Hi stan ,

I use x11.

but what strange is...
I understood that the "Desktop Menu Specification"
(https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-latest.html#legacy-hierarchies)
is the base for all the implementations.. .
...in the sense that all the tools (GConf and all the other...) work to manage easily this framework.

Now it seem to me this in not true...

After I post this message I found a tool named "Meow" (https://pnmougel.github.io/meow/) that woks very good..
I made all that I would with this tool but nothing changed on the files .menu on the computer..

You know some explication about this ?

Are you perhaps using Wayland as your server instead of X?  I am not
familiar with Gnome menus, so this is just a guess.  Because the menu
file you edited seems to be for X.
