Panel Icons right click behaviour

Hi all, I just wondering if there is a way to change the right click response for those icons on the panel, instead of showing "Launcher, Properties, Move, Remove and panel" options, it could show the options for a specific app, in example for a web browser, could it be "open a new window, open a new private window"
Thanks!

That's the only behavior one gets with xfce4-panel, unfortunately. I also wish there was a way to get the auxiliary actions into a right-click menu, for things like "open a new private window". My workaround is to add more launchers, or use one launcher with multiple entries that do actions like "open a new private window".

But you can install dockbarx, and xfce4-dockbarx-plugin from MX stable repo and use that instead of launchers and window buttons plugin. You will receive some more options in both functionality and visuals.
You may also choose some other stand-alone dock (like cairo or plank), but above-mentioned combination will blend nicely with xfce4 panel.
DockbarX and the plugin should be in the Test Repo still... not the Main repo.

I see it in Stable tab of mxpi.
EDIT:
Code: Select all
$ apt-cache policy dockbarx
dockbarx:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.93+git20190103-1~mx19+1
Version table:

Well, I'll be damned, it is. When I packaged it, it was in the Test Repo, and I didn't ask for it to get moved lol.
