Pushed a fix for this in master. Under the xfce4-desktop channel, add the /desktop-icons/right-click-edits-menu and set it to FALSE and it will be back to how it was. Shift + left click can then be used to easily edit the launchers.
commit 2287081a6e62e136fbc4976958623f60e7607b92 Author: Eric Koegel <eric.koe...@gmail.com> Date: Mon Oct 27 13:08:17 2014 +0300 Editing menu items with right click optional (Bug #11031) "/desktop-icons/right-click-edits-menu" xfconf option has been added. Setting it to FALSE will disable the right click menu editor and revert to the previous behavior. The menu can still be edited with a shift+left click in either case. http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/commit/?id=2287081a6e62e136fbc4976958623f60e7607b92 Marking this bug a closed, enjoy! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1344535 Title: New "right click edits launchers" feature breaks "show applications menu on desktop right click" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1344535/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
