this works on 0.9.11 by going into a docks settings and clicking on the latte logo. this same method doesn't work on the git either . something I should of added to the first post is that all this happened after I messed up my latte config and I did ```rm -rf latte*``` inside the config folder
Comment 2 Andres 2020-06-29 03:10:16 UTC
OK I think I figured it out the latest latte git is not creating the .config files correctly it seems. I deleted the settings and tried installing 0.9.11. Then I ran it so it can create the configs. Then I uninstalled it and installed the latest git and everything was working fine. To test my theory I deleted all of latte configs again relaunched latte dock and once again  i could not get the configure latte option to show instead showing an empty space in the context menu.
 also another issue that is probably related to this is if i configure the panels with widgets and stuff with the git created config and then exit latte the panels and docks will not load up upon starting latte.

update presets to proper contextmenu plugin

--at first run, preset settings should be already
configured to work properly; in other case the right
click context menu does not show the correct entries
for latte/docks/panels configuration windows
