These custom features would allow to make an application favorite (executable file, batch file, script, etc.) to become an Alternative menu feature, added to the features described here.
This would used like this:
- open the Alternative menu and select the application or script (the custom item added to this menu)
- as for other Alternative menu features, this would open the regular QAP menu
- then select any item (folder, file, link, etc.) in the QAP menu (including in Live folders content)
This would launch the application or script and pass it the location of the favorite as parameter.
This would allow to build a script for a task that could be applied to any item of your menu. For example:
- a batch file to archive the selected folder
- a VBScript or VBA to attach a file to an Outlook message
- etc.
Let me know in this thread if you see other uses for this type of feature.
