Hej pdavit.

If you use FM3, you can sync changes if you open FM3 Editor and press the save button. That should be it.


BTW, this is the function that recognise Vista Open dialogs (but not Save). You need to replace Favmenu_IsOpenSave with following 2 functions:

Just a tip for everybody who uses this script and would like to use custom icons (since nice 12 x 12 icons are hard to find), I only found one free program that could handle conversion from graphics to 12 x 12 256-bit icons while maintaining transparency settings well: IcoFX (Import -> Resize/Resample -> Save). All others I tried mess up the transparency or are simply bad at resizing.

You can get free icons (ico, png, gif) from numerous sources (watch the licenses though).

HTH

Oh, I guess you don't have FM3 which supports icons of any dimension.

No, where is your 3rd version? I did look, but I couldn't find a description/download link.

[majkinetor]

There is no link yet.

You can get preview here, I was posting it on some places.

One thing I think favmenu should do is set A_workingdir to whatever is run.

hi majkinetor,

can you add support for tc 7.5?
currently if using your latest build, i don't get the current directories (1,2) on top of the dirmenu list.

thx

One minor issue with MMenu: when hovering through the menu, the system default color is applied to the currently hovered item background, but the item text remains as set in the menu (or is it also default?). As such, having a dark background color and dark text color will make items unreadable (my current situation).

How can we overcome this in some automatic mode (like read system bkg color and then set hovered item color in contrast)? Or use custom hover bkg color overriding system default.

Regardless, MMenu is very slick and FavMenu 3 looks great (on my humble Win98SE )

Later edit:
Hmmm... after quickly hovering up and down the menu, I discovered huge GDI leaks. Guess it's not very 9x-friendly, but that's (probably) just my problem. Thought I should report it though, just in case...

Re-edit:
Guess it's the tooltips. They usually appear at the top-left of primary monitor but occasionally flash at bottom-left of secondary monitor and resources drop around 2-3% then.

May have something to do with missing menu items as well (paths that are in the ini and do not exist physically on the system). Those sub-menus open up narrow and empty - may be better to show a --missing-- label instead.

Is it possible to start Favmenu (or any other script actually) by rightclicking the windows desktop?

[majkinetor !]

@szekelya: Yes, Visit Ask for help forum

@all:
I am not sure how will be future of FavMenu. MMenu is developed long, its time for update, but I am sure now menus are not right choice for FavMenu. I am thinking atm about replacing interface with QHTM, adding Property getter/setter control for options instead of Setup GUI etc...

I am not sure if / when is that going to be done.

i am using TC7.5, too. the biggest problem for me is that, when i click the root and upper dir icon ("\", "..") area of the right side of TC, favmenu is always invoked, which prevents me from using TC functionalities.
besides, Current Dirs in TC does not work for me in explorer or other applications.
anyway, your work is greatly appreciated.

[majkinetor]

Nope. It extends open save, console, browse for folder and explorer too.

Hi, yup I've heard about it for years but due to the new direct folders apparently having malware I thought I'd try this script. I downloaded the "3rd" version here in this thread and get "file manager not found" and the default to open is "total commander".
I should be directing it to windows explorer right?
I'm on win 7
