</I>
On which environment did you test? GNOME? KDE?

The specification is followed by the desktop environment as far as I
know, but the distro defines some rules (using the menu spec)

inline works and is used in /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu:

  &lt;Name&gt;Applications&lt;/Name&gt;
  &lt;Layout&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Internet&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Office&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Graphics&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;SoundVideo&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Tools&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Development&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Games&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Education&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Sciences&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Menuname inline=&quot;false&quot;&gt;Documentation&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Merge type=&quot;menus&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;Merge type=&quot;files&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;Separator/&gt;
    &lt;Filename&gt;rpmdrake.desktop&lt;/Filename&gt;
  &lt;/Layout&gt;
  &lt;DefaultLayout inline=&quot;true&quot; inline_limit=&quot;1&quot;&gt;
    &lt;Merge type=&quot;files&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;Menuname&gt;More&lt;/Menuname&gt;
    &lt;Merge type=&quot;menus&quot;/&gt;
  &lt;/DefaultLayout&gt;
