Moderators big_daddy Posted March 20, 2007 Author Moderators Share Posted March 20, 2007 Nice! Very cool. And useful! Btw, what theme is that? Looks nice.The theme I use is Noia 2.0 (eXtreme). However I packed all the menu icons myself, and tried to make it flow with the theme nicely.Very Nice Bob!!!I dragged it and it installed in 1 second.... Works GREAT!!!I wondered where you've been hiding... lolNice addition to your quality work!8)I've been real busy lately, college courses, web pages, work...Congrats!!! this is a MUST HAVE for all the autoit comunity!!! BTW I don't see any icons As mentioned above I tested this with the Noia 2.0 (eXtreme) theme. It appears that some themes do not support the menu icons.Really nice. I see the buttons just fine. Maybe you should try to integrate the RSS into the forum categories I haven't looked into the RSS Readers yet, but that is on the to do list.---Thank you all!

AutoItKing Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I wasn't using the new theme before and the icons didn't show up. But now they do.

Moderators big_daddy Posted March 21, 2007 Author Moderators Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Could you move it down when you mark something and right click? Maybe below the line?If you look in ".\content\autoit\autoitOverlay.xul" you will find the following line (I will explain this further below). <menu id="autoitmenu" label="AutoIt" accesskey="A" insertafter="context-stop"> You can change "context-stop" to a different context id, or you can completely omit the "insertafter" command to place it at the bottom. I wasn't using the new theme before and the icons didn't show up. But now they do. Might be something to look into.I did some more research and found two classes (menu-iconic & menuitem-iconic) that enable menu icons for specific menus. This is included in the new version, thanks. This is awesome. Is there anyway to see the code so that I could try doing this for other programs?Yes, xpi files are just zip files with a different extension. I would suggest installing 7-Zip and using that to open/edit the extension. Inside the xpi file there is a jar file which is also just a zip file, this is where most of the content you will need to edit is. --- Uploaded new version (v1.0.1) which fixes the icons not showing in most themes. --- Thank you all again!
