right click should go to windows properties

Post by dcitelecom »

Right clicking on a windows icon (e.g. My computer) goes to the icon/windows properties. Right clicking on the same icon in rainmeter does not offer the same option. It only allows to edit rainmeter properties. Would be nice to integrate the same functionality into rainmeter.

I am running the Omnimo theme and want to do away completely with the desktop but still need this funtionality from time to time.

Rainmeter is not, and is not intended to be, a shell replacement. An "icon" in Rainmeter is just an image that you can attach Rainmeter functionality to, and has nothing to do with any shortcut or other Windows functionality.

You never know what the future might bring, but it is not our current intention to move Rainmeter in the direction of replacing core Windows functionality.
