Title: Moving between menus
Post by DonM on Apr 9^th, 2003, 9:19pm

No better launching program exist. I use it extensively for drop down menus but sometimes during reorganizing I wish to move a program item from one menu to another. I can't find a way to do this. I'be been using this program for years and love it. I can reach any program in my 120GB drive with only 2 clicks of the mouse. Great time saver.

There is no way to move items between menus. I will consider it for future updates. Thanks for the suggestion.

1 Between menus by drag'n drop, yeah, and categories themselves should be able to accept dropped files and icons from explorer or launchmate.

2 Rightclicking should let you add a new category or button of any type: The list (file, folder, special, spacer, web/email address, menu) would be in the context menu and not in a seperate panel. For file or folder, browse would come up automatically, and when you hit OK, it would be done. Menus could be named "New Folder (#)", Spacers would come up at the default 3,3, and special would have it's own submenu.

3 Rightclick should also have an option to rename buttons.

4 Keyboard navigation shortcuts might be nice. And if you had a customizable 'windows-key' button combination in order to bring up Launchmate and give it the keyboard focus, that'd be cool too.

5 Finally, it'd be cool if you could drag links out of launchmate into explorer! .lnk files would be created.

That would make your program rule the UNIVERSE and people would use it as a viable alternative to their start menus. They would no longer need icons on the desktop, nor quicklaunch menus. They'd just need an alternative task manager/systray-manager at that point. Everything else would be taken care of for them in LaunchMate.

Then I'd make a linux port, and the world would be happy.
