KDE 3.3 Menus

equinox · 04-06-2005, 07:39 AM

Is it possible to arrange items in the menu in alphabetical order? I'd like to have Amarok at the top instead of Amarok sitting somewhere under Juk for example.

There is no "Sort alphabetically" option.

But you can use KDE Menu Editor to change the order of the menus.

Go to KDE Start Menu --> Settings --> Menu Editor from your KDE menu. There you can change the order of menus by using the mouse drag and drop.

Not what you might want, but effective anyway.

I kinda new that ;P

I have seen various ways to tweak kde configs but just wondered if anyone knew of some kinda "registry setting" that could do this.

but thanks...

There is no registry in Linux though

obviously you haven't tried gnome ;-)

Btw, here are a few just incase you are so sure there aren't none http://wiki.kdenews.org/tiki-index.p...fig%20Settings

There is still no registry in Linux. What are you talking about?

Those are configuration files, not registry settings.

Does anyone know of a config file that may help with my problem?

equinox: there is an equivalent of the gnome config-editor in KDE as well. It is called KConfigEditor (for KDE realted configs) and YaST's 'Sysconfig Editor' for system configurations. The config files may be kmenueditrc, kdeglobals and/or kickerrc. All located in ~/.kde/share/config. The best candidate however would be ~/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu

BTW: Thanks!

I was also wondering "How to sort the KDE menu items !".
