system: manjaro kde
display: 4K
problem:
After installed 'menu x ' and 'menu z', I click the button or search, the planes are too small both of them. It cannot show all icon.
Did you try a 4K display?

This application does not seen to honor its own configuration items.

for example,
i have recent applications deselected.
I have recent documents deselected.
I have recent contacts deselected.

And yet I have a "recents" section in the right hand pane of the menu

If I have ALL right pane items deselected NO right pane items should be displayed but they are.

Also, if I have no right pane items selected the right pane should not be displayed,

I would like to see a menu that is just wide enough to display the MENU items on the left!

Hello, what is your distribution? For kubuntu I didn't have much time to make it compatible.

Same here but in Debian, maybe it's due to old libraries?

10 Hello ADHE, how are you?
You could create a variation of Menu X, with the modular design of this concept (https://imgur.com/UP6itUU), it could be called Menu Y hahahahaha.
I found this design very interesting and modern, it would be great to have it in Plasma. <3

Plasma does not start with this applet, you need to remove "Menu X" from ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file in order to Plasma work again

On Ubuntu 18.04 I get:
Error loading QML file: file:///home/vercas/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/menuX/contents/ui/main.qml:75:9: Type MenuRepresentation unavailable
file:///home/vercas/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/menuX/contents/ui/MenuRepresentation.qml:49:9: Type SideBarItem unavailable
file:///home/vercas/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/menuX/contents/ui/SideBarItem.qml:85:9: Cannot assign to non-existent property "includeUnusedSessions"

Had to manually remove this from my config to get Plasma to work again... Also happens with Menu Z.
