New: CuteMenus

Flexer · Post by **Flexer** » November 7th, 2003, 10:49 am

This is my first extension and you can get it from http://cute.mozdev.org .
Here are some screenshots:

Planned features are

Options panel
Ability to remove (hide) specific menuitems using simple gui
Easily select (from gui) which menuitems should have icons and to be able to change the icon (you can now change them using WinZip)
Different icons for disabled items

The only problem I have is that I don't know how to make it change the icon when item is disabled or just making the icon not so visible, I'll appriciate any help in this direction.

Huh...this is a very nice extension that sorta came out of the blue. Never realized how out of place the ugly context menus were until I saw this. Keep up the good work ^_^

I wonder which is more important, that this extension works well and makes Firebird a bit nicer looking, or that the extension is properly named?

Either way, thanks to the author thereof.

I put together a package with qute icons, if anyone is interested...all it really is is just qute icons packed in the same package, I didn't change anything else.

I'm not sure how to set up the direct install so for now you can save it to disk from here: Qutemenu.

Excellent work on this extension. It adds a nice touch of completeness to the browsing experience.

GANTmenu

Changed to use the GANT iconset. I also changed the install.js since it didn't want to install into my profile with the original one.

I think this is one of those extensions that needs to be incorporated into the finished browser.

Whther is is or not, you have certainly added to the collection of extensions I install on each nightly.

Thanks

This is a great extension, yes! It it until you see something working that you realised it was missing before...
Extra work for the themes designers though... I wouldn't want the context menu icons set not matching my favorite theme icon set! (Gorilla on my linux box!)

A great idea Flexer!

When my project is approved on MozDev I'll add more functionalities at the extension and provide various icon packs.

PS. Whats wrong with the CuteMenus name ?

Let me be the 2nd to whole-heartedly suggest that this get into the core code and not stay an extension. This rocks! And I think the other poster was complimenting you by saying that the name is actually good in that it accurately describes what this extension is. Anyway, good work.
