Menu Icons for the Application
Hi All,

I created an RPM for my application.
After clicking the rpm, I managed to place the files in repective locations also I have "JServer" menus in the "Application" menu (The redhat one).

But the problem is the icons are not appearing in that menu.
I placed my icons/images in "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps"

# jserver-menu.menu (/etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/)


Code:
<Menu>
 <Name>JServer</Name>
  <Menu>
   <Name>JServer</Name>
   <Directory>jserver-directory.directory</Directory>
   <Include>
    <Filename>jserver-start.desktop</Filename>
    <Filename>jserver-stop.desktop</Filename>
   </Include>
  </Menu>
</Menu>


# jserver-start.desktop (/usr/share/applications)
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=JServer
Comment=JServer
Exec=service jserver-service start
Icon=jmenu.png
Terminal=false
Category=Application

Code:
# jserver-stop.desktop  (/usr/share/applications)
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=JServer
Comment=JServer
Exec=service jserver-service stop
Icon=jmenu.png
Terminal=false
Category=Application

# jserver-directory.directory (/etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/)
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Icon=jmenu.png
Name=JServer

and the jmenu.png is in "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps".



Any clue?

Can there be alt-texts to icons?

Can you add hover texts (alt-texts) to icons? It is not always obvious what each of them mean just by looking at them. Sometimes it is clear from the url it points to, but for accessibility reasons alone it would be good to have alt-texts as a standard. (1 Reply)
