Hi,
I’m trying to add the Advanced Mate Menu but it doesn’t appear in the panel.
I can see that a small 1 pixel dot has appeared in the middle of the panel, but I can’t grab it with mouse and I cannot delete it from the panel.
I’m on ubuntu-mate 15.10 with mate 1.10. I had everything updated this morning.
Anybody had this problem ?
Control Center -> Personal -> MATE Tweak -> Interface -> Panels -> Panel layouts -> pick preferred option
That’s an alternative to the “Add to Panel” version which doesn’t seem to work for you for whatever reason. 
Thanks for the info. I had to pick “opensuse” layout, it was the only panel that appeared with the mate menu.
I have modified it to bring it back to my taste.
I have absolutly no clues to why it does that at all.
Do you know where is stored the panel configuration information ?
Regards,
Bernard
/usr/share/themes/name of your theme/gtk-3.0
There you’ll be able to find a css style sheet called “mate-applications.css” in which the panel configuration information are stored.
Thanks, I'll take a look at those so see if there is a problem in the css.
Oups! The openSUSE layout use the gnome menu not the mate menu. In mate 1.10 I only have the following layouts: cupertino, gnome, netbook, openSUSE, Redmon, Ubuntu mate. We do no have the layouts with the mate menu that we use to have in 1.8.2. Are they gone forever ???
I have found the code for the applet at :
/usr/share/mate-panel/applets/org.mate.panel.MateMenuApplet.mate-panel-applet
But I still have not found where the current config is stored yet.
Regards,
Bernard
Well, there is something at /usr/lib/mate-menu called “mate-menu-config.py©”.
That’s the only dependency I can make out. At this point however, I don’t think I know enough to be able to help any further. Sorry for that!
Youd did alreally help me a lot.
Thanks for the help.
