Re: Script request for button
Hi Irwin, Welcome to XYplorer club. I remember my first post. Well, not really. If you open the Address Bar (go to the Menu | Window | Show Address Bar) if it's not aready shown and then in the Address Bar type in "::snippet;" without the quotes. Then enter the following (cut and paste) in...

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Hey TheQwerty, I can't believe it after so many attempts I was able to make the first submenu item work. I used the 'f' parameter which I had attempted 2 days ago but maybe not with the same quoting. "Generate a new Vertical Toolbar|:conf"; load(<<<GENERATESCRIPT $self GENERATESCRIPT ,'_TB...

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Thanks TheQwerty, I tried the change suggested and I received the same "The list of labels did not match any script in Script resource" error. I had the code that way during most of my runs so I was quite sure it would not work. I sent you the script. It doesn't require any support files. ...

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Hi TheQwerty, thanks for the previous help and advice. I haven't made as much progress on the script as I would have liked. It's working other than the sub-menus. It's not from the lack of trying though this cold I have is not helping. The sub menu for the different vertical toolbars displays fine, ...

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
...does it have advantages if you create a sub-script just to display a menu Well I think it may in this case since the menu listing will be a selection of both XY built-in toolbar buttons and Customized User Buttons displayed vertically. So it wouldn't be so meaningfull to the end user if the menu...

Re: Choose any image within folder as custom thumbnail image
Yes, I specifically asked Don that question earlier in this thread. The desktop ini does take priority over an exiting folder.jpg, but will use the folder.jpg if it doesn't exist.PeterH wrote:I think if you delete desktop.ini XY works as before?

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Thanks TheQwerty for the explanations and the example script. I can follow the script no problem and I also stepped through it. The only thing as far as XY's handling of the script I'm a bit fuzzy on is, why does your very first line 'Script Builder" not appear? It's appears that XY is ignoring...

Re: Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Hi TheQwerty, your fix using the nested heredoc under the menu worked. Originally the entire "if ($toolbars) {" section was under the menu heading, but I moved it out because the <crlf> were a big problem. So I was getting closer by moving it out from under the Vertical Toolbar section, bu...

Using "Load" to bring up a sub menu
Hi, I've be struggling trying to fix a syntax problem in a script I'm writing. I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out or point me in the right direction. It's been driving me nuts all day. The menu uses a couple of developed variables and also uses heredoc. I have a sub menu I want to show ...

Re: Invalid Pattern string error in script
Thanks once again TheQwerty. It looks like it's working fine using "==" with the two foreach loops. I just have to fine tune it to get the proper locations for SC "break" and SC "continue" within/after the loops so I don't have repeats, but the matches are reflected pro...

Re: Invalid Pattern string error in script
Thanks TheQwerty, that's why I couldn't get my original script line to work either which used "LikeI" to see if any one of the entire string matched like so... if ("$cur_user_buttons" LikeI $TB) { With the above line, I got the pre-check marks on all the "matching" tool...

Invalid Pattern string error in script
Hopefully a quick question, I'm getting an error message when comparing variables. In developing an inputselect dialog, I need to compare two strings such that I can have the ones that match, pre-checked. One string of variables is a listing of all current user buttons CTBs and XY built-in buttons c...

Re: SC: Is there a command for MDBU?
Yes, it is indeed better to be able to use XY for as many tasks as possible without resorting to other programs, but then again you can't expect it to do everything. :) ImageEye has a nice clean interface and is very lean and fast. You can configure it to look much like a MDBU with only a very thing...

Re: SC: Is there a command for MDBU?
Hi FileHero, are you talking about any kind of preview or specifically a MDBU preview? You can of course use cid #178 on the current file for a floating preview or #1003 for a full screen preview. I don't know of any way to simulate a MDBU though it might be a nice idea. You could use TheQwerty's It...

Re: Script: Call specific help topics
Hey Stef123, unless you have some other issue going on, you can change size and location via the "ShowHelpFile.ini" which should be adjacent to the script file. See earlier in this thread http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... =15#p92529
