Simple problem:
I have a fresh xubuntu installation (16.04.1) on a very old notebook.
Everything works fine now, but I'd like to toggle the "start menu". (I don't know what it's called in linux sorry :c)
I found several solutions telling me to use shortcuts, tl;dr binding xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu
to Super+L works well to open the menu.
The problem is, as you may guessed because of my totally not obvious formatting, that I can't close this menu by pressing the same button again.
I remember being able to do so on another (older) Xubuntu installation I had some time ago, not sure though.

Go to the
Application Shortcuts
tab in the keyboard settings, create a new shortcut and copy the command that is triggered by Ctrl+Esc (the default shortcut for the Whisker Menu).As of Xubuntu 16.04, the command you have to enter is
xfce4-popup-whiskermenu
