Suggestions for CirMenu app improvements #5

Open cheuk-cheng opened 4 weeks ago

cheuk-cheng commented 4 weeks ago

Hi. I have tried CirMenu app from AppStore and I am wondering if there is a way to automatically show an app's menu items that I have already set up instead of showing global menu items first and I have to press a key (like "s") to switch the app's menu items every time. Also, can the trigger key be mapped to multiple keys? E.g. users who use Hyperkey or Karabiner-Elements can map their caplock key to control-command-option-shift as a meta-key so it will be nice for CirMenu to support a meta-key trigger. Finally, it will be helpful if CirMenu can optionally read all top-level menu items of a user selected running app in the future so that user can select the app's built-in menu items from a list instead of manually entering things like menu item name, menu item shortcut key, etc. Thanks.

HI,

———— I am wondering if there is a way to automatically show an app's menu items that I have already set up instead of showing global menu items first and I have to press a key (like "s") to switch the app's menu items every time.

For current version, the default trigger key for global menu is [option],which can be config in global Menu trigger config,

the default trigger key for App menu is [command]. can be config in setting trigger menu. QQ_1731288300836

Note， Global trigger method is higher priority if the set is duplicated.

———— can map their caplock key to control-command-option-shift as a meta-key so it will be nice for CirMenu to support a meta-key trigger.

As i know this can't be down for a sandbox Appstore app. because of Apple's restrictions。

——————it will be helpful if CirMenu can optionally read all top-level menu items of a user selected running app

I have also thought about it . It seems also can not make it because of Apple's Appstore restriction.

If you find any App in App Store can do these tow things above. Let me know. thanks.

QQ_1731458832528 These settings will trigger the app's menu. If the trigger method is not duplicated with Global Menu setting(config here as below) . QQ_1731458928829

Note, when "show global menu when App's unset" switch is ON. If the the current App's menu is totally empty, will show global menu . QQ_1731458960068
