Post subject:  NextSTART Sounds
Help please! How do I save sounds for use with Nextstart? I think they have to go into the *.wst (Nextstart config) file?

Now, I know the settings for the shelf sound scheme .wss file, and I think this would be similar to that, i.e., e.g.,

SoundFx00=C:\Users\Public\Documents\WinStep\Themes\\My Theme\Collapse.wav
SoundFx01=C:\Users\Public\Documents\WinStep\Themes\\My Theme\Expand.wav
etc.

But what are the codes for Nextstart sounds, i.e., SoundFX00=what action, 01= what action, and so on. And do these statements have to go any particular place in the Nextstart .wst file?

And, wouldn't it be simpler to have a separate Nextstart sound theme config file รก la .wss so they could be a complete theme that could be selected in the NS prefs just as a theme can be selected in the shelf prefs?

SoundFx0 = Open Menu
SoundFx1 = Close Menu
SoundFx2 = Execute Item
SoundFx3 = Roll Menu Up
SoundFx4 = Roll Menu Down
SoundFx5 = Menu Always on Top
SoundFx6 = Rotate Menu
FxSound7 = Collapse Startbar
FxSound8 = Expand Startbar
FxSound9 = Select Item
FxSound10 = Take Picture

Notice the change in name after item 6. Don't ask why, it was done nearly 20 years ago and that's exactly what my 19 year old comment for that piece of code says 'Don't ask lol' :P

Don't specify events you are not providing a sound file for.

Ooh, thank you so much Jorge, I could kiss you. Nah, you're pretty, but not enough. ;)

LOL! Well, it works anyway. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, as the saying goes. :)

Sure.

As you're not commenting further I presume position in *.wst is unimportant.

Now wouldn't it be nice if we could save that as a sound theme like for WS? Btw, also doing a separate sound theme for WS. Should I email it when ready?
