Forum LiberKey

I just want a straight up list view of all the apps I have, with no categories. Is there a way to do this? I found the regular list view with categories, but those are just annoying. I know what the programs are for, I don't need Liberkey telling me what they do.

Hello.

If you just want to see what apps are install, you can see them in the manage portable applications' window :
Liberkey tools => Manage applications => Add/remove programs

I don't see how this is solved. I would also like to just see a plain alphabetical list of apps, no categories. Not for configuration, but for use. It's not very efficient to have an app nested four levels deep with no other app even in the main category.

First of all, Hello and welcome on forums.

There are already many opportunities to launch applications that you want ; whether by keyboard shortcuts, the Recent menu, the Favorites menu or by the research tool with the name of the app.

I'm not certain that developers are ready to directly integrate a special menu to satisfy your desires in the next version, but I add this to the todo list.

For now you can create your own special menu.
With Notepad++ ( Find Notepad++ in my menu)
open Liberkey\LiberkeyTools\LiberkeyMenu\data\Menu\default.xml.
Selected all the text, copy it to the clipboard. Create a new file and glue it the content of the clipboard.
In these new file replace

Code: Select all

<LiberKeyMenu id="root" icon="liberkey.ico" name="LiberKey" tabcaption="no" view="tree" usecache="no" edit="yes">

by

Code: Select all

<LiberKeyMenu id="root" icon="skin:Config.User" name="Sort" tabcaption="no" view="tree" usecache="no" category="no" edit="yes">

Then in Notepad++ Search => Replace =>find what :

Code: Select all

<Category.*>

replace by nothing ; checked regular expression before clicking on Replace all button.
Do the same work with

Code: Select all

</Category>

,

Code: Select all

<HotKey.*>

and

Code: Select all

<Description.*>

if they exists.
Just before the end line add

Code: Select all

</software>

Now save the new file in Liberkey/LiberkeyTools\LiberkeyMenu\data\Menu\ with the name sort.xml.

Closes your Liberkey then reload it.
You've a new menu named sort in it.
At the bottom of these menu, under your apps'shortcut Right click => Sort

Now you've an alphabetical list of your Liberkey 's apps.

Enjoys.
