CKS for the Move/Copy/Backup To submenus

Post by bergfex »

In the File menu there are submenus for Move/Copy/Backup To and you can assign them CKS. But they again have submenus, namely Favorite Folders and Tabs.

It would be handy to press a CKS to open a list of the open tabs (or my favorite folders) and choose 01, 02, 03... to move/copy/backup them to this tab without needing to navigate to the submenu.

Nothing important but very convenient. :wink:


BTW: If I assign a CKS to File > Move To and then press it the actual tab is greyed out. But when I switch to another tab and press the CKS again not the actual but still the first tab is greyed out. If I select the command in the File menu everything is fine.

I did not allow KS for the subsubmenus because they don't tell you by themselves what happens when you select an item. Is it Copy To, is it Move To?

That grey out bug will be fixed, thanks! (no mention in history: too easy to fix, too long to explain :wink: )

Yeah, but when I assign a CKS to File > Move To and then press it I also don't see whether it is the submenu for MoveTo or CopyTo or BackupTo.

So a CKS for the subsubmenu wouldn't change the situation, it just would be handy.

No :P It's written in the third item from top: Browse for ****** :)

Sorry for that, Don. You are absolutely right, I really should open my eyes. :wink:

But maybe this argument is better:
You define some UDC for Move/Copy/Backup To for different destinations and assign a CKS to User > Move To. When you press it a list opens where you also can't see whether it is the submenu for MoveTo or CopyTo or BackupTo. Sure, you can also define a caption, but it's only optional... Okay, I see, also this argument won't do it, so I officially give up. :lol:
