Scalos - General

Indeed there was a number of small issues all around (like papercuts) but gradually those will be fixed away

I think I found something....

In menu you can create menu options you get by right-click

predefined is for example "Amiga+E" to open "execute dialog": This seems not to work on both 68k and Win Hosted X86

The menu works but not the shortcut pressing the keys

yes great that Deadwood fixes it  it could become a great desktop on all supported platforms including linux

New Teme "Blue" for Scalos 

[OlafS3]

looks good

I am just trying to replicate menu of amigaos and it is possible 1:1 including shortcuts (if they work of course  ). I think with Scalos it is possible to really build up something that looks & feel like many amiga users expect

The preferences are really stable now, no freeze even after longer time. Thank you Deadwood

Another thing I see...

if you select a icon and rightclick you get mainmenu and all perfect (even shown themed). But if you directly rightclick on a icon you get a different menu that is shown not themed and I do not find a option to edit it. Window popup menu can be edited (the same for mainmenu and desktop) but not icon.

Test done on Aros 68k

Glad it's working for you.

I think you need to "unhide obsolete menu entries". See screenshot.

@Deadwood

thanks that did it 

only small idea... I have to activate the menus every time because they are hidden again even after saving. Would be nice if that would be saved too

[OlafS3]

I have found a new feature unknown to me 

In Scalos-Prefs->Filetype->Recognition  you can define the filetypes and on "Action" you define specific context menu for all filetypes defined in recognition (similar to magellan)

there is the same you must show all first (list is only limited)

there is only problem I do not how. If I create a new entry in Recognition it is shown as "new" but I cannot edit the name "new"

and how do I define what def icon is connected? To me it looks like something is still missing there

Scalos_Prefs->Filetype doesn't work well

Scalos_Filetype->doesn't work well


@Deadwood

Scalos_Filetype-> Does not save "Reset To Default"

Scalos-Prefs/Menu Filetype-> Does not save "Reset To Default" and also destroys all other settings. basically resets "all prefs" to default

On which architecture you tested this?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

I was testing the AROS One v1.8, now I will test your standard hosted Linux and Windows version, and let you know

[OlafS3]

@Deadwood

weird... it works on 68k now. Seems to be related to where the new entry is created

also icons are automatically attached by "def_NAME"

I did not found a option to individually do it like on magellan

[AMIGASYSTEM]

On which architecture you tested this?

Done testing with reference ISO, AROS Hosted linux:

Scalos-Prefs/Menu Filetype->save "Reset To Default", no problem

Scalos-Prefs/Menu Filetype-> save "Reset To Default" and also destroys palette preferences (after reboot), Wallpapers, but I think it resets other things too !
