Good! Thank you.
The way you'd written it "will replace sticky selection", it appeared as if you intended to remove sticky selection.

... will replace sticky selection ... PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE STICKY SELECTION!!! Checkboxes waste space. Are they checked with the Insert key, or only mouse operated? If they are only mouse operated, then what way will there be, with the keyboard, of "sticking" the selection? I only use the...

True!
Perhaps I should have written "A great enhancement to x² would be ..." rather than "I do want ...".

Nothing of interest to me...
Don't want programmable columns
Don't like crumbs
Don't use the drivebar

I do want a middle toolbar.
I do want a hotkey letter, not a number, to active the User commands.

Yes, but not the way I would have thought of doing it. Without FrizzleFry's help I would never have thought of reducing the Filter box size to remove a button.

The original post does not make it clear that the color filter button you want to remove is in the quick filter box on the address bar so it seems Nikos assumed you wanted to remove it from one of the button toolbars... True, but I hadn't realised that I could add that button to any toolbar. Now I ...

... I do not see a way to hide/remove just the color filter button... I'm glad I'm not going doolally!! The response from Nikos made me wonder if I had missed something obvious. ... A request for v6 perhaps? Indeed, Nikos is working on a GUI facelift, so adding the ability to decide what buttons ar...

If I right click anywhere near the color filter button in the address bar, I don't get an option to customize it, and hence to remove the color filter. If I right click on Mine (the toolbar I've created with the buttons I want) I can ADD the color filter button to Mine, but I don't want that. If I c...

I don't want the color filter button on the toolbar. I don't seem to be able to find a setting to remove it. Does it always have to be there, wasting space!

you know that you can assign direct shortcuts to particular user commands, right? so you execute directly without menus Yes, I know, but that is even more difficult to remember. Ctrl+? for Info. Also, I can only assign numbers, not letters. If I could assign Ctrl+I for Info, then it would be a litt...

i didn't realize you wanted to open the menu, i though you wanted the list of the commands in the DIALOG (Alt+U, U, More) they are functionally the same, and at any rate that's the only one available as a macro adding & in a command name isn't going to work as you've discovered :) O.K. The macr...

the first one is easy, use the macro recorder and open the menu you want, and when you see the organize dialog click on FINISH for more information see here www.zabkat.com/x2h_7a.htm#mak_record WRONG!! F12 to start recording a macro. Alt-U>U to get to the User commands list. click on Finish to end ...

Two things I can't seem to be able to: Create a macro to open the User commands list. I don't want to execute a command, just show the list so I can select a command. I've used AHK to send the command {ALTDOWN}u{ALTUP}u and assigned it to F9, that works. Assign an accelerator key (hot key) to a comm...

Does "Sticky selection" not do what you want?

... Why don't these guys use an index? ... Because indexes are of no use if you use removable drives. Drive H:\, for example, can be any of about 10 possible drives, depending which drive I plug in. Indexing in that situation does not work. It gets totally confused. Everything goes completely balmy...
