neobug103 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I propose that Matt implements a half second delay for the menu that drops down when you put your mouse over the big buttons in the Admin panel because I find myself constantly switching tabs and my mouse goes up and down and it often goes over the big buttons and then the menu drops down right on top of the button that i need to press in the clients profile. Not a hard request but I think it could make our lives a little easier by avoiding accidental menu drop downs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neobug103 Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 then another minor request, on the summary page of a client, would it be possible to move the email box above the 'actions' box as we are using the email section a lot more then the 'actions' box and it would save us some time if we didn't have to scroll down all the time just to send an email. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinspace Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Yeah, they do tend to get in the way at times eh? I'm sure it's in the template somewhere... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianoz Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 You can easily clear the dropdown menu from being over the tab you want to press by simply moving the mouse over another dropdown menu. I can't see the need for a half second delay given that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neobug103 Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 Well I know you can get the dropdown menu to disappear by moving the mouse on it but nonetheless it gets in the way a lot of the time and that is say 3 seconds out of my time just to wait for that menu to go away so I can continue on with my business. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freedombi Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Agreed. The drop-down menus tend to get in the way, especially when going between tabs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eger Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 You can already tweak the delay in admin/javascript/menu.js There is a line about half way down: var disappeardelay=250 //menu disappear speed onMouseout (in miliseconds) Looks like it's already a 1/4 a second. Doesn't get in the way for me at all. Maybe you can try this at 0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo1 Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Eger - that will only affect the timeout for when the menu disappears. What we are looking at here is a way to add a slight delay to when the menu will appear. I agree with OP, that the menu is coming up too fast and it would be nice to add this slight delay. I've spent the last hour or so looking into this and playing with some code in menu.js, but no luck. What I did find, is that this menu appears to be loosely based on the free Chrome drop down menu (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/chrome/index.htm). I think we need to implement onMouseover or onHover in the menu.js, but it's a little over my head. If anyone who knows a bit of js can wrap their brain around this, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
othellotech Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I'd prefer it only to "drop down" if you clicked on it - anyone know the change to the .js file for that ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'd prefer it only to "drop down" if you clicked on it - anyone know the change to the .js file for that ? Yes. I figured out how to do this. I will post the code in a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo1 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Much much nicer! Thank you! Btw, I didn't bother with the second part of your change, just the first part for replacing code in topmenu.tpl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
