Drawers, an application that lets you create drawers ("stacks") on the Unity Launcher for quick access (or just to unclutter / better organize the Unity Launcher) to various app shortcuts, files, links and so on, has been updated today with a much requested feature: AppMenu Drawers.
AppMenu Drawers is a new type of drawer which tries to imitate the old GNOME2-style menu, displaying applications grouped by category. These types of drawers can be created for any level of menu hierarchy and the subcategories can easily be accessed via quicklists:
Other changes in the latest Drawers 13.3.1 include:
- icons can now be up to 128px;
- drawer color updates with wallpaper changes.
Drawers comes with many useful features, allowing you to add any kind of file types, links and so on to a drawer and it also supports "active drawers" in which the content of a folder is added to a drawer and is constantly monitored for changes so when you add files to that folder, the drawer is updated automatically.
Install Drawers
Drawers is currently available for Ubuntu 13.04, 12.10 and 12.04 and it can be installed from its official PPA, by using the following commands in a terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ian-berke/ppa-drawers
