Start8 configuration settings window(s)

from Stardock Forums

@ Neil,

Do you think that with with all these additional enhancements and optional configuration settings being added (and honestly, indeed thank you for all improvements and bug fixes - two thumbs up), that it may necessitate there coming a time to do a re-think and re-design of Start8 configuration settings window(s), so as to bring order back to it?  And in doing so possibly bring the separated configuration windows back under one roof?

Or will things remain as they are into the foreseeable future, with there being at least two Start8 configuration windows, one quickly accessible and one not: "Configure Start8..." and "Start8Tweak"?

a curious mind. . . .

regards,

Laurence

The settings in the tweak app are options that most people would not want.  Previously we had them as registry keys only, but it became clear that some customers were unable to change registry keys themselves.  As such a UI was made to make it easier.

We opted not to put them in the main config UI to avoid making it look confusing.

One thing you could do, Neil is to add the shortcut to the Start Menu along with the Start8 shortcut.

I added it manually.
