ineedh3lp Posts: 25 07/05/2012	ineedh3lp Posts: 25 Hello! I would like to ask if it is possible to add in a future version of SyMenu the ability to hide SyMenu items. The reason for this is pretty obvious: I do not want to see certain items but I do not want to delete them from the list either, so the best solution would be to have a function to hide them and, of course, to show them again when needed. I'm thinking something similar to how an item looks in the list when being queued for deletion (italic and stroked). Hidden items could be showed in the list editing panel as italic entries with red text- that would mean they're hidden items. The option to hide an item should be located in the contextual menu or the Item Manager menu together with all the other item options. Thank you!

If an item is hided it won't be shown in the contextual menu... so it is like a deleted item. For which reason you should like to preserve some items that you don't reach in any way? Maybe for backup purpose? In this case I can create a particular SyFolder (named Trash) where the items could be thrown and eventually recovered but they don't pop up into the menu list anymore.

ineedh3lp Posts: 25 08/05/2012	ineedh3lp Posts: 25 Greetings, Gianluca. You're right, if an item is hidden then it won't show in the contextual menu, and it is like a deleted item in that regard, except it's not really deleted and can be easily reactivated any time in the same place. Yes, you could call it backup, but it's more like a filter, temporarily disabling items. The Trash folder idea sounds good, though I think that means actually moving the item there without referencing it's original location. My initial thought was to be able to hide an item and leave it in the same place where it was hidden. There are several benefits: for example if I send my complex and organized configuration to a friend, he can hide whatever applications he is missing and reactivate them later after he installs those applications. All he has to do is re-enable an item and update the application exe. path if needed- the icons, descriptions, URL links and everything else will already be there.

It's a complex implementation but it starts to sound well. I would like to know if other users think that could be a good feature because it is really time spending and I have to move other implementation in the future.

There are far more useful features to address, but of course, the decision is all yours regarding when, how and which feature to implement. Thank you.
