how to replace "delete" with "remove permanently" in thunar menu "view",
and to delete "move to trash"?
thanks

Re: thunar
Don't know if you can remove the "move to trash" option, but you can ADD the "delete/remove permanently" option by going to Menu bar >> Edit >> Preferences, and in one of the tabs of the Preferences window, tick the checkbox to add the "delete permanently" option to the menu.

Re: thunar
That's not an available setting in Thunar 1.6.15. Delete is permanently there unless you modify the source code and recompile. Same with move to trash. You're thinking of the newer Thunar that's in MX-19b1.asqwerth wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2019 1:17 am Don't know if you can remove the "move to trash" option, but you can ADD the "delete/remove permanently" option by going to Menu bar >> Edit >> Preferences, and in one of the tabs of the Preferences window, tick the checkbox to add the "delete permanently" option to the menu.

Re: thunar
I saw that the perm delete option there was gone. Need to find the trashcan again

Re: thunar
I'm running that version (1.6.15) and have both Delete & Trash options.... not certain where I set it though. I do believe the next version of Thunar with xfce4.14 has the option. You can certainly create a Thunar custom action with the data available here:JayM wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2019 1:40 amThat's not an available setting in Thunar 1.6.15.

You can turn Delete back on in Preferences>Behaviour.

Re: thunar
Thanks, I will find that then. Easily sorted :) And maybe it is safer to have a trashcan, found it already :)
