Thank you so much for this! I need all the screen I can use, and so do my players!
Unfortunately for me, with the Savage Worlds ruleset I get the following error:
"Ruleset Error: desktop: Panel (identitylist) anchoring to uninitialized target panel (shortcuts)"
...and no books are displayed. I'd love to see this work for this ruleset, if I can help in any way.

I just have to say how shockingly refreshingly spacious and much more modern FG looks without a constant sidebar. I love this so much. Thank you thank you thank you.

I like this Celestian.
I have a few suggestions after using this for just a few minutes. Not sure if they're possible, but maybe!
* It does appear that your extension and Kent's "Minimized Sidebar Icons" work together well in the 5e Ruleset. You guys might want to collaborate a bit and make those two extensions into one extension that works in all the CoreRPG rulesets!
* Settings for menu size ... I play on a large monitor (actually a 60" tv) and your menus are pretty tiny. If possible, I'd love a larger size menu, but not a big deal.
* I'd love to be able to "add" certain buttons from the menus as additional buttons along the menu ... like "Add Library" and there is a Library button right next to the Books menu. Or right click on Calendar and "Add Calendar button" and Calendar button shows up.

I just realized the Calendar "button" is not there... I'll get that added but what do you mean "Add Library" ? That button is there.
For what it's worth if there is a custom window/menu you'd like to load there is the MenuManager that is part of the extension that you can write your own extension to use.
MenuManager.addMenuItem("moduleselection", "", "sidebar_tooltip_moduleselection");
It's actually the same thing I use to load the "Modules" list menu directly. The documentation (such that it is) is in the manager_menu.lua in the extension.
Code:--[[ This will add a custom menu/window item to the Menu button. sRecord The window class sPath The database node associated with this window (if any) sToolTip The tooltip string record, Interface.getString(sTooltip); Displayed when someone hovers over the menu selection sButtonCustomText The text used as the name for the menu. If doesn't exist will look for "library_recordtype_label_" .. sRecord ]] function addMenuItem(sRecord, sPath, sToolTip, sButtonCustomText)

celestian, you knocked out of the park with this one. this is great. so glad to free up the right side of my screen and the reference books are awesome. If the buttons/font could be just a tad bigger(one of my players is hard at seeing) this would be great. Thank you for this.
