I have the same question, i.e. how to sort/rearrange the categories in the main menu. Namely, I added one category and renamed another one, and now they're positioned at the end of the main "menu".

Also, how can app icons be refreshed? Sometimes the icon of a newly installed app is just some default rectangular icon (also, the same now applies to the two categories mentioned above). Is there some icon-cache reset or something like that? (This is probably not Catorise Plus related, as I've encountered it before.)

Locate and edit the icons?

I've always done that by restarting the device. Crude but works.

Hi,
I installed the latest version Catorise. There was no division of icons in the menu, but they are still unsorted. I tried to uninstall and reinstall, but still behaves the same. Is there any possibility to sort the icons in the menu?

Thank you

Restarting did indeed solve the category icons. However, some of the app icons (an issue from before) remained unchanged.

One more thing... do categories need to be named in "ai_category_SomeName" format? I see the default names are in this format, but when I added another one in this format, it would be literally called that way in the main menu. So I only entered the proper name later on.

Also, two categories (one that was created by me, and another one that I renamed) are at the end of the main menu. How can I fix this? Is it related to "ai_category_SomeName" format?

I've added an icon for Octave but the item doesn't seem to want to appear in Catorise Plus. it does shows up properly in the "All" category (outside of Catorise) when browsing the applications though. My .desktop file (in /usr/share/applications/hildon/) is as follows:
Have anyone had this kind of issue and how do you remedy it? From where does Catorise Plus generate its list and is there a way to manually refresh it? Tried rebooting a few times but no luck.

Also, as far as I've understood Catorise is supposed to read the "Categories" key (if available) and categorise it accordingly, is that correct?

I had the same problem, and tried to solved it without desinstalling, but no chance. But with desinstall, it worked for me.

sudo apt-get remove catoriseplus
sudo rm -R /opt/catorise
sudo apt-get install catoriseplus

Maybe you might want to copy your /opt/catorise in /opt/catoriseback

Sorry to bring back to life this very old thread, but does someone know what is the command executed when hitting the save button on the Catorise Plus GUI?
It doesn't work for me, I mean the changes made aren't taken into account, and I blame the sudoers file, as I've made some changes to always ask for a password (except a few cases).
I created a catorise rule which says to not ask a password for /opt/catorise/catorise and if I execute that command with sudo, the changes made in Catorise Plus GUI are taken into account. So I presume that the save button from the GUI is executing another command to refresh the menu.

So what is that command so I can add it to the sudoers file.

Thanks.

It will get saved in:

and will get refreshed with this command:
