Can I utilize Win 7 Jumplists? - kunkel321 - 01-26-2015

Hi, Is it possible to utilize the "jumplist" functionality of Win 7 Taskbar icons?

Sorry, the jumplists are not supported yet.

Thought I'd follow up on this...  I have Win 10 now.  I thought I saw something about Jumplists in the TLB settings recently, though I can't find it now.  The "drag up on icon" does nothing, but I do see some relevant links if I put Chrome on my TLB bar.

It shows upon "mouse over."  I don't see anything if I mouse over Excel or Word though.  

Is this a Jumplist in the screenshot?

Actually I was remembering seeing something about jumplists somewhere else.

It occurs to me that you could replicate the same effect though. I see that you already allow middle mouse clicks on buttons. Make it so that the middle click can activate a Virtual Folder. Then, I can (for example) have a button for MS Word. Middle click would open a Recent Items menu that is filtered for *.doc* That wouldn't allow pinning like jumplists do--but that's okay. I don't use pinning much anyway.

Also, lots of apps like to use middle clicks. Currently my middle click launches Quick Access Popup. Please consider an option for <Modifer Key> + Middle Click on TLB buttons.

Actually.... I guess it was TLB that I saw that... In TLB Settings > Options > General.
So is it possible to enable this for Word and Excel?

Try to create the shortcuts directly to the EXCEL.EXE and WINWORD.EXE. I guess jump list will work for direct shortcuts.

I think it is a direct link (?)  See img.   I created it by dragging the actual excel.exe file onto TLB.

Yes, this is the direct link. So aren't there jump list on this shortcut?

There doesn't seem to be.  Here is a screenshot with 'mouse over'

It is checked, yes.

EDIT:  I'm not sure if it matters, but things that *do* display jumplist items include:
-Chrome browser
-Affinity Designer
-IcoFX

Things that do not, include: 
-Word
-Excel
-Directory Opus.  

Of the above items, IcoFX is 32-bit, the rest are 64-bit.  I can test more apps if you want.
