How to order apps in the menu?

Hello,
We are upgrading Galaxy from Rel 16 to Rel 20 using the Docker deployment.
No matter what we do, restart the container, update /config/tool_conf.xml with our apps in the order we want them and then “supervisorctl restart galaxy:”, Galaxy comes up with the applications, but not in the order we want them.
How can we force it to “respect” the order we give it the apps?
Below, the list of our apps in the order we want them.
Thanks!

Hi George

Not sure whether this works using the Docker deployment:

Have you tried deleting (or renaming, just to be on the safe side) the ‘integrated_tool_panel.xml’ file before restarting?

Hi

I don’t know the exact reason why the file “integrated_tool_panel.xml” is not properly re-written every at every restart. I would just call it a bug (aka ‘feature’) in the code which has been around for some time.
