Bug#391313: [Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#391313: xfdesktop4: xfce4-menueditor .config/xfce4/desktop/programing.xml opens wrong file

[Alexander Samad]

Hi

I have a xfce menu on my panel, that is linked to a custom menu
(.config/xfce4/desktop/programing.xml)
when i click on the properties of the xfce panel item there is a edit
menu button, when i click on that it comes up with the default menu

I am not sure how to get to the Open Menu item from there.

the last bit is mixed in with this.

So if I start in my home directory and run

xfce4-menueditor .config/xfce4/desktop/programing.xml

if brings up the default menu, if i then select open from the menu bar 
(ctrl+o) it show me my files in the current home directory, I cann't see
any files which start with . and thus can traverse the tree
.config/xfce4/desktop/programing.xml

which means I have to move the file into the home directory and then 
once I have finished editing it I have to then place it back in the 
directory

Alex
