Hi, and thanks again for your plugin.

I wasn't sure, but after intensive tests, I can affirm Monster OSD get (my) Girder stucked !

After a while using Monster, it's everytime the same problem; no more response from girder !

Well, closing girder and starting up again is a solution, but not tasteful.

It's not a girder config problem, since using it without Monster works like a charm.

Any idea ?

Ok. Will test it for memory leaks or something,,,

When's the one coming out (mentioned soon) that has the Volume control bar built in? Just wondered cause i read it 4-5 days ago which also mentioned soon. Just wondered. I love that function.

Hi, your menu is cool. But I don't know how to deal with one problem. When menu ends I need to disable group of keys that navigate menu and enable another group. Could you implement actions OnMenuEnd and OnMenuStart?

[smintman]

Sorry, I've found the same question.

[Marsupial]

smintman, the way I do with any software is the same: I have a group in the top of my GML file that enable the selected groups regarding the existance of a software.

for instance, if I have winamp running, I will enable winamp groups. if its not, I will disable it. Therefore, on every commands I veryfy 24 softwares and enable or disable 24 groups.
I also check focus for some softwares, and some softwares have predecesence on others (zoomplayer takes the remote even if winamp plays)


note:
I run a delayed event every seconds to display the time, and have no problem with CPU load of girder even with that many events triggered, so if you think it would kill your CPU, remember that my duron 900 has less then 1% CPU load with constant group enabling and disabling like that.


Hope that helps.

First off: Thanks for this great plug-in.

I know that you had mentioned that you were planning on including the ability to use bmps or gifs or system icons for menu icons. Was this ever implimented? If so, how is this done?

I notice that the "send to." submenu in monsterosd displays system Icons.

Forgive my ignorance.

Sorry for long silence, I'm highly occupied with my primary job (and my girl :)), so still have no time for making any updates :(
