How to add shortcuts?

(1/3) > >>

Curt:
I have started out somewhat carefully, because I really am an IT anaphabet and don't understand IT-English.

This is my first LaunchBar:

The tree is showing the content of (Win2K) Start > Programs, and Start > Programs > Aux. (:'Tilbehør'), and Start > Programs > Aux > System Tools.

Start > Programs is okay; all the programs are listed.
Start > Programs > Aux. > System Tools, is okay too.
But Start > Programs > Aux is most certainly not okay!

Notice how all these 11 shortcuts are missing from (Win2K) Start > Programs > Aux.:
LauncBar Commander (!!!), PopUp Wisdom (!!), URLSnooper2 (!!), BrowserTraySwitch (!!), MySoftwareFactory (4 programs), ZIPGenius6 (3 programs), GIMP, Paint, Calculator (‘Lommeregner’), Games (‘Spil’) and Communication (Netmeeting, HyperTerminal, etc.).

(As you know, the darker grey (left) is Win, and the lighter (right) is LaunchBarCmd):

- and, no, they are not listed in ‘Programs’ or 'System Tools' either.

Can I add these shortcuts myself?
 

mouser:
i know the problem - it has to do with windows keeping multiple start menu folders, one for the user, and one for all users.

ok so, here is what you should do:
first, as a temporary measure, create a new folder contents menu in the tree and select "StartMenu" from the drop down folder contents list, instead of "AllStartMenu".

now you will have 2 start menu buttons, which combine to show you what you see on your normal start menu.

then in the coming week or so i will correct the behavior to show all from BOTH the all start menu and user start menu, which i thought i already did.

"in the coming week" !!! Wow; That is fast!  'they' usally say 'maybe at next update...'

mouser:
let me pre-empt the reply by someone on the forum and offer this caveat:
one week usually means two weeks
one month usually means five months
one year usually means when the sun burns out

but i do try my best!!

"which i thought i already did."
- well, maybe you did.
I did not follow the manual 100%; I did not choose StartMenu or AllStartMenu from the drop down folder contents list, but I directed the "Root Folder to Display" to  C:\Documents and Settings\Curt\Menuen Start\Programmer\Tilbehør
- so maybe there is nothing for you to correct (except me)??
