Description ThomasvonderElbe 2013-02-07 11:23:19 UTC
I would like to have the possiblity to remove these entries from the service-menu:

- Open in new window
- Open in new tab
- Add to places

Because these actions are already much easier to perform with middle-click, drag-and-drop, ... . So from my perspective they are useless and just clutter the menu.

Easiest would maybe be, to add them to the list of services: settings -> configure Dolphin -> services. Or to give them a .desktop file, which can be edited then. 

Reproducible: Always

I agree for "open in new tab" and "add to places" but how do you open a folder in a new dolphin window without the context menu?

But yes, I think it is a good idea to add these entries to the configurable services.

Thanks for the idea. I see that this might make sense for some users, but considering that this would require some non-trivial code changes and that there has not been much demand for this feature so far, I'm not sure if it should be implemented (provided that anyone volunteers to do it).
Comment 3 David Chmelik 2020-11-09 00:44:10 UTC
I wish it could be added.  I went through the entire extra add-on services (even if there are 1000+, taking one-half to one hour... I read fast) and installed a bunch.  Some ended up in Spanish, but I don't read that, and others are broken or break (permanently hide) the system ones!  There needs to be better quality/version control here for the add-on ones also...

Actually I don't want the option to remove system ones from the configuration list, but only add-on ones.  Any/all should be allowed to be removed from the user menu (after configuration.)

There's an open merge request that would implement this feature: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/103
