Hi, Menu editing is currently possible but disabled in Fedora Core 2. It will take a patch to enable it (basically changing a #define from 0 to 1), but there are still some problems and quirks with it. It doesn't crash, but some results are unexpected (ie delete something, it pops back in an odd place sometimes). I needed to focus on actually getting the implementation in working order before I could think about tackling the editing cleanup. We currently need a FAM replacement before going further with menu-editing as well. Furthermore, its not clear that right-clicking on the menus to delete stuff is the best way to go about it... There are at least two options, (1) in-menu editing via contextual menus, and (2) a menu editing application a la KDE. There really hasn't been any discussion/ conclusion about which is the best path to take. FWIW, the menu-editing stuff is currently specific to Fedora, though it will migrate upstream soon. Its pulled from a heavily patched version of freedesktop.org's desktop-file-utils VFS backend. Dan On Mon, 2004-04-05 at 13:10 -0400, Pyroman[FO] wrote:

I certainly expect both #1 and #2 in a full featured desktop operating system. #1 is because users now have the expectation of being able to manipulate objects immediately by right-clicking and using the context menu options. #2 is for cases where more fine-grained control of multiple objects is needed, and can not be done easily and intuitively within the context of #1's user interface.
