Hi Thom,

Is this tool for those developing scripts or for users to manage plugins that incorporate this tool?

Sorry for the dumbass question? But Ruby and me are like peanuts and chewing gum. We don't mix!

Both.
I found the need to make a UI manager for my Selection Toys plugin. And I figured I might want to do the same for other plugins. So I made this single library which multiple plugins can use without having to rewrite the same code.

It also means that any plugin that implements the UI Manager in this package will allow the users to add/remove items from the menus and toolbars. Note, it#s only add and remove, not move things freely around.

Not much for end users here unless a plugin told them to download this package.

TT_PLuginmanager was the old name of TT_Lib, which an old version of Selection Toys used. Download an updated version of both.
Why did you suddenly get that error now?

pilou

Because I have this message for many months but not taken the time to managed it
Works fine now except the Window UI that I can't scroll inside!
As don't possible scrolling I can't have all lines show even in resize the window
You have a lot things inside ! I can Open Close some item like Tools Menu, Context Menu
So I can see 22 vertical icones

What IE version do you have installed?

TIG

Can't you resize the window by dragging the bottom edge down ?

pilou

Yes I have not IE7
Normally no need

about the "what page"
page = screen

I you can place your "TT plugs" on the end of the top heros Script (as like in a sea port)
that will be terrific
Now you are on the end of the second page (screen)
As SU has not "page down" just the black triangle pressed, that is very painful!

pilou

That you see is my full screen on my 17 inch !
So don't resize more!

TIG

I mean resize the dialog's window !

You still have IE6?
And a million web-developers cried out in pain!

Update your IE to IE8. Even if you don't use IE as your browser - there are many applications that use the IE platform, such as SU with it's webdialogs.

As for the position of the menu item - .rb files are loaded in order of their file names. rename tt_0000_menu.rb to something like 0000_tt_menu.rb and I think you're good to go.

pilou

Yes it's the disavantages of the monopoly system if you don't want use it!
That is the first time that I am blocked

I will try your 000 number but for respect of your previous friends I will give a more hight number!

If you sort the files in the Plugins folder by name you can see the load order. Name the file to whatever you want to control where it appears on the menu, just make sure it loads before the rest of the tt_*.rb files.

pilou

Thx for the precision!

TIG

Starting a file name with # loads before any numbers/letter start...
