Add ability to promote level of commands and custom commands

[studgeek]

I just installed StartExplorer today and am already using it all the time (thanks :).

With that in mind I would like to promote some commands higher up in the context menu.

I'm think the GUI change for this could be quite simple. Just add a "Menu Level" combo box to the edit dialog that allows the user to select Top, StartExplorer or StartExplorer/Custom Commands.

I think this is sort of related to #1, but the core goal is the opposite (brining the items higher) and I think the GUI/work requirement is much simpler.

Hi David,

thanks for the feedback. Is it only about the custom commands? Or are you talking about all StartExplorer menu items?

I think it would be great be able to promote all of them. In my case I
would like to use Open Explorer/Finder and my custom command "Open
Quicksilver" at the top level. The latter is great on the Mac because
then I can use all my Quicksilver goodness on the file.

In that case, it would be quite difficult to implement. The menu structure of the non-custom commands is defined statically in an xml file, the custom commands are created and placed in the menu at run time. Therefore, it might not be so hard to place the custom commands somewhere else. But for the non-custom command I would have to create them at run time too. Frankly speaking, I don't feel like implementing this feature anytime soon - or at all. Sorry.

But if you would like to do it, go ahead, fork and send me a pull request :-)

Custom would be fine also since the user can always write a custom command that duplicates the non-custom command. Thoughts on just that?

Well, that would be possible, I think. It's still not very high on my personal priority list.

Understood, thanks!

Hi
think of my proposal (see #1 ) integrating the commands of StartExplorer into the Open / Open With items
