Preset List Icon And Labels

Help & Support
1

I have a button that is the "presets list" from the Find tool:

Preset List

But when it's in "show icon" mode, it won't show me what my presets are. They are icons that don't tell me the names of the presets:

Icons

And if the button is in "show labels" mode it has the first preset shown, that I don't want. I would want the main icon for the button itself. Also it's weird because the button displays my recent "MUSIC" preset but clicking the button doesn't actually trigger the "MUSIC" search anyway, it just opens the menu.

Labels

So can there be a button type that is an icon for the button itself but labels for the menu so that I can have both please? (And why the "MUSIC" label got forced into the main button instead of being an entry in the menu?)

You can turn on labels and icons at the same time, either for the button or the toolbar as a whole.

Is the “Music” label on the menu just what’s defined as the label for the menu itself? If so, you can edit it to whatever you want.

Oh. Well with both enabled it becomes that:
That

That's a bit awkward among the other buttons, but it is helpful that I have the word.

Sorry I got messed up about the 'MUSIC' label. I should have double checked.
It's actually a preset group, not a preset. So that makes more sense of why it became the button label. Think I'm actually going to stick with the label only. I could rename the group to be appropriate for a button.
Music Group

I meant both enabled for the things in the menu, not the thing that opens the menu (unless you want that as well; you have the option).

You can have the label to the right (or left) of the icon if you want, it doesn't have to be below it.

Don't ask me why I had JPG and PNG under a "Music" heading, cause I don't know either. :sweat_smile:

Ok, I changed it to a "menu" type button instead of a "button menu" type.
And gave it an external tag icon. So now it's just an icon and the menu items work good as text.

Tag Menu
It's becoming extremely sweet.
I'm surprised that it actually reads all my advanced find presets and groups them into the menu.
Frikkin sweet.

I could find filetypes with wildcards if I wanted, but I made them as tags too if needed.

So each preset has a bunch of tags that abbreviate into the one word of the preset of what I'm looking for at the time.
Tags PICS

I wish that I could reorder the menu groups though, without having to number them to put them in a custom order.

Tag Presets

Do these advanced find presets get backed up when exporting the Dopus data?

Yes.
