4.10. Alacarte shows options to edit/add menus, but does not apply changes. I must add that my system is pretty messy (transformed ubuntu install to xubuntu, added gnome-shell and i3 etc) - maybe something broke along the way

          Here is a way adding with Application UI:




          1. Right client Application button located in toolbar. The menu, client "Edit Applications"

          2. Then popup window shows all Application menus, you can navigate to groups and click the group, client "+" button on the window header.

            right click on destkop and have the XFCE menu instead of going thru
            Xubuntu's submenu to access it.




            From Settings Manager - Desktop - Menus tab - enable the show on right click there.



            Not sure about menu editing.

            If you're using 4.10 or 4.12, then you can edit the Menu using alacarte (screenshot) or menulibre.



            enter image description here



            You may also have a more dynamic menu experience if you were using xfce4-whiskermenu.

            • 4.10. Alacarte shows options to edit/add menus, but does not apply changes. I must add that my system is pretty messy (transformed ubuntu install to xubuntu, added gnome-shell and i3 etc) - maybe something broke along the way

            Here is a way adding with Application UI:




            1. Right client Application button located in toolbar. The menu, client "Edit Applications"

            2. Then popup window shows all Application menus, you can navigate to groups and click the group, client "+" button on the window header.
