Can you make an option for when you drag and drop a link to a program in the menu config to add the program like if you were to drag and drop an EXE file? I'm looking for an easier way to add and remove programs from this wonderful application.
When I install a program, it creates a desktop icon, and would be nice to be able to drag that into the menu config where I want it and then just delete the shortcut. The way it works now is that it will link to that shortcut, but of course if I delete the shortcut I also lose the SyMenu entry. So I'm thinking if I could drag and drop the shortcut, have it add the entry to the actual linked item so I can delete the shortcut on the desktop.
Just looking for a faster and easier way to add programs on the fly.
!!! This is the best menu app by far and thanks so much for offering it and supporting freeware !!!

Hello nicedreams.
I think you are right. If the shortcut links to a program, why have I to add to SyMenu the shortcut? It's more correct to add the program. In that way SyMenu will be able to add its icon too. Well I have to test this feature (to understand if it's possible to implement it) and in case, you'll find it in next version.
Thanks
Gianluca

Gianluca,
Are you going to be making this enhancement? This is the hardest part for me to deal with right now ... and would be the biggest productivity gain!
Thank you, JC
