OK, so I have the theme Popsicle, and what I'm trying to set up is I want the right WIN key to open up my quicklaunch folder? How do I do that? I know how to set it up to open Popup, and the quicklaunch is a subfolder of Popup, but.... How would I specify the folder? And would it be *Hotkey or jKeyRWinKey? Iffin you know what I'm saying.. Any help or suggestions appreciated.. Thanks!

The only way to specify the right WIN key is to use jKeyRWinKey I believe. For that you would need to make sure you are using jDesk though.

OK, well, that's what I thought, and I can specify the right WIN key, but that's not the problem I'm having. The problem is specifying the quicklaunch folder.

Stick this in one of your config files:

*Popup "Shortcuts" !New !PopupMyShortcuts
*Popup "Shortcuts" "!PopupDynamicFolder:$ShortcutsDir$"
*Popup ~new

Change the name (!popupmyshortcuts) if you want to, and replace $shortcutsdir$ with $quicklaunch$, which should be defined for you by the LS core if you're using a reasonably recent build. Then just bind the popup bang (!popupmyshortcuts or whatever you decide to name the menu) to the desired hotkey.

Thanks dude, that worked wonderfully. Is there anywhere I can read that tells me how to do things like that? And another problem I'm having is that in the personal config folder, I have the option
;--> if set to false, folders must be clicked to unfold sub-menus.
PopupFolderHoverOpen true
I want to have to click for the folder to open the sub. I set it to false, save, refresh litestep and it doesn't do anything. Any ideas?

Well, we do have these things called "documentation" that come along with each module. They should be in your modules/docs folder. As far as the popups are concerned, that line worked with the old popup2 module, but most themes use xpopup nowadays, and the syntax is slightly different. Try this instead:

xPopupFolderOpenOnClick true

And yes, that's in the docs, too. =)

Ah, yes, that worked, too. So I guess I'll just go through all the readmes. Thanks a bunch.
