Drive Context Menu on a Shortcut Thread last updated on 2005-09-04 19:16:38

Hi all, just switched to lightstep from geoshell. A bit more complex than im used to, but by god im loving it :D
Anwyays, I have a nice theme I have downloaded and im playing around with it.
It has shortcut buttons for c drive, d drive, etc, and seeing as i use a disk imaging program, i want to be able to rightclick my x: drive and popup the standard windows rightclick menu for the drive.
It has been driving me nuts trying to figure it out.
ANY help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What theme? If it wasn't from this site, please link. There are many ways of doing what you want, but it depends on how those shortcuts were made.

It is from this site, called fleepstep 3. An excellent minimalist theme.

Again...if you can't spell the name of the app right...or even copy it off the top of the site...do you really deserve to be helped?

If you cant help, please just dont post.

Ya... back in your cage, admin! :D

Btw, that theme uses shortcut2, which doesn't accept right clicks? Atleast a quick glance at the docks seem to say so (which I find hard to believe is accurate). If it did take right clicks, you could use something like Context Menu.

Cool, thanks! justr what i needed.
Now, where do i assign a new bang for "!ContextMenu path " ?

In the shortcut. You'll find lines for those shortcuts in the config files, as "*shortcut" something.

I'd think it would be pretty simple to convert a shortcut2 item to using label (which that theme uses too), and then you could add an OnRightClick. Time for you to get out the docs and do some reading on label-1.99. ;)

I thought it was weird to not have such a necessary feature in LS o.O
Glad to see i was wrong.
Thanks guys!

Just heard about it but signed up for an account over a year ago. hrmmm... I don't buy it. As for respecting you and getting you an answer to the horrible question you asked. Not until you respect the app. I don't care what time it is...there is no excuse.
