Taskbar elements as menuItems

[Valentin]

Hi

I would like to have a way to access taskbar elements quicker by opening a menu at current cursor position containing a list of those elements.
I would also like a way to filter those elements. For example to show only pdf files in the menu.
How can I do that? (general idea and functions)

Thanks.

Thank you!

I get this:
Error in Smart_taskbar_menu: expected 1 arguments, not 2.
From -> GetMainWindows aw 4

Remove 4 or download QM 2.3.4 beta.
4 is a new flag "all Win10 desktops".

It works.
For win 7 QM 2.3.6.5 removed 4 from GetMainWindows and then h=GetWindowIcon(w).

Hi
How can I use the same button that opened the menu to advance down in menu?

Thanks

[Gintaras]

To select menu item?

[Valentin]

Yes, to select the next item in menu.
