Description Tim Wooten 2007-08-28 21:15:04 UTC 
Version:           KDE Menu Editor 0.7 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
OS:                Linux

I make changes to the kde menu with "KDE Menu Editor 0.7" but the changes do not take effect. I'm trying to remove a menu item but it will not go away, even after a reboot.

Thank you

Check that ~/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu is getting written - that's where menu changes are stored

Hi Philip,

Thanks for your response. I'm running PCLinuxOS 2007 and everything else 
seems to be working really well. I have searched (find / -name 
kmenuedit) as root for the file you mentioned but it doesn't seem to 
exist on my system. What I did find was '/usr/share/apps/kmenuedit'. The 
contents of that file follows.

<!DOCTYPE kpartgui SYSTEM "kpartgui.dtd">
<kpartgui name="kmenuedit" version="6">

<MenuBar>

<Menu name="file" noMerge="1"><text>&amp;File</text>
 <Action name="newitem"/>
 <Action name="newsubmenu" />
 <Action name="newsep" />
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="file_save"/>
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="file_quit"/>
</Menu>

<Menu name="edit" noMerge="1"><text>&amp;Edit</text>
 <Action name="edit_cut"/>
 <Action name="edit_copy"/>
 <Action name="edit_paste"/>
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="delete"/>
</Menu>

<Menu name="settings">
 <Action name="show_removed"/>
 <Action name="show_hidden"/>
</Menu>
</MenuBar>

<ToolBar name="mainToolBar" noMerge="1" fullWidth="true"><text>Main 
Toolbar</text>
 <Action name="file_save"/>
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="newitem"/>
 <Action name="newsubmenu"/>
 <Action name="newsep" />
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="edit_cut"/>
 <Action name="edit_copy"/>
 <Action name="edit_paste"/>
 <Separator/>
 <Action name="delete"/>
</ToolBar>

</kpartgui>

With kmenuedit I can move items around and they will save but there are 
some items I am trying to delete. No matter what I do I can't seem to 
get rid of those items.

Thanks for your help,

Tim Wooten
