feature request for start8

from Stardock Forums

I would like to set an action when I click on the start8 flag with the mouse wheel (center button). I have a multitouch notebook and I would like to open the windows 8 menu clicking with two fingers (which corresponds at a wheel click)

 

thanks!

We will add it to the list of requests for activation methods.

Given the various requests we may have to see about making an advanced dialog to configure them all!

I subscribe this 100%. I want the ability to open start menu via mouse click or even right click.

In Start8 1.03 and higher a middle button click on the start button opens the Windows 8 menu which I think is what you were looking for?

I want to right click to open windows 8 menu and not middle-click. For laptops is much easier using right click then middle-click.

 

thanks

yep it's a step forward but what about for it to be fully configurable?

thanks for the work you all are doing ;)

How about a way to snap an open window to top half desktop, bottom half desktop, left half desktop, right half desktop, top left desktop corner (1/4 page), top right desktop corner (1/4 page), bottom left desktop corner (1/4 page), and bottom right desktop corner (1/4 page).

Grab the window and slide it to the position user wants.
