Lock feature for Mala?
« on: October 15, 2006, 05:19:23 pm »
I was wondering if there is an option to lock mala to avoid accidental exiting or if this might be an option that could be added?

You assign exit to a Hidden button or a 'Shiftted' Button

I use the tree layout so the exit button and the back button are the same button.

Ahh yes... we have discussed this before.

A fundamental nuisance I imagine.

A question for Swindus

Right, in tree mode this doesn't work. I think I will add a 'lock exit' option.
One question: How do you want to exit/quit MaLa with a locked exit function?

Ok, I added this feature. When enabled you have to use the mouse to exit.

That was quick, thanks.  :applaud:

I assume it will be in the next release, any idea how long?

Swindus you are THE man :notworthy: I love your FE.  Just starting to learn the Jukebox side of things on the FE now.
Thanks for your work.
