Saw you post. I was looking to do a similar thing. I wanted all my programs
/ files to display on screen. Placing shortcuts on the start menu in classic
mode meant, after ten or so, any more were hidden. You have to move the
mouse overt the arrow to scroll up/down. I wanted all the shortcuts to
display at once, rather than this scroll.
Previous post meant clicking on start, then on programs, then the shortcuts
show. That's too many clicks.
What i've done is, created a folder.
Placed all my files / shortcuts I want, displayed in it.
Created a shortcut to this folder.
Right clicked the shortcut folder, and selected / properties/ shortcut/
shortcut key.
Pressed ctr alt and one key of your choosing, I chose crt + alt + \
So, when you want to start a program / file, it's ( ctrl / alt / \ ). Folder
opens completely, and you pick what you want. Under view you can organise
the icons, or have them list under a,b,c, etc. I'm having
Graphics-utilities-dvd, so might either add G for Graphics to the start of
every graphics name ( G Photoshop ), utilities ( U - Calculator ) etc, or
jst arrange them together.
