To move menu item from one submenu to another it is needed to know the name of destination submenu. It is in property Categories, i.e. Categories=Application;Development;Java;IDE. Desktop (.desktop suffix) files are located on two places: ~/.local/share/applications locally in your home and /usr/share/applications globally. Compare the both directories, find out appropriate files and synchronize them. I think, that they should be the same. In my case both files were identical, but in /usr/share/applications was attribute Hidden=true, so i remove it to be both files identical.
The second case is, if the .desktop file is only in local menu. Check it and add Categories property if needed. Remove Hidden property or set it false. Check duplicities (many items has name alacarte-made-nn.desktop) check them, rename them, remove duplicities! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244087 Title: Ubuntu 13.10 Main Menu editor Problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1244087/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
