Menus

Menu is the primary feature of True Launch Bar. You can create menus of any complexity and dimensions. All True Launch Bar menus belong to one of these two types:

Regular menus. TLB creates the regular menus on the toolbar. The content of the menu loads when the toolbar is run (when the system starts.) This menu type is perfect for shortcuts to frequently used programs and for plugins.

Virtual folders. These menus display the content of any folder on your computer as a menu. That can be My Documents, My Computer, Control Panel or any other folder. The content of the virtual folders loads only when you access to the virtual folder menu for the first time. That will take some time during the first time you open it. However, that saves the system startup time and saves the CPU resources. If you want the content of a virtual folder to load when TLB is run, right-click on the virtual folder, then select the Appearance item, and then enable the Load on Startup option.

Creating menus

To create a new menu, right-click on the TLB toolbar or on another menu, then point to New, and then click on the Menu item. The menu creation wizard will not only help you create a new menu but also help you set the basic options for it.

On the first page of the wizard, enter the menu title. The title must comply with the file naming rules, i.e. in the titles you must not use these characters: \ ? / | : * > <.

To create a virtual folder, click on the Browse... button and then select the folder, the content of which you want to see as menu. You can also type the full path to the folder in the edit box. Or you can click on the Predefined button to select one of the predefined folders on the list that appears:

My Computer Option

Clicking on any of these menu items will fill in the name fields and folder paths with the necessary values.

If you want to leave the rest of the settings unchanged, simply click Finish. Or click Next to edit the other menu options.

Choose View Mode of Menu

On the next page, choose the view mode and the number of columns to appear on the menu.

Next, select the size for the menu items (see also Icon Sizes).

To complete the creation of a new menu, click Finish. At any moment, you can also click Cancel to decline the creation of a new menu.
