Hello, hello!

In the theme devistation (http://www.lsd-trip.de/?file=themes/index.php&func=details&id=99) there is a function which allows the corners to activate a menue when the mouse is moved over the area.

I was wondering if there was a way to modify this so that activating the menu requires not only mouse over, but also clicking. This is because, some times it becomes a hassil, especially when running an application in full screen mode, such as a game.

Here is the code:

WinampAutoHide false
WinampDisable true
VWMDisable true
VWMAutohide false



; bottom left
*ckHotspot 0 -1 1 1 "!PopupDynamicFolder 'e:\shortcuts\all'" ""

; top left
*ckHotspot 0 0 1 1 !PopupTop ""



;-------------------------------------------------------

*Popup !New !PopupTop

*Popup !Separator
*Popup "net" !DynamicFolder:"e:\shortcuts\net"
*Popup "apps" !DynamicFolder:"e:\shortcuts\apps"
*Popup ~New

You'll have to do a bunch of coding. ckhotspot isn't set up for OnClick responses, so you should check out tbe xlabel module instead.

Yep, you can use transparent xlabels to make hotspots and then easily modify them to activate by either mouseover or clicking. The new xHotspots probaby does the same thing, perhaps with a little bit less configuration.

xhotspot won't do it if you need clicks (as it really is another hotspot module and does not create any windows you could click on). you may however add all the xhotspots which should be deactivated during a game to a group and then toggle it before and after playing, or use litestep's built-in fullscreen detection to trigger it.

Oh man this sounds complex :P

Can anyone recommend a similar theme in simplicity which has clickable corners as a replacement to this elemental theme?
