Sepicola,
That worked. Will still keep an eye out for a complete disable. Oddly, before the transparency the highlighting didnt cover the whole icon, but now it does. Strange. The bottom 20% or so did not become highlighted. Strange, but my problem is fixed, so thanks.

Disable Highlighting effect of Main Menu icon on Lxpane
When I hover over lxpanel's main menu icon, it highlights a square. This highlightling looks terrible after changing my icon. I would like to disable or change this highlighting effect entirely. Anyone know if it's possible?

Re: BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
sepicola, I believe this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=53523 mentions it, look at oldheri's post. Initially I had disregarded this, until after fiddlding with lxde-applications.menu and .desktop files got me no where, I went back and played with what he mentions. So oldheri did u...

Re: BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
secipolla,
It seems like the command= always refers to one of lxpanelctl's functions? If not, I wonder what else command= can do.

Re: BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
sportscliche, The wiki link you posted doesn't mention how to add a program shortcut to the BASE or ROOT of the main menu. This link only describes and has examples for how to add a program to a Category/submenu on the main menu, as it neglects to show an example of a non-Categorized program shortcu...

Re: BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
Brad R. This looks interesting. Can you post the contents of that custom alacarte-made desktop file? My solution to adding a program to the base main menu is to edit not the desktop or .menu files, but instead just editting ~/.config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/panel Obviously this is said to be ill-advised...

Re: LXpanel -- How To Reload Config?
rockdoctor, The command 'lxpanelctl restart' basically is just a shutdown/reload. But when you change, say, the font color of lxpanel and hit "close" from the 'Panel Settings' gui, the settings are adjusted without having to see the panel disappear and reappear, which means that lxpanel it...

Re: BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
sportscliche, Post #5 refers to freedesktop standards, it's true, but it does not describe placing an item on the base of the menu. The freedesktop specifications are long, technical, long, and lack a serious diversity of examples (two examples in the whole bloody thing if I remember right, you'd ne...

BASE Main Menu Shortcut, NOT in a submenu!
I would like to put shortcuts for some programs on the BASE of the main menu, NOT in a Category/submenu. Logout and Run are already like this, but I don't understand how they manage it from the *desktop file and the 'panel' config file. Every guide about adding Main Menu items to the lxde main menu ...
