I am trying to customize tint2 panel using the tint2 settings (panel configurator). This is how it looks at the moment: enter image description here I can add application icons to the launcher, etc. But I cannot find how to add "system menu" to the panel. By "system menu" I mean what I think in windows is called "Start button", ie where you click on it and have your applications in categories, such as "Office", "Utilities", "Internet", "Audio & Video". I have been using fbpanel until now, and there is this thing called "systemmenu". This is how its configured in fbpanel: Plugin { type = menu config { IconSize = 22 image = /usr/share/pixmaps/debian-logo.png systemmenu { } } } and here is how it looks like: enter image description here when I click the Debian swirl icon, the "system menu" opens, and I can see all my applications. In tint2 I can only add individual icons on the launcher. But that is not practical for all icons. I don't understand how anybody could use panel without the systems menu. I cannot add 50 individual icons. I need a menu where I can see and select from my applications. **Is it possible to add systems menu to the panel ?** I have created an issue on the projects gitlab page , but got no reaction:
