- Short: Intuition Menu Replacement V5.3
- Author: blg@cherry-semi.com (Brian Gontowski)
- Uploader: blg@cherry-semi.com (Brian Gontowski)
- Version: 5.3
- Type: util/wb
-
- - Replaces most of the Intuition and GadTools menu code.
- - Provides 3D appearance on NewLook screens using pens from Palette
- Preferences.
- - Automagically lays out all the menus to conform to the Amiga Style Guide,
- shifting and making columns when needed.
- - Tricks are used on the menus to figure out where separator bars should
- be and when someone is using "stupid checkmarks" (either using "*" or
- changing the color).
- - The menu panels revert to Topaz 8 if they don't fit with the screen font.
- - Menus that "fall off the edge" are not displayed.
- - Disabled menus with items and disabled items with subitems are shown with
- some highlighting. I believe this should be correct since there is still
- some action taking place (a panel is being displayed).
- - Multiselected items are shown pushed in as a visual cue that there are more
- than one item selected. This will never happen with an item with subitems.
- - The menus may be toggled on/off for each click of the right mouse button
- or the keyboard equivalent.
- - Double Menu Requesters (Yuck!) are supported.
- - PopUp menus are supported. The mouse pointer will always start at the
- top/left corner of the menu (shifting as required).
- - Arrow keys move around the menus, items, and subitems.
- - Return and Esc function as accept/cancel.
- - Space functions as left mouse button.
- - Quick keys are chosen automatically and allow easy access to menu items.
- - Panel delay helps speed up moving around menus and avoids accidently
- choosing the incorrect panel.
- - Help text available either through Intuition or GadTools.
- - A "Enhanced NewLook" is available for 8 or more color screens.
-
- * keymap.library is now checked for version 36 instead of 39.
