Hi!!

I got bad news for u all :(

The Embedded thing does not work correctly....the embedded form is flickering, because MP is rendering/refreshing screen the whole time even when there is nothing to render.

I think flickering is not the way to use it. So i stop this part of the plugin, maybe there is an other way without modifie the whole render core 8)

Greatz Ari

    MultiShortcuts:

    - What is it: Plugin to call external programs with preset parameters.

    - Can use it's own menu list to call various programs: Yes (by creating a "submenu" in Home plugin configuration and dropping the plugin instances in there - and in root at the same time if needed)

    - Can work (call program/s) directly from home: Yes

    - Method to add parameters: create windows shortcut with the parameters needed and call the shortcut instead of the program itself

    - Can use custom "button" names: Yes (set in plugin's configuration)

    - Extras: Can minimize MP during external program execution, can call anything that can be called from windows (like .scr, .bat etc.)

    - Ease of use: 7/10 (lower than it could since it involves copying the dll for each program called and then running -once for each program "installed"- a program that assigns an ID to the instance)

    - Minus: developer doesn't plan to update it any more, a hack (if anybody cares - I don't)

    The bold marked part is what I use it for (starting screensaver) and I would like to have that "MyProgramsLight" plugin as the Multishortcut will no longer be updated. So thanks for your effort and I am looking forward to that plugin 8) .

    TNDAri I need to get a copy of your full source with for EasyApps with the Resources and Properties directories populated. I've made some upgrades to EasyApps wanted to compile it without having to modify the windows forms to remove the images.
