Line 1: Line 1:
When you right-click on your Linux desktop you get a context menu displayed. It looks like this:
+
#REDIRECT [[screenshot on ubuntu]]
 
 
[[File:Snapshot-context-menu-kde-1.png]]
 
 
 
How to edit it highly depends on your desktop environment.
 
 
 
See /usr/share/kde4/services/plasma-containmentactions-contextmenu.desktop

= Questions =
 
* why can't I
 
plasmoidviewer contextmenu
 
: while i can use the contextmenu in .kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc
 
* why can't I use charselect in .kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc
 
: while I can
 
plasmoidviewer charselect
 
* seems this is determined by the type. One has
 
ServiceTypes=Plasma/ContainmentActions
 
the other
 
ServiceTypes=Plasma/Applet
 
* hm... do ContainmentActions need an init function to work? And in case of javascript Applets, just the javascript code is executed and an init function is not needed?
