Hi Kubuntu folk,

I'm hoping that someone on this e-list will have an answer for me.

I know that I can follow 'ishwor' instructions to edit the menu.

Can someone please help me with the (1) and (2) requirements for the
App Launcher Menu?

Best Wishes and Happy Debugging  *SMILE*

Thanks for all the help!!! I have followed your instructions (above)
and successfully edited my Menu Launcher(s).

I now have 2 questions:

1) How can I make all of my menus and submenus and menu items be
SORTED -- instead of not sorted (which is what they currently are).

2) When I edited the submenus and menu items, I selected each item one
at a time. Is there a way that I can select multiple menu items (e.g.
like holding the control key or using the shift key -- to select more
than just one menu item)

Thank you very much!!! *SMILE*
