Bug ID: 507918
Summary: Application Launcher does not change after making
changes in Menu Editor
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First master
Reported In:
Platform: KDE Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff) widget
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I tried to change the ordering, adding and removing of app links in the
Application Launcher, by using the "KDE Menu Editor Version 5.27.11". After
saving, the Menu Editor diligently remembers my configurations, but the actual
Application Launcher remains unchanged, even after a system reboot.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Observe a list of apps in the Application Launcher
2. Right-click the Application Launcher launcher widget/button
3. Select 'Edit Applications...' to launch the menu editor
4. Make changes. Eg reorder the apps
5. "Save Document"
6. Observe a list of apps in the Application Launcher again, and check for
changes
OBSERVED RESULT
The Application Launcher retains its initial ordering
EXPECTED RESULT
Application Launcher reflects the settings as set in the Menu Editor
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: x
macOS: x
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.12
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13
Kernel Version: 6.8.0-71-generic (64-bit)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am a bit new to bug reporting for KDE and it is quite likely that the core
problem is that some configuration file has been corrupted, causing the
Application Launcher to fail at loading it.
But I am also quite inexperienced in finding such files on my system. If a file
deletion/reset is a likely solution, please provide the files (default)
location.
