1. Improve Email notify plugin

-After clicking on email notify icon Mail list should automatically show *all* mail in *all* accounts. User should NOT need select mailbox from drop down menu and click check.

-In Mail list user should be able to double click on mail message to QUICK VIEW entire message (including headers) in Wordpad as quick way to read.

-In Mail list user should be able to right click and have context menu to DELETE MESSAGE on server before DL. This is very useful because user can delete VIRUS before downloading to local machine.

- In Mail list user should have option to bounce the mail back to the sender as 'anti spam' technique.

2. Allow option for making two-column display for folders with many items

3. Windows folders have different views. One view I use a lot is Thumbnails which allows me to preview my graphics folders easily. I think it would be very powerful to allow TLB virtual folders to display thumbnails for graphics.

4. Add CHECK FOR NEW VERSION on settings menu

5. In Windows some programs can run multiple copies of the same program (example MS Word) Some programs will only run one copy of the same program (example Outlook Express) I think TLB should control if program can run multiple times. Default should be to only allow one copy to run with user option to allow multiple copies to run. If option is to set to only allow one copy then by hovering on TLB icon user can quickly switch the focus from program to program of multiple programs that are running instead of clicking on the task bar. This is very helpful indeed

6. Please add UNINSTALL button onto Settings|About screen

7. For organizing buttons within virtual folders. User cannot select group of buttons. Only one button at time.

I think user should be able to select group of buttons. I think best combination is to follow windows standard

+Shift Click to select group of buttons
+Control Click to select group of non sequential buttons

If user continues to hold down Shift, buttons are moved
If user continues to hold down Control, buttons are copied

Of course these actions should automatically turn off Auto launch on hover

8. Please allow system tray items to be moved into True Launch Bar and system tray turned off. This would be very useful and give the user much better control of system memory usage.

9. Please upgrade system info tab on settings screen. [Image: systeminfo.jpg]

Whoa.... Hold on partner!
This version is a major upgrade in my opinion so one wish at a time Smile

Anyway:

>>7. For organizing buttons within virtual folders.
>>User cannot select group of buttons. Only one button at time.

This is not possible with Windows toolbar sets. Only one selection at a time as I know. If not, i know a genius around here somewhere at TrueSoft Wink

>>8. Please allow system tray items to be moved into
>>True Launch Bar and system tray turned off.

Wrong again. System tray and toolbars are separate things.

>> Please add UNINSTALL button onto Settings|About screen

Why on earth would some1 want to Uninstall this baby Wink

Hey Zero are you operating on only one brain cell or two? Chisato Mishima always summarizes several users wishes for TLB each new version. That way we can keep track of development of the beta version. FYI Zero each request has been accepted by Yuri. Don’t you read the other posts or do you just have trouble remembering stuff.

Listen peabrain, I am going to speak slowly so you’ll get it. Try reading and moving your lips – they say it helps.

7- We ‘know’ you can't do that with windows toolbars that’s why Yuri has said he wants to do it.

8- I wonder if newbies like you even read previous posts – go and look at discussion topic ‘Make VF of System Tray and Make it disappear’ you’ll see that Yuri said that adding the system tray to TLB is what he wants to do. It’s a #### good idea too.

Lastly regarding uninstall – Oh for crying out loud. Every newbie always writes ‘why do you want to do that’ Because it’s standard procedure to provide a simple one step uninstall while doing beta testing - dummy

BTW read the True Launch Bar FAQ. Chisato Mishima wrote it.

Here’s some advice - Next time think then type – it’s much better than the other way round.

I think the FAQ site has been a great help so thanks to Eric and Chisato for doing that.

I agree with Doug that Zoozo should have read the previous posts before writing.

As I recall cmishma has suggested some pretty good improvements and I think Zoozo has been around long enough to know that.

These nine requests are all good and I hope Yuri has the time to include them all.

Take your time we can wait.

All this features I accepted. Some of them need more time, others I'll include in the next version.
