It is strange that nothing changed when you did all those things, but
anyway.
I suppose you want to see only applications in the menu (no categories).
I've just commited a patch to do this. Download the latest version from
github and place the following line in menubar configuration section:
menubar.show_categories = false
You can look into rcsample.lua if something goes wrong.
Now to the 'use = false' part. Turning this flag off not only stops
category from being shown, but also ignores all .desktop files in this
category. So, for example, if Education category is off and menubar sees
file mathlab.desktop which has a line 'Category=Education' inside it will
ignore it.
I'll be glad to clarify anything else you find sophisticated.
Best regards,
Alexander
