context menus cluttered

Does anyone know of any "mod packs" that would resolve the problem?

If not, can anyone drop me config names ([*popup menu]) for the following context menus, that appear when ... is clicked:
- site, empty space
- image (that I know already)
- link
- bookmark
- other frequently used...?

Here's an example of only needed commands left. One leave "Add to bookmarks" too but the rest are commands just doubled from other places.

You may find that my Unite Menu at least gives you some ideas. Some sections names that need modifying:

[Document Popup Menu]
[Link Popup Menu]
[Hotclick Popup Menu]

Just search for "popup"

If you're using Opera 11, there will be some new sections or menu items. My menu was designed for Opera 10.63.

Thanks. First set of questions:

1. How to make all the "Internal search with" submenu items appear outside that submenu?
(similar to this case http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b68/Bucic/Opera%20forum/opera_custom_hotclick_menu.jpg)
I'd like to avoid adding the items to the Hotcklick popup menus and alike manually.

2. How to rearrange them / split with separators after the above is done?

Edit:
In the meantime here are the initial results (search with menu not touched yet):

I don't think it was possible with the app (moving search with elements outside) but I asked the author of the app, Alexs, and he told me how to easily do it via ini editing! Big thanks to him!

All done!



The image shows which section of the opera menu ini affect which context menus so you can copy paste whichever you like from my ini attached http://www.mediafire.com/file/480cf97niv7d5rw/standard_menu%20%282%29.ini

The following procedure to modify keyboard setup ini file doesn't work anymore.

1. Go to Preferences - Advanced - Shortcuts and duplicate your current Keyboard setup Renaming it won't change the actual file name of the profile (ini file). Opera standard by default.

2. A new setup ini file will be created. In my case it was ...\profile\keyboard\standard_keyboard (1).ini

3. Use the Notepad++ to edit all the ini files if you want it easier and more readable.

4. Replace each section of your Keyboard setup ini with respective section of my Keyboard setup ini.
I wouldn't recommend replacing your file with mine because I'm not sure how it will affect other versions of opera that the version I used o how it will affect the future updates.

The duplicated keyboard setup ini is completely different. It doesn't even contain strings like [Document Popup Menu]. The ...\Opera\ui\standard_keyboard.ini neither.

It looks like your January 3 post related to menu.ini modifications and not keyboard.ini. Maybe I misunderstand the current problem.

It got all mixed up in my head! Thanks!


confused A new question. I can't locate the menu that pops up when a URL is slected. Not right-clicked but selected. Any tips?

Follow the procedure to modify menu setup:

1. Do this How to edit menu setup in Opera? by Tamil

2. Use the Notepad++ to edit all the ini files if you want it easier and more readable.

4. Replace each section of your standard_menu (1).ini with respective section from my ini.
I wouldn't recommend replacing your file with mine because I'm not sure how it will affect other versions of opera that the version I used o how it will affect the future updates.

I believe tooltips when hovering URLs are hard-coded and not directly accessible via menu.ini. You can modify their appearance in the skin.ini or disable or enable in Advanced > Browsing > Show tooltips based on the Status bar state. It may be possible to add a toggle in the [Hotclick Popup Menu] of the menu.ini to directly change opera:config#UserPrefs|PopupButtonHelp in opera:config but it seems too convoluted (more effort than it's worth)... or maybe I'm too lazy. wink

Edit: Maybe you were referring to the [Link Popup Menu] section of the standard menu.ini. (responses crossed)

The topic has nothing to do with tooltips. I doubt tooltips have even been mentioned here...

Besides, my own image (the big one, second) answers my own question. I forgot. It's [link selection popup menu]

Glad you puzzled it out.
