Context menu item for Bing Pic of the Day #278

Closed Riversiderepeat closed 1 year ago

Riversiderepeat commented 1 year ago

I don't feel too bad for asking for this because I know it would take only a moment to implement.

I use Bing Image of the Day on everything from my Roku screen saver to backgrounds of various devices. On most of them there is no option to look up what the image is and where. It would be cool to have a right click menu item in GSD that simply opens Bing's image of the day page so we can read about what it is what we're looking at.

All that would ever need to be done to maintain it is change the web address whenever Bing does, which as far as I know isn't very often.

?

Hello, I remember I've implemented something like that, although maybe I'm missing the link for the image info... There is a quiz link though: image So extending this menu with the correct link would help, right? :)

I never thought to look for it in the main menu, but yes, it would be cool if there were a link to the actual info. I was actually thinking it makes more sense (at least to me), if it's in the context (right click) menu, when right clicking directly over the image?

Hello, Well, context menu over the image may be an issue. You see, some group layouts doesn't provide any free space to click (each right click will land on a dial). So it would work only when using Dynamic layout or something similar (where you can right click and not hit any dial).

In any case, I've implemented it now so the Bing info link will be in the main menu and also the context menu: image

It will be available in the next release 23.2, but I have a few more features to implement so this will take a week or so.
