SOLVED Add Flip 3D to Context Menu

[Elmer BeFuddled]

Here you go Fire Cat!

To add Flip 3D to your context menu save the following code as a .reg file and merge with your registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Flip 3D]
@="Flip 3D"
"Icon"="C:\\WINDOWS\\Explorer.exe,18"
"Position"="Top"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Flip 3D\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe DwmApi #105"

The "Position" can be changed to "Bottom" or, if left blank or omitted, it will find its own home. Enjoy!!

Nah - He just opened up Photoshop and made the context menu shorter, but in a styly way My context menu is bigger than my screen, so I don't post all of it when I make tuts Neither does he

Press on Windowskey+Tab to see Flip 3D!

Fire Cat, in the original code it read C:\Windows\SysWoW64... now changed it to read
C:\Windows\System32... (in the Bottom line). Sorry about that (you haven't got a SysWoW64 folder)

Hahahhahaha That was g8...I knew about Flip 3D ie Windowskey+Tab but i got a little confused when i saw that on Context Menu...

But Cyril i wanna know why will 1 add this to Context Menu because toggling b/w multiple windows will be much easier by using the normal key combo 1 has to click N number of time to get it done...:dontknow:

People like me can't be bothered to touch the keyboard

I like using the "third" button on my mouse (scroll wheel) to activate/deactivate the flip.

I've only just mastered the black art of scrolling the mouse wheel, let alone clicking the bugger!!

 

[Fire cat]

Hehehe - I've mastered the art of scroll
Especially with my mouse, which has two different scrolling types, which include horizontal scrolling and "loose" scrolling.

I think I'll add a link to my third button as well...
