Hey Mattwire,

I've found some things that I need clarification on.

1. I can't figure out how to get the L/R mouse buttons to select the desired line within the OSDs. I can use the cursor and mouse buttons, to select, and the Left/Right executed OSDs displayed, but I cant' figure out how to 'get/assign' the selected line to that 'click'. (because of this, I'm curently only using 0-9 to execute/select the lines (which brings me to the next issue.)

In the sample Group the Mattwire provides, There is reference to a 'lrexecmenu.ini' (this reference is for when the mouse buttons are clicked, and resides within the osdmenu directory), BUT there is no .INI named this.

This could be (or most likely is why) I can't get the mouse button to select the lines in the OSD, other than the acknowledgment that the buttons have been pressed.

I've got Girder working beautifully with the Creative Labs mini remote (credit card sized) with multiple 'shift' keys for the functionality of most larger remotes, but without their bulkiness. The OSDmenus are coming along nicely as well, but only if I can work out these particulars.

Thank for the help in advance! This forum is truly wonderful with all the ingenious persons that are a part of it!

Sincerely,

Van Renier

Hahah! it was alot easier than I thought.
It might not be the way it was intended, but it works fine for me.

I copied the provided left/right functions for the mouse buttons, and changed them from having a simple OSD to pressing the keyboard RETURN key (enter), this works for me.

If anyone can see a problem with this implementation, please let me know.

RE: lrexecmenu.ini
I still don't know what this was intended for (if at all needed).
