Super_L for Applictations menu

[edit]

I have just done a new install of Linux Mint (19.3 with xfce), but I can't get Super_L to open the applications menu. I replaced whiskers with that because I prefer the simple list view.
In settings > keyboard > apllication shortcuts I see Super_L activates xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu. That should work, I think, but when I press it the first time the button (or rather text) becomes dark, but the menu doesn't open, and then when I press it a second time I get a popup at the mouse pointer with 10 items. At the bottom is 'Properties', which opens deskop properties. And indeed, Ctr-Esc, which activates xfdesktop --menu, opens that menu the first time.
With Super_L, after that, I get that menu every time, unless I use the mouse to open the applications menu and then close it again. Then Super_L first makes the button dark again and then opens the desktop menu.
Alt-F1 also activates xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu and has the same behaviour.
In the former installation of Mint I see that Super_L makes the Applications button lighter, not darker. And opens the menu. DirkvdM (talk) 11:42, 8 June 2020 (UTC)reply
