hello

I want to make default windows like menus, check this image out to know what I mean: Image
So I figured you'd make them with active system box, but I didn't find the option to do so. I don't want to draw things like that, so surely, there is an extension to make your apps to look like that.

Second thing is customizing pre defined things for new apps, such like 256 colours, no debugger, no menu. I hate to change all the settings when I make a new app. Anyone knows where to change these?

Last but not least, why does the default menu with apps glitch so much? If I remove everything and make my own menu, it still functions like I paused the app / disabled sound etc, even the hotkeys are working even if I removed them.

Thanks.

PS: sorry for the lazy like post / errors, I wrote a better post but for some reason it was vaporized and I needed to start over.

1.) What are you talking about? What has an active system box got to do with menus?
2.) Don't be so damn lazy. It takes about 2 minutes. The rest of your app is gonna take a *lot* longer to make.
3.) Try removing the shortcut key associations *before* you remove an item from the menu...

Look, I'm not an native English speaker so I can't express myself correctly. Don't answer if you are going to be no help.

1 ) Oh and I mean those lines. I'll take more screenshots to show what I mean:
Image

2 ) Lazy or not, I asked if it's possible, not being called a lazy. If somebody knows if this is being done by editing mmf2 reg/ini's or similar let me know.

3 ) Don't you think I've tried that? Fool. I was merely asking if somebody else has similar problems, but I quess I'll re-install.

Why do you have to post if you are going to call me lazy? You want dc points? Why would almost a 30 yr old want them? Bloody brits!


Well, hope I can get help now. Sketchy don't bother posting unless you can help me with these problems

Dude, you need to chill out.
Insulting people is not going to make anyone want to help you.

1.) I understand what you mean now.
If you have MMF2eveloper then yes, there is a dialog extension - otherwise no, you'll have to fake it with a few background system boxes.

2.) Fine. No, it's not possible.

3.) I'm not psychic. How am I supposed to know what you've already tried if you don't say?

Alright, thanks for helping, especialyl with part 1.
I am going to try that dialog extension.

Oh and yeah I was a bit uptight, sorry about that. I kinda lost my mind when my earlier post vanished, which explained things a lot better

PS: I knew that "don't post" works, after all, we are humans, eh?
