Re: "move keyboard focus"
.... I appreciate your sharing development issues with your users. Few of my applications' bulletin boards do this.
.... As a TLB newbie, I had expected toolbars to have the same functionality as menus. This misconception has often confused my read of TLB documentation, and colored my wishes for new features. My posts are just one user's voice among many, so best wishes for whatever features you decide to work on. TLB is already head and shoulders above other menu systems I've auditioned for complexity management in science and engineering applications; it is light years beyond anything Microsoft offers.
Re: "You can set the hotkey for menus."
.... I get interesting results from the menu hotkeys I've assigned. For instance, I made Alt+S the hotkey for "TLB Start Menu", and found TLB grabs that hotkey even when Outlook 2003 has the focus (Outlook uses Alt+S for "Send e-mail"). Can anyone share insights into avoiding hotkey conflicts with other applications?
.... I've searched on "hotkey" in TLB's Help and Forums, but was unable to find this topic. Someone please point me there if it exists.
