Yup, thanks--I was using a capital W on the first element and that failed. That puts up the dialog box right next to the menu like a submenu, and everything works.

Seems to me that entry would fit better under Settings.

Ehhh, not really a Settings menu entry, is it?
If it was up to me, I would categorize it under 'Utilities', together with entries for screen capture, recent files, empty-trash and the likes

Well it allows removal. addition and renaming of workspaces, all of which fits for me under the concept of Settings. Following the principle laid out in the first post of this thread, I'm very reluctant to open up new categories--especially one so large as Utilities--and I want/need to get this topic closed b/c it could be discussed forever otherwise.

But you have gotten me thinking about screen capture...
