AppMenu v5

New Features

  • Real native menu extraction — reads GTK app actions via D-Bus for live categorized menus (File, Edit, View, Help)
  • 80+ known action labels with smart categorization across 7 menu types
  • Dynamic D-Bus discovery — finds apps that don't keep their bus name active
  • D-Bus service activation — activates app services transparently to fetch actions
  • Per-window action support — captures window-specific actions like tab toggles
  • Toggle/radio ornament — check marks and radio dots for stateful actions
  • Wayland compatibility fix — WM class fallback when Shell.WindowTracker is null

Fixes

  • window.is_minimized() compatibility across GNOME Shell versions
  • Stale schema crash on live reload (compatibility key)
  • OS icon visibility — uses start-here-symbolic from Yaru theme
  • Tighter panel button spacing
