Hotkey to bring out favorites menu?

Post by TsunamiZ »

Is there a hotkey to bring out the favorites menu? Example: In my web browser, it's ALT+A. Thanks.

Real menus & fake menu

Post by Clo »

:) Hi !

- AFAIK, nope !

- In the Web browsers, the “Favourites” menu is an item of the menu-bar, hence a short cut can be set.
- In the browser of XnView, this menu doesn't belong to the menu-bar…
• Moreover, only the two upper items you can see displayed are parts of a real menu in the resources of the programme, thus one can set hot keys for them.
- The rest - I mean the dirs to browse - are not menu-items, but entries in an INI file lost somewhere in the Application Data\… …\XnView, and so- named <bookmark.ini>. :|
- This prevents to set hot keys for these entries, and even if you get underlined letters, that doesn't work anyway.
I requested a change of that odd system to Pierre several times yet, unsuccessfully…
- Worse : the <bookmark.ini> values for all versions of XnView you may have in the same partition… At least, a separate file in each version-dir should be desirable, I guess…
