I've read the docs included with the popup module [they rock] and i have read the faq's on various sites and other peoples problems in here, and since i cant search in here because they are updating or something it says.. im just gonna ask.
I'm configuring studio28v3 theme if that matters, for the popup menu i dont think it does. im mainly editing the personal/popup.rc file.. and the theme's theme.rc.. heres what it says now.. i didnt do much but add a few lines.
and the popup menu is set up with stuff like this:
etc..etc.. im guessing the e is how it expands or something.. is there another switch that will also make it clickable?
i want my popup menu to act as so:
when i right click it opens.. duh.. and if i hover over a folder it opens the dynamic menu, ok simple and default so far.. i added icons, etc all the easy crap.. but i cant for the life of me make the folders open if you single left click on them.. they open dynamically but what if i want to open one in explorer to view it? for instance.. folders that have say 10000 pics in them or something that just isnt worth using the menu. since its all pretty much dynamic i didnt think there was a way to edit folders on the fly i just want EVERY folder that gets a single left click to actually open.
of course im new, but i at least spent two days reading these docs and i have successfully edited everything in this theme including creating a matching sysmetrix skin and this is the last task for me to fix. i also noticed that with winamp5 the open winamp command wasnt kicking in.. so i just manually replaced that bang command or whatever with the path and exe name.. works great now.
but anyways this sounds so easy to me but i either missed it like a moron or its just not there in the docs.
as it is now i have to right click on the folders and click open and thats just too much damn work =] heh no in all reality its just a preference i would really like and cant seem to find.
anyways thanks ahead of time and if this has been posted sorry i would have searched if i could.
