Proteron MaxMenus v1.1 Updated Today On Mac OS X
Adds powerful, flexible menus to simplify tasks
MaxMenus is a brand shiny new utility that adds powerful, flexible menus to simplify using Mac OS X. Always available in the corners of your display, the menus offer unparalleled ease-of-access to your most commonly used applications, documents, folders, volumes, preferences, and... well, you get the idea.
MaxMenus can be customized to your heart's content, configured to meet your every desire. You can build a menu out of any items you want and put it wherever you want. In just a few moments of set-up you can streamline OS X to fit your work habits. With MaxMenus installed you have Mac OS X finally working for you.
MaxMenus also offers the power to link any item on your computer to a key combination. And yes, it's very easy to set up. Just press the key combo while your mouse is over a menu item, presto, the task is done! So go all out and configure every shortcut you want. F8 for iPhoto. F9 for iTunes. F12 for the Terminal. You can even assign key combinations to your menus from the MaxMenus preference pane. Try pressing Option-Apple-Tab when you're done with the MaxMenus install.
We knew MaxMenus wouldn't be complete without support for drag-and-drop. So we took it all the way. The menus you set up in MaxMenus fully support spring loaded drag-and-drop. You'll be moving and copying files, making aliases, and opening every document with your favorite application when MaxMenus is installed. It's rumored to be coming in Mac OS X 10.2, but spring loaded is here today in MaxMenus.
What's New:
- "Menubar empty area" is now an option for the menu corner / trigger
- Added the ability to drag and drop into a menu activated by a hot-key
- Pressing G with the mouse down over any item will "grab" the item and start dragging it FROM the menu
- Added a Dock Feature to change the Finder in the Dock when Classic has been started
- Items can now be dropped into a folder whose label is visible by dropping onto the label itself
- Doesn't show aliases to folders with "Documents are hidden"
- Drag and drop onto aliases was broken
- Fixed Finder Dock menu's localization (1.0.1 introduced a bug that ignored the strings file)
- Items in a menu wouldn't work if they were replaced but their name stayed the same
