Middle mouse button - customisable popup menu

[worm6666]

would be not good for example to popup menu with some basic commands ? MOVE, COPY, DELETE (customizable) ?

because if You have hiddable tray panel on windows and 4K monitor, it is pain to walk every time down to buttons or up to toolbars and select action... especialy if You walk too far down and windows tray opens - then You should wait a moment to it hides and then slowly move to the desired action button...

(p.s. can the bottom action panel be a little higher ? bigger primary buttons ?)

Maybe you can add required buttons to the vertical buttonbar between the panels?

not so good solution - then You should still move somewhere and click there... not in place of cursor... My idea is to have tools (commands) by hand...

You can use QAP
https://www.quickaccesspopup.com/
Define a Macro snippet sending the required TC keys and set the mouse buttons you like as hotkey.
{F6} for example sends F6 and starts the TC Copy dialog.

looks nice... perhaps will try if too lazy

[MVV]

Well, there is a keyboard that is always near your hands: F5 - copy, F6 - move, Del/F8 - delete...

Also you can add actions for all files using internal associations, e.g. add internal association for * and a Copy action with command like %COMMANDER_PATH%\Addons\TCFS2\TCFS2.exe /ef tcm(905), and you will see Copy item in context menu opening Copy dialog. Don't forget to enable Load extra commands from all matching types option in internal associations dialog.

sorry - I would not open this thread if there is no need for the popup menu - sometimes You don't have the other hand... (eat, drink, hold girl ) - anyway - I see it useful... sometimes the KB is joking, sometimes not working... sometimes You simply cannot press the F keys... but most of time lost is by waiting on windows tray to hide

May this button can be of help:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cm_ShowRemoteMenu

wcmicons.dll,74
Open Menu with Common Tasks

0
2930

To make the button:
1. Mark the green text above (click SELECT ALL).
2. Copy it to the ClipBoard (press Ctri+C).
3. Right click on TC's buttonbar and choose "Paste".

nice try - but the need is the use of middle button without walking to other country on monitor with 4K resolution... the menu should pop-up on the cursor position (mouse pointer)...

but very nice... will remember for some case... thank You.

p.s. To point also on the positive of this button - I have created blank space between normal icons from left and this one button - so it is now far away from standard icons - and now when I want to copy or move something - I try to go upside on the screen - also windows tray menu doesn't pops-up (the waiting of hidding tray menu problem) - because nothing opens from upper side of the screen

WT actual F?

If you for example choose Copy, Move or Delete from that menu it works on the selected files, or the file under the cursor if nothing is selected

So with this command assigned to any Fx key in TC
I can make a QAP macro snippet assigned to the middle mouse button which will show that menu.
Thats what the thread starter wants

petermad,
I understand what it does, I just wasn't aware of the existence of such a menu.

I read

WT actual F

as: With The actual File.

But now I guess it meant: What The actual F*ck.
