I'm REALLY compulsive about organizing menus, so imagine my shock at finding that my menus no longer display the way they're supposed to! :shock: ;)
Seriously, though, it's very weird--and it only just started when I upgraded from 7.04 to 8.10. I manually...painstakingly...sort each group's menu alphabetically. I save my changes. The entries APPEAR sorted, just like I want them. But when I access the menu to choose an application, the menus are totally unsorted...I can't even make sense of how they're displaying, they're just in some random order, definitely not alphabetical as I arranged them. And if I go back in to the menu editor, they're all exactly as I left them, sorted alphabetically, so there's nothing I can do there to adjust anything since it's already as it should be.
So what's up with this? Is it a known bug? Is there a fix?
