Usage

Log in to the desktop if you have not done it already.

Open the menu with Super + Space, anything you type will filter the application list. There are buttons to access the Settings Manager and to log out.

The Application Finder is assigned to Alt + F3, it will also filter the application list as you type.

And there is a collapsed version assigned to Alt + F2.

Other useful shortcuts are:

Most of the settings, including these shortcuts, can be configured through the applications in the “Settings” and the “System” categories of the menu.
