Create new "Properties" Custom-Action

$

I use the "Properties" option a lot for file information and it annoys me that it's right at the bottom of the Right-Click menu. I know how to create 'Custom-Actions' and that they can be moved UP or DOWN the menu list. Custom Actions List

Instead of "Run Command" I would like a "Properties" item which I can move up the list.

Linux-Mint 21.3 (File Manager - Thunar)

I came up with this so far. New Properties in Menu but the cannibalized code yad --info --title="File Properties for %n" --text="$(echo; echo -n 'INFO-1: ''stat' %n | awk '{print $1}'; echo; echo 'INFO-2:'ls -l %n | awk '{print $1}')" --width=350 --height=280 --center --button=gtk-close

Only produces: Right-ClickThe "stat" command is not producing data, just titles. I'd point it at the "Properties" bin file and get same result as:Original Properties Popup but I don't think there is one. Suggestions welcomed.
