antiX Start Menu …
Some might like it, some might hate it but, let’s face the facts — it’s THE worst menu that I ever saw in some 30 years of computing.
It’s the ultimate usability nightmare and a most perfect example how a start menu should never be done.
It’s definitely fitting the name — antiSanityX!
IceWM start menu is archaic — it doesn’t offer any application search field.
In such menus, 10 apps per sub-menu is maximum length from the usability aspect side.
Who’s missing ‘ARandr’ in there, should rather click the Terminal icon (which is always pinned on task bar per default) and enter ‘arandr’.
It’s much quicker then finding it in Start Menu. Or simply enter it in IceWM task bar and start from there.
Settings sub menu is, by the way, the only one that’s allowed to have more than 10 entries — 15 ~ 20 at the maximum.
For the rest — that’s why one has Settings, Control Center or whatever you call it in every OS.
That’s something that ‘normal’ user never needs — you set it (once) and forget it.
What’s there still open to discussion, if the Start Menu has more entries then you can fit on 1920×1080 (most common used) FULL screen?
