sl23 Posts: 285 23/01/2016	sl23 Posts: 285 I wondered if it would be possible to add either a global theme option for certain SyItems or maybe, which might be preferable, options within each SyItem. For example, folders could do with being displayed in bold text so as to stand out a bit more. A global theme option would allow this. Or, maybe better for some users, each SyItem can have the option to display text underlined, bold, italic or a mixture of those. The second option, per item, would also allow you to further add a colouring system, as file managers do, so apps of certain types are displayed in different colours. Internet apps display in blue, while graphics displayed in green. Or, maybe, favourites could be both bold and yellow. Is that feasible? Do other users like the idea? What do you think Gian? Also, Could the little arrows to the right of categories be allowed the option to colour? I use a dark grey background and they're hard to see. Lastly, I'd like a tooltip to show the version number of each app, perhaps this could be gleaned from the xx.x.x.sps.VERSION file? Obviously this method would mean apps not in sps format wouldn't display version numbers. Unless there's a more thorough way? Thanks Scott

Unfortunately drawing every single element with different colors and/or styles is too demanding and we risk to reduce performance. What performance? You could ask. SyMenu is a highly performance program, I really doubt that you as a user ever observed a drop in performace. Well the reason for this SyMenu reactivity is that Tom exists. Thanks to Tom, one of our user, I discovered that SyMenu could be loaded with more than 2.800 items - I'm not joking, Tom's got more than 2.800 elements in his menu - and his SyMenu didn't die, but the performance was suffering a lot. With the last two versions I worked really hard to make possible and highly reactive even a 2.800 items menu. I don't want to lose this incredible target with demanding operations on every single item. Second question: what if a user like Tom doesn't customize the colors and styles? The performance suffers the same because the code to customize the item is there even if ineffective. Right arrow on SyContainer. I'll try to make them more visible with dark themes, but I don't know if it is possible. Version on tooltip. Yes it's possible and necessary with the new SPS programs.

sl23 Posts: 285 26/01/2016	sl23 Posts: 285 OK I see what you mean. How about a compromise, and just bold font for folders that shouldn't add any strain on performance should it? The last two are probably more important anyway, so that would be enough. Thanks Gian. edited by sl23 on 26/01/2016
