Ever since the beginning I have been trying to figure out how to get the second command to work that one sees in the ideskrc file and all the documentation. After futzing around for a long time, I seem to have established one fact: only the left mouse click is functional.
Check out this thunar.lnk
Code: Select all
table Icon
Caption:
Icon: /usr/share/icons/Moka/48x48/apps/thunar.png
X: 100
Y: 360
Command[0]: thunar
Command[1]: mx-idesktool
end
It will will work if I set the second command up like this in the ~/.ideskrc file
Code: Select all
Execute[0]: left singleClk << this is how we have it
Execute[1]: control left singleClk
Problem remains: clicking for Execute[1] raises both mx-idesktool
and thunar = Execute[0]. Still, that's a major step forward. The goal is to have left single click bring up thunar, control left single click (or something else) mx-idesktool only. I will continue to fool around trying other options, wanting to believe that some combination might actually work correctly--and maybe others can jump in.

This works as I would like!
Code: Select all
table Actions
Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: control middle singleClk
Drag: right hold
EndDrag: right singleClk
Execute[0]: left singleClk
Execute[1]: middle singleClk
end
Note that I have used the original Reload command, since I saw that it was working. Then I changed the Reload by adding "control" -- and that still works.
That's better, but I find clicking with the middle button (which is not found on all mouses) sort of awkward. Will return to this later...

Final: everything works with this, no conflicts.
Code: Select all
table Actions
Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: control left singleClk
Drag: right hold
EndDrag: right singleClk
Execute[0]: left singleClk
Execute[1]: middle singleClk
end
Time to get to real work...

Perhaps this one?
Code: Select all
table Actions
Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: middle doubleClk
Drag: left hold
EndDrag: left singleClk
Execute[0]: left doubleClk
Execute[1]: right singleClk
end
Triple click is also possible. :) tripleClk
idesk 0.7.5 has some nice options.
It can rotate backgrounds from a folder if Background folder is set and Background.Delay is set to something other than 0.
All the options are listed here ===>

Thanks. Nice tip on the background rotation, I'll take a look.
BTW: is there any way to get the XY part I was working on to be functional?

Totally forgot about that.

Hmmm. I first tried just opening and clicking on the Position entry, but the X and Y dialog boxes opened but no icon had been selected. Then I opened Position again, and pressed the Back key. That ran through the regular edit process, but the X Y boxes did not show.
I will take a closer look tonight.

Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: control left singleClk
Drag: right hold

Time to get to real work...
I'm going to use this b/c it doesn't change what we have been doing so far, so neither the user nor the documentation has to change.
Having a working set of commands means now that earlier suggestions, such as spidermouse's XY proposal, can be reevaluated.

Hmmm. I first tried just opening and clicking on the Position entry, but the X and Y dialog boxes opened but no icon had been selected. Then I opened Position again, and pressed the Back key. That ran through the regular edit process, but the X Y boxes did not show.
I will take a closer look tonight.
I should install MX in some VM to see what's going on.
Probably different yad versions.
