Item View Help

The item view is where you customize menu items to your needs. 

Drag & Drop

    You can drag items from outside FastOpen and drop it on the Item View. Try dragging from the Start menu, Explorer or FileQuest and see 
    what happens.

General Group

    Name - This is the text that will be displayed in the menu. You can create accelerators for menu items by preceding the designated accelerator
    letter  with '&'.

    Properties - This will open the properties dialog for the item.

File Group

    Use the file group to modify the menu item path. You can type in a path your self or use the two buttons on the right side. Using the buttons you
    can easily pick a folder/file Item. 

    Folder Options - When you select a folder to open you have two additional check boxes. You can open a DOS window instead of opening the
   regular  folder window and you can also open the folder in a double paned Explorer view. Note that you can't have both options selected at the 
    time.

    Send To - Use the Send To item to send the item to various Windows system folders.

    Test - Press the Test button to see how the item run. This is the same like selecting it from the menu. You can also double click the item in the
    tree view to test it.

Open Group

    The open group set defines how the item will open. You can select three modes to open and also assign a wave file to play when you select the
    menu item. 

Startup Folder

    Use this edit box and browse folder button to select a start up folder for the item. This can be handy with some programs.

Arguments Group

    You can define a fixed command line argument for the item or check the 'Prompt for Arguments' check box and FastOpen will prompt you
   every time you select the item from the menu.
