Limited beta test for UMC (for XYplorer)
Posted: 05 Sep 2016 12:11
UMC = Ultimate Menu Configurator (for XYplorer)
It allows users to add context menus to XYplorer GUI elements (like tabs, list or tree entries, the address bar, etc.). Showing / hiding menus can be based on rules, e.g. a specific view in XYplorer (like "details", "thumbnails", ...); the selected items have a specific extension (generic file types of XYplorer are supported ("{:Text}, "{:Video}", etc.), or their path contains the word "archives", etc.; selected items are of type "file", "folder", "any of these", or "other data" (neither, nor file or folder); A modifier (shift, ctrl, alt + combinations are supported) is used when a mouse button (left, right, middle, 4th + 5th buttons are supported) is pressed. You can im- and export snippets (a section that contains it's menu entries), ...
So there are a lot of possibilities to customize your context menus...
Atm I'm rebuilding XYplorer's context menu entries (General - Menus, Mouse, Safety) - Folder Tree... / File List... so they can be used even when you're using:
[x] Configuration | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Show the 64-bit context menu
Long right click on a tab (the underlying script(s) save the tabs that you've closed): Long right click on a file: I'm currently looking for 5 additional beta testers...
- You are a native english (or german) speaker
- You use a recent (preferable beta), scripting enabled XYplorer version
- You know how to take screenshots and write a reasonable bug report (including version information, how to reproduce, etc.)
- You are using "Telegram" https://telegram.org/
or are willing to install (and use) it. I send new versions and accept bug reports over it
- You are a long time forum member
There is still a lot of internal stuff to do! Documentation isn't written yet. I'll answer any questions over telegram
This first round is mainly used to extinguish existing bugs!
So if you're interested, drop me a personal message (including the details how to find you on Telegram)...
