A few months ago I tried out GNOME to see if it has made any
improvements, and one thing I noticed is that the Games menu does not
have any submenus. As someone who installs every game available, this
made the menu quite unorganized. KDE has several submenus under games
such as Arcade, Card Games, Kids Games, Strategy etc.
I am wondering if it is possible to define some sub-categories we can
use for games to help clean up the games menu? Does GNOME support
these submenus? And is it possible to define our own set of submenus
for the Games menu? I think that since there are going to be many
more games added over the coming months and years it would be prudent
to implement some standards for this if possible as the Games menu is
already quite large, especially in GNOME.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe the menus are built from the Category
settings in the .desktop files. I wonder if there's a way to get
submenus created for the various categories of games: ArcadeGame,
StrategyGame, PuzzleGame, 3DGame, etc.
I agree that having a Games menu so large that it can't be fully
rendered on a 1600x1200 display is a little annoying. :)
