Installation Notes
If any problems are encountered I suggest moving/backing up your existing settings and then starting RadialMenu. Doing this will reset RadialMenu to it's default install state. Settings are located at "C:\Users\COMPUTERNAME\AppData\Local\RadialMenu". The entire folder can be moved or deleted and RadialMenu will generate a new one as well as a new settings file.

Basic Usage

RadialMenu runs as a tray icon, right clicking the icon in the system tray will bring up a menu enabling access to the settings dialog as well as the option to exit the application.

With a fresh install RadialMenu will have the default menu that is used for all applications that aren't associated with a specific profile, initially no buttons will be visible as they are NOT preset to an action but are disabled. Disabled buttons won't appear on the live menu at all.

Customizing RadialMenu/Toolbar
Once in the settings dialog RadialMenu and the Toolbar will be in 'Designer Mode' where you can customize the menus, buttons, and create/edit application profiles. Right click on a button to access it's settings. This works the same in both RadialMenu and the Toolbar.

Activating/Displaying RadialMenu
By default RadialMenu can be activated by pressing CONTROL + SHIFT + Z or CONTROL + MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON. This can be changed in the settings/options window. Note that after changing the activation hotkey you have to exit/restart radialmenu for it to take effect. Checking the 'DoubleClick' button will cause RadialMenu to activate when the chosen mouse button is double clicked.

The Toolbar has a button exclusively for toggling radial menu. Right clicking on the button brings up the options/settings menu.

Using Windows Flicks To Show/Hide RadialMenu
Windows Flicks are customizable. Control Panel -> Pen and Touch -> Flicks. Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms694980(v=vs.85).aspx

If you click the 'Navigational flicks and editing flicks' radio button you can customize what they do. You can use existing commands, or custom hotkeys.

RadialMenu already will intercept these keys if you set your Keyboard Trigger in RadialMenu to the same thing as the flick. For example, the 'Print' flick command will send 'Ctrl + P' as a backup appcommand. If RadialMenus' keyboard trigger is set to 'Ctrl + P' then that flick will show radial menu.

Right Mouse Button Activation/Context Menu
If the right mouse button is used by itself for activation RadialMenu still allows access to the standard right click system/shell menu by way of some workarounds:

1. Activate radialmenu away from your right click target, then right click your target while radial menu is still displayed.
2. Right click "through" radial menu if you are accurate enough to do it in the space between the buttons.
3. Hold down control or shift and then right click your target.

 

Looks awesome! I can't wait! I just discovered your Radial Menu last night and I've been playing around with it a lot. It's awesome! Thanks so much! I hope microsoft eventually adds functionality for customising the pen buttons on the surface pro 3, so that I can trigger it just with the pen.

 

Do you think you could add the ability to rearrange the buttons on the toolbar? And also allow them to keep their positions if new rows or columns are added?

 

Is this the same member that issued the other Radial Menu?

Dude! Clint man, you're insane! Can't wait to test it out!

 

Yup

 

I should be able to set that up already, i'll see what I can find out. If anyone wants to send me a surface for uh, 'development reasons' I'm more then happy to accept it.

Rearranging them is something I'd like to do at some point in the future. I actually started with the ability to drag them anywhere you want but changed it so it was more grid like instead. As far as keeping there positions, I could do that

That's really crazy... Started using it more and more and with your fix for x64 app it's gonna be perfect.
I've also install TouchMe gesture Studio just to be able to to trigger the radial Menu with touch gesture, and i finally reach a very good workflow for drawing in Photoshop and Sketchbook pro with no keyboard at all...
It's pretty amazing.
Thanks a lot for your hard work.

 

Touch gesture/input support is something I'd like to add eventually.
