| Summary | 0006984: The name on the application menu should mean more to the end user | ||||
| Description | Forwarding a bug from Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/scribus/+bug/30261 <quote> The name on the applications menu should be Scribus Desktop Publishing or something similar so it is easier to find out what this program is doing. </quote> It could probably be achieved by using the GenericName keyword in the desktop file. | ||||

hmm, and for "GIMP" it should be "The GNU Image Manipulation Program"? And for e.g. "kdesvn" "KDE Subversion client" etc. OK, it's very easy to implement it, but IMHO it's useless. Let's wait for the others' oppinions. |

IMHO useless and unnecessarily long for a menu |
|
|
well, if it's the menu issue it's definitelly distro's behaviour. We have Scribus (Page Layout) in suse. |

Well, it's the ever ongoing fight between what should be in a menu. I would be for plain "Desktop Publishing" or "Page Layout" as a GenericName. IMHO it wouldn't hurt for it to be included upstream. Then the distro can choose between using the Name, GenericName or a combination of those two keeping the Comment keyword for the tooltip. AFAIK Ubuntu uses GenericName if it exists, PLD plain Name. Just see http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html for the description |

Actually GIMP has the Name keyword set to "GNU Image Manipulation Program" and a GenericName of "Image Editor" in it's upstream sources ;) |
|
|
added Page Layout as the generic name |
