GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 452375
Fine-grained "changed" signal
Last modified: 2021-05-25 12:45:46 UTC
Right now, gnome-menus tells us that the menus has changed, but we have to reload the whole menu. I'd love to have more fine-grained control on this. This would involve: + knowing when a menu entry has changed (but not its categories) + knowing when a menu entry appears/disappears + knowing when a directory has changed (icon, or name, but not its content) + knowing when a new "subdirectory" appears This probably needs a lot of work, though.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-menus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
