Hi Mouser!

I really appreciate discovering your LBC. If you have a chance maybe you could take a look at ExeGo version 3.1.

I don't like tool bars docking every where on my screen (so why am I bothering with LBC?)

I'm using ExeGo and it hides as soon as I choose an application to launch. I even assign the shortcut to a button on my mouse.

What I really like about LBC, is the way I can interact with it, a small icon for categorizing my stuff and then the menu that fall down and let me choose the application I need instead of a bunch of icon that I have to remember or, after a certain time, don't mean anything to me. If it could minimize as soon as I start my application it would be good. Maybe if I could add a text description with the main menu Icon (I can dream!), it would be great.

I don't have to use it as a docking bar but as an application launcher using the shortcut or maybe a top/bottom left/right screen corner sensor.

Finally, if I could drag my application and have LBC take the path, the icon and the name, THAT would be amazing.

Keep up the great work and thanks for reading me.

BTW, your Process Tamer is a killer application that solved a lot of headaches to me!

mouser:
i really need to improve the autohiding features of LBC, and i do plan to make it toggle visibility with a hot key so that should help.

im not sure im completely following all of your requests:

could you explain what you mean?

again, im not sure what you mean -- you can certainly drag items ONTO lbc and lbc buttons.

Thanks for taking the time to answer me.

Would it be possible to assign some text, as a label, to an icon to categorize my... categories  i.e. the logo of Firefox and the mention Internet (user defined) for all my software related to the... internet.

For the toggling visibility, it would be great if LBC was hiding itself (user parameter) as soon as it detect the launch of an application from within LBC.

Thanks again

F.

mouser:
you can add text to icons in launchbar commander:


is that what you meant?

concept1961:
OK! You've got me!

That's effectively what I meant.   :-[

Maybe I should have spent a little more time reading and playing with LBC.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer my request and, most of all for your patience in repeating for the nth times the basics about your LBC.

I really appreciate it.

I just finished my setup and I'm very satisfied of the look and the use of it.

If you ever find a way, if it's not already done (!), to make LBC pop-up on screen at the call of a keyboard shortcut and then disappear (go back in the tray) when I've chosen my application, I would be very satisfied.

Have a great weekend

François
