This is a list of third party application/applets which offer features not supported by tint2.

### Pager (desktop switcher)
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [neap](https://github.com/vzxwco/neap)
|
|
|
* [indicator-workspaces](https://launchpad.net/indicator-workspaces)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Start menu
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Trigger start menu appearance from a launcher using `xdotool` and the keyboard shortcut that displays the start menu (let's say Super+Space). Create a shortcut in `~/.local/share/applications/start-menu.desktop`:
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
[Desktop Entry]
|
|
|
Version=1.0
|
|
|
Name=Start Menu
|
|
|
GenericName=Start Menu
|
|
|
# Gnome and KDE 3 uses Comment.
|
|
|
Comment=Start Menu
|
|
|
Exec=xdotool key super+space
|
|
|
Terminal=false
|
|
|
Icon=/path/to/an/icon
|
|
|
Type=Application
|
|
|
Categories=Utility;
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
Then you have to add `launcher_item_app = ~/.local/share/applications/start-menu.desktop` to your tint2 config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* xfdesktop --menu (XFCE only). You can create a shortcut for it in `~/.local/share/applications/xfce-menu.desktop`:
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
[Desktop Entry]
|
|
|
Version=1.0
|
|
|
Name=XFCE Start Menu
|
|
|
GenericName=Start Menu
|
|
|
# Gnome and KDE 3 uses Comment.
|
|
|
Comment=Start Menu
|
|
|
Exec=xfdesktop --menu
|
|
|
Terminal=false
|
|
|
Icon=xfce4-menu
|
|
|
Type=Application
|
|
