Hi!

For my case usage, I'd like to have as many as 10 or more Start Menus (each configured as a toolbar), each having their own shortcut to open (Ctrl + Alt + a letter).

However, it seems that the Settings menu only has options to customize 4 Start Menus.

1. Is it possible to customize more of them, as in setting keyboard shortcuts to open them?

2. Failing that, is it possible to open a Start Menu toolbar in any other way other using keyboards shortcuts? (that would work just as well for me)

Thanks!

After further thinking, I believe this could be handled by having a "Master" menu, which would have buttons that when clicked then open my other Start Menus.

Is this feasible?

Thanks

Currently only 4 start menus are supported. Please check Preferences/Start menu, More to set the shortcut for each menu separately. Menus can also be opened by touching one of the screen borders.

Ah, I had hoped the "insert another item" commando could be used to open other menus! Thanks for the response.

Actually, there is another way. Please see this post:

Hey Marko

If I read correctly the thread you sent me, this would allow me to open one of the 4 Start Menus that FastKeys lets you assing a shortcut to, with a different shortcut right?

But not assign shortcuts to say, a 5 or 6th Start Menu (my desired outcome).

Best regards

That's correct. Currently there are only 4 start menus available.
