I'll be honest with you, I've never discovered how to do that! Everytime I
right click, no matter where, I get the main menus up. (Via Magic Menu)
All I was trying to say was that I'd like to see something like that built
into the new Amiga O/S. So, for instance, all the system menus would be at
top of the screen. Open a drawer and clicking at the top of it would bring
up some 'action' menus whilst clicking on an icon would bring up more
specific menus!
I guess I'm after Dopus, Tools Daemon and Magic Menu built in! Wouldn't that
be good? Take all the best add on's, find out why they're so popular and
build them in! Ok, so we want to shy away from bloating the O/S too much,
just be sensible. Everyone likes to customise their computers so give them a
good starting point where they can do as much as possible from the mouse and
then allow them to add to it, a la Tools Daemon! Sort of a "Here's your new
O/S, it works straight out of the box! When you are comfortable with it,
here's how to add to it!"
Richy.
