Documentation

I guess a full (even if really brief) documentation of all the menu properties/functions this time would be a nice add-on for developers

We won't abandon the forum and m.lists but I guess everyone would be happy to put less weight on the support, wouldn't you?

I couldn't agree more.

Although the structure is now a breeze with version 4, in order to get the best out of the menu and to use its full set of features you will need to know what the parameters are. Menu items themselves currently weight with at a total of 53 different passable parameters and we still haven't finished yet so as you can see it's quite complex now if you need to do anything out of the ordinary.

Once we have the new version and the new website done, the docs will commence

Cheers
Andy

I'd like to suggest a reference to "objects" those with the quotes, I made the same mistakes on both menus: separatorsize="1";

Thank you

Generally a pretty safe assumption is that if its JUST a number, you dont need the quotes. Hey maz, didnt you ask this question before and I gave ya alittle insight?

As I said, just a number then no quotes necessary. If you have any letters or symbols (px,=,#,etc) then you need quotes. THere may be rare instances that this isnt the case, but I cant think of any off the top of my head.

Given all he's had on his plate with this new version, I think what Andy has given us so far is years ahead of what we had in v3. The current parameters are spelled out over on the main site, and when you couple those with the extensive examples there you can get a very good picture of how to do almost whatever.

OK, so right now it takes a little poking around. No biggie. The in-depth stuff is coming, but for now most of it is already there. A little patience, folks...

It's all on the To-Do list which is now taking up about a whole ream of paper.

We'll get there (i keep telling myself that, must be going mad

)

Cheers

I don't think any of us mind replying to questions in the forum. I think it's true to say we all learn something new here every day.

Agreed, Andy. I know I keep picking up new stuff here from just about everybody.
