Hi there,
I have become a real fan of the horizontal main menus and of
EtoileMenuServer. However, what bothered me was that on right-clicking
the application only real context menus are poppimg up, but no longer
the main menu, which is feature I also used a lot.
Thus, i have hacked NSApplication+Hackery to enable this. In my hack i
create a temporary vertical copy of the horizontal main menu to pop up
beneath the mouse pointer. For those who are interested in this (and I
believe some of you are) I attach the patch for this. The patch is
against the latest SVN.
Cheers,
Andreas
