· Popup command bar by holding menu key or pressing shift+menu or pressing some other custom key.
· Enable navigation let the 5-way key functional on command bar.
· Controls the display time of command bar pops up, being navigated and showing command feedbacks.
· Up to 4 icons can be added to command bar to launch applications, control panels or DAs.
· Three type of shortcut support (two position-based and user custom).
· Installs as a preferences panel.
What's New in This Release:
· Since this version, two kinds of shortcut support are added, and you can enable either one as you wish. The position-based shortcut let you use qw to the two leftmost existing icons and ertyuiop to the total 8 positions in command bar. The user custom way let you set your own shortcut keys for the 4 added icons. And there are 8 build-in keys (cxpdusbi) for system added icons. When command bar pops out, the menu shortcut begin to available; since they are overridden by the new command bar shortcut, you can hold the keys or press shift+key to trigger the original function.
· Besides, CommandBar now looks for the TAIB 1200 resource from the launched application first, and then the small application icon bitmap (TAIB1001); which means you can custom your icon displayed in the command bar. All you have to do is add a TAIB 1200 bitmap resource into the application. Some free software (i.e. Bird) can do this.
