Re: [gentoo-user] "Application Menu" missing on Desktop after Plasma update to 5.17.4 : solved

[Philip Webb]

I've solved the missing L-click problem quite simply for my own use.

Use R-click to open the desktop context menu -> Configure Desktop
-> Mouse Actions -> Right Button : make it Application Launcher ;
that brings back the desktop menu of applications.

There was  1  problem : I could no longer access the context menu !
So I changed the line in  plasma-whatsit  in  ~/.config
to make the middle button bring up 'contextmenu' & everything was usable.
I had lost the possibility of dumping text into a sticky note,
but as I never want to do that in real life, it's an advantage.

L-click still does nothing on the desktop, but I can live with that.
