New for code things - so need help custom that

[Makezu90]

Hi

Hopefully you can help me. I tried remove things what i wanted but these methods what i found not helped me.

Firstly i want remove these: apps, Windows also desktop. Maybe also Task manager settings but not sure but give solution how to i could remove that.

After that i want to add that atleast Windows version to top (if that possible) and after that OS build so something like this (forget these other things example name to top).

thank you for helping! 🙂

• The 'apps' and 'Windows' taskbar menus come with the program - the easiest way is to delete part of the code in /imports/taskbar.nss (delete+save and reload the program)
• To get further help, it is necessary to know which version of Nilesoft Shell App you are using.
• describe in detail everything individually that you want to achieve

Thanks for answering. So im using 1.8.1 version. Sorry picture is not the best i think but tried to do best. So i try get simple and clean so that where you see these OS build number etc. Not sure is that all possible but hopefully some of them. Forget color i go to full black after i have done that.

X meaning -> remove

Green is what i want to keep.

Also I tried remove that taskbar.nss but it removed all and left only terminal what i do not like.

[RubicBG]

open file '\imports\goto.nss' find and delete:
'window.is_taskbar||' (let only this remain 'where=sel.count')

open file '\imports\taskbar.nss' find and delete:
'menu(title="Apps" ....' to the end along with '}'
'menu(title=title.windows ....' to the end along with '}'
'item(title=title.taskbar_Settings ...' the entire line
'item(title=title.desktop ....' the entire line

open file '\imports\taskbar.nss' and add at the end of the file:

menu(expanded=1 type='taskbar' pos=0) {
     separator
     item(title=sys.ver.name vis='label' )
     item(title='OS build: '+sys.ver vis='label' )
     separator
}

don't forget to reload the app or restart Windows Explorer after each change to see if you did everything right

i got it work once, not anymore. if i remove example 'menu(title="Apps" ....' to the end along with '}' then others delete too, not sure why. However i can get work that OS version but also want it top so not sure how i can do that.

edit/ never mind, i got that work now, but how i move that OS + other things to up? also i read that version commands and tried different methods but not got worked that 22H2 version example thing. could you please help with these? if thats possible to get.. then im done. thank you.

• about position: in the example above, I set it to be at the top with 'pos=0'. Nowhere higher (but other logic may apply to the arrangement). In my picture it looks like it's not at the top, but that's because I want other commands to be there. If you want send me '\imports\taskbar.nss' to look at.
• about 22H2: there is no command to retrieve this information and show it in the menu, otherwise I would have provided a solution for this. I can put it as fixed text, just enough to have it. (I have an idea, when I have time to test it I will write, not what you want, but as close as possible)

[Makezu90]

OK. I understand that. Do you have discord example wehere i can send it to you? Also no worries, take your time.

links not worked so i put link: (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sZf_XC4_LDZNcXSAFwVlJcWgdGn3pnUz/view?usp=drive_link)

[RubicBG]

it matters which file you import first - here's what to do:

open file '\imports\taskbar.nss' and remove the code you added:

menu(expanded=1 type='taskbar' pos=0) {
      separator
      item(title=sys.ver.name vis='label' )
      item(title='OS build: '+sys.ver vis='label' )
      separator
}

download winver.zip , extract the file into ''\imports', open '\shell.nss' and add before 'import 'imports/terminal.nss' '

import 'imports/winver.nss'

I use another version of the program and the syntax in it is a little different: I can't test it at my place - write back

[Makezu90]

It worked, thak you! :)

[RubicBG]

open file '\imports\winver.nss' and replace the code with this one:

$svg_winver= '<svg width="100" height="100" viewBox="-160 0 512 512">
        <path style="fill:@image.color2" d="M20 424.229h20V279.771H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20V212c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20h112c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20v212.229h20c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20V492c0 11.046-8.954 20-20 20H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20v-47.771c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20zM96 0C56.235 0 24 32.235 24 72s32.235 72 72 72 72-32.235 72-72S135.764 0 96 0z"/>
    </svg>'


menu(expanded=1 type='taskbar' pos=0) {
    separator
    item(title=sys.ver.name image=svg_winver cmd='msinfo32.exe')
    item(title='OS build: '+sys.ver image=svg_winver cmd='winver.exe')
    separator
}

test and give an opinion

[Makezu90]

sorry took long to test that, but i tested that and now context menu not works anymore with that. But with that other code its works.

Edit//

I removed that first part and its worked. If you try to give code which allow click that name and it open x window or whatever called. however its very cool 👍need to think if i want to keep that so i can click that system version and it open thats window what i will almost never use. 🤔

// minimum requirements: version 1.8.37 (debug version 37)

// as commands: copy to clipboard / as commands + key SHIFT: open info apps
menu(expanded=1 type='taskbar' pos=0) {
    separator
    item(title=sys.ver.name image=\uE136 cmd=if(keys.shift(), 'msinfo32.exe', clipboard.set(sys.ver.name)))
    item(title='OS build: '+sys.ver image=\uE136 cmd=if(keys.shift(), 'winver.exe', clipboard.set(sys.ver)))
    separator
}

it can even be done:
right click on taskbar -> label item
right click on taskbar while holding shift key - command item

[Makezu90]

did i do something wrongly? 🤔

[RubicBG]

if it refers to image '?' you can replace them with one of these (example: 'image=\uE136') :
https://nilesoft.org/gallery/glyphs
or add icon code like the previous one (example: 'image=svg_winver')

$svg_winver= '<svg width="100" height="100" viewBox="-160 0 512 512">
         <path style="fill:@image.color2" d="M20 424.229h20V279.771H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20V212c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20h112c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20v2 12.229h20c11.046 0 20 8.954 20 20V492c0 11.046-8.954 20-20 20H20c-11.046 0-20-8.954-20-20v-47.771c0-11.046 8.954-20 20-20zM96 0C56.235 0 2 4 32.235 24 72s32.235 72 72 72 72-32.235 72-72S135.764 0 96 0z"/>
     </svg>

still experimenting with the right image :)

[Makezu90]

now its very cool, thank you! :) and how i like it to be.

These are mine two last questions: (sorry for asking too much)

1. Is it possible remove that hover thing when want open Windows 11 Home window? So it can be only icon + text. I removed that exe. thing but its still show that hover animation thing (its clickable).

2. Possible remove Shift + right click open label and instead use left click? I guess no because you not mentioned that, but want make sure. Or is this coming possible in later version? Atleast its worked in version what i used that way.

[RubicBG]

add
vis='static'

[Makezu90]

and where? i put it inside ' where was that exe, did not worked, after that.. before.. not worked. which is right place?

[RubicBG]

menu(expanded=1 type='taskbar' pos=0) {
separator
item(title=sys.ver.name image=\uE136 vis='static')
item(title='OS build: '+sys.ver image=\uE136 vis='static')
separator
}

[Makezu90]

Great, thanks 👍
