Hello everyone, A new year has begun and a new SyMenu version comes with it. This release is quite a nice one, introducing some new features along with some bug fixes. The main new feature worth highlighting is the ability to enable customizable tooltips for Windows items. As you know, external executables can appear in SyMenu here and there, for example, when you search for something that exists in the host Start Menu, or when you browse your physical file system through SyMenu. In these cases, SyMenu shows a tooltip containing only the basic information it can easily extract from the file: its full path and name. However, if SyMenu finds a file in the same folder with the same name as the executable and the .tooltip extension, it will open that file in text mode, read it, and use its content to populate the item’s tooltip. For example, if you search for Microsoft Word (the shortcut name) and SyMenu resolves it to its target file (winword.exe), then, if a file named winword.exe.tooltip exists, SyMenu will open it, read it, and use its content as the tooltip for Word. For a clear overview of this new feature, please refer to the manual: https://www.ugmfree.it/manual#Advanced_menu_Options_Menu And if you have any questions, I’m here.
