It's really great! :) Well...there's just one little thing...when I click on the icon of the menu the kwin shadow appears and only a little later the menu itself. This is not so nice to see. Apart from this I love it! :) I’m using lancelot in kubuntu intrepid! It’s really great! :)

Or is it in hardy-backports? I hate repeating myself. I the active Plasma theme contains images needed by Lancelot, those will be used. No theme provides that ATM, so you see the default one. @Czessi

Works fine and Lancelot is much butter than kickoff. Is it planed that Launcelot use the plasma theme? I use Arezzo but Launcelot still looks like Oxygen.

Unfortunately, having the middle click (wheel click) globally replaced is not an option. I would like to have a way to invoke the menu by mouse without the need for a launcher applet, but middle click has a couple useful features (the paste as a global one, open in new tab / or close a tab in some applications, ...). This would be possible for super-mouses that have more than 3 buttons. You'd just have to call $ qdbus org.kde.lancelot /Lancelot show 0 0 @antonis
