Customising Right Click Menu Based on Pointer Location

11 July 2022, 20:31:34

Dear Artix Friends,

I have spent some significant time checking wikis and manuals, but I cant seem to find the answer to this.

I recall once having my applications/kickoff menu as a context menu option when right clicking the desktop, possibly with KDE on a different distro. I am running Artix OpenRC with a plasma desktop.

I would like to add the kickoff/application menu to my right click context menu specifically when I right click the desktop.

Could someone please point me to the right docs or let me know how customising this feature is done? I also tried to find the command to open kickoff, then add a custom menu entry to do it in the right click menu, but I hit a wall.

Any help is appreciated. I am certain this is in the man pages somewhere but I cant find it for the life of me!

Kindly,
Linux Enthusiast

Right click the desktop and select "Configure Desktop and Wallpaper"
Or if that fails try ALT-D, ALT-S with no program holding focus. Just left click on the desktop first.

select 'Mouse Actions' on the window that opens and change to your preference.

Edit:
btw on my desktop middle click brings up the launcher.
