Agree - I can never remember all of the special combinations so, to me, they don't exist. A context menu is much, much, much better. I'd vote for using the "Plus" key for context with whatever its current function (again, cryptic affordance so I've no idea) as the first option in the list so all people have to do is one extra click for the existing functionality and a slight scroll for all of the others. Adding in user ability to configure/customize the features listed in the context menu would really make it sing. -- dwilliams01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dwilliams01's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43760 _______________________________________________ jive mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/jive
