Adding "Filemanager" as customer home menu item
#1
Hi ronie

wondering if you could advise of anyway to add the fillmanager as one of my home options. unfortunatley I cant highlight "filmanager" anywhere to add it to my favorites as the only way I can see to get to it is via the shutdown screen. (do you pehaps know what the window ID's and how I could manually alter my homescreen menu, unless of course you know an easier way.

Cheers

hi jps55 . thanks for the response.

however, i want to add it as a main item rather than in a sub menu as i dont enable the setting option on the home screen. i keep that in the shutdown menu. is there any other way to do this?

you can manually add it to favourites by editting favourites.xml

Code:
<favourite name="FileManager">ActivateWindow(filemanager)</favourite>[HTML][/HTML]
