[Maemo 5] Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
 

Following on from the MyMenu thread, this is to discuss the new Catorise application which creates, and maintains, a categorised menu rather than the "Nokia + more..." menu which comes out of the box.

works great installed without a problem.
just curious did you move the more category to top row as you screenshot as icon in different place to mine

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
 

Not intentionally ;-)

If possible, it'd be very useful if you could send me the following:

• a screenshot
• the /etc/xdg/menus/hildon.menu file
• the /opt/catorise/menu file

Thanks in advance.

Looks great, I've had my eyes on MyMenu but I like the new App Manager's icons more so I'll go with this one. I'll try to report back any weird things I encounter while using it.

Edit: My more button is also placed in a "random" spot.

(let me know if you can't see the image).

Edit2: Fennec shows up fine under Network but not microB. I can only find it under "All".

Re: Catorise: auto-sort applications menu
 

I imagine you've figured this out by now, but anything in the ovi repo is categorized under "user/hidden" which is why they aren't getting put into the correct categories. Perhaps you could scrape the ovi store, or use RPC/JSON?

edit:
Seems to hold true for anything in the Nokia repo as well.

Just installed it, looks great. Will manual edits to /opt/catorise/menu to change the categories of some apps be overwritten in future updates, or is there a more preferred way to do this?

Thanks again, great job.
