Calling Up Toolbar

Post by jamieg »

I bought G-Force Platinum shortly after being very impressed by the demo.

1 thing dissapoints me however.....

I'm running iTunes on my Mac, when I start up G-Force the menu bar automaticaly pops up. I know this can be changed so that it doesn't pop, but if you have it set this way, changing a setting means leaving iTunes and going into the applications folder and clicking the 'G-Force Toolbar' App.

Is there any way of being able to call up the toolbar by pressing the 'Visualiser Settings' button in iTunes (which is the button every other Visualiser utilises and is greyed out when running G-Force)......This would mean I wouldn't have to minimize the toolbar every time I start G-Force and would make it easier to call up the toolbar.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Solution

Post by jamieg »

The only solution I could come up with to easily call up the G-Force toolbar from within iTunes (without it starting automatically when G-Force starts [this bugged the hell out of me]) is as follows...........

I created a simple script using apple's Script Editor and named it 'Open G-Force Toolbar', code is as follows...........

tell application "G-Force Toolbar" to activate

place it in......

/Users/*your user name*/Library/iTunes/Scripts

Start up iTunes and you will be able to start up the G-Force toolbar from the scripts menu in iTunes, eliminating the need to leave iTunes (if you prefer not to have G-Force tool start up automatically when you start G-Force like me)

Just a suggestion:
You might want to set up a script that you can use while in full screen mode. One that would first switch to non full screen and then launches the toolbar. The toolbar can't be launched while in full screen mode otherwise.
