My whisker menu needs some attention. I have two related questions.

1.  Application is shown under in multiple categories.

The .desktop file shows the correct category.

To solve the multiple entry problem I have simply clicked on "hide 
entry" in the menu editor. Is this the preferred method?

2. Application is shown under the wrong category.

Should I simply edit the .desktop file  to show the correct category eg. 
Categories=Audio; ? I think this is correct.
