If another action is added in addition to a custom context menu, unfortunately this happens and cannot be deleted again. I suppose this is a bug.

I wanted to move the mouse to the center of the screen so that the menu always opens there.

Good point, I need to disable the ability to add items there. I think you can delete them after pressing the configure button - they are probably listed as menu items there.

Yes, that works.

The menu opens where the mouse is. I suppose then there is no way to move the mouse to the center of the screen so that the menu always opens there?

I can add an option to open at the center. Currently you could put the menu in a named trigger - then it should be possible to first move the mouse and then call the named trigger to open the menu

But then I have to rebuild my menus?

Yep! But I think in the menu config you can select & copy all of them, then paste into a new menu. (Copying the menu action itself does not work at the moment)

I must admit that I never really understood the concept of named triggers.

I built this in ".. & other triggers".

Now I should be able to assign a shortcut with this action.

But what is the name of the named trigger? Sorry, it's certainly me, but I don't understand it.

Maybe this can clarify it: [Reusable Named Triggers · GitBook (folivora.ai)](http://docs.folivora.ai/docs/1002_named_triggers.html)

(Basically they are action sequences that are independent of the trigger type, so you can call it from keyboard, gestures etc.)
