Description Al Schaapman 2022-07-02 16:43:27 UTC

SUMMARY
Users may want a larger click target for the Application Menu (Kicker), particularly if the applet is placed in a panel (screen edge) but not at a corner, or if there is a trigger for "Screen Edges" attached to the same corner where the applet is placed. If there were an option to display a text label next to the Application Menu button (e.g. "Applications" or "Menu"), the clickable area could be made larger. Users may also wish for the Application Menu button to display descriptive text instead of an icon.
