True Launch Bar objects
All
objects that appear on the toolbar or menus are buttons. Here is the
list of the most common button types.
- Shortcuts
and files are the primary button types. Clicking on a shortcut
or file button normally launches the corresponding application.
- Menus – menu or folder – may contain any objects,
including other menus. The level of nesting and the number of
objects within a menu are not limited.
- Separators are a special button type, which appears as a vertical or
horizontal separator bar. Separators can be used for grouping
buttons within a menu. Besides that, when menu buttons are sorted,
the sorting will apply only to groups of items limited by the
separators.
- Titles are separators with text.
- Plugins are special buttons that extend True Launch Bar’s
capabilities. Plugins can be both menus and regular buttons. The
content and functionality of the buttons depend on a particular
plugin.
All
True Launch Bar objects, except for separators and titles, are files
physically. Those files are located in the special folder called the toolbar folder. To find out where the folder is located,
unlock the toolbar (Windows XP only), then right-click on the
toolbar separator on the left and then select “Open”
on the menu that appears:

A toolbar
folder contains all the toolbar settings, shortcuts, plugins, and
menus. Some files in the folder are hidden. If you want to see those
files, you will need to enable showing hidden files in Windows
Explorer settings.
You can
also move any object from the toolbar to any other folder using the
Drag&Drop technique.
