Better Menus (CoreRPG, 5E/etc)

[rocketvaultgames]

So, I did a lot of testing on this pre-4.5 release and was not able to find a solution. I believe it had something to do with the event I was looking at for module load changes but those changes were not acted on until the menu was selected so shouldn't have caused any issue like this. Even disabling the books section didnt resolve it which was where the code ran to check for it.

That said, I've not seen the issue in 4.5 so something updated in FG 4.5 that resolved it.

I released an updated version today that will resolve the Menu name changes introduced in 4.5.



The only menu that should not be static is the books menu. Unfortunately there is no way to programatically change the size of a Panel which is what the system uses. Once it reaches a specific size it adds the scroll bar.

Sorry, I didn't see this until now... I really appreciate you having looked into all of this and responding.

I'm still seeing the regular lag spike in 4.5.1. Toggling between Sidebar and Menus fixes it just like before.

I ran my checks in the TEST channel before 4.5 was released and was not able to see lag spikes when I had about 10 modules loaded. In anycase I dont run persistent pulsing checks for anything in my code. There are some events I monitor and if those are causing it thats API side I can't resolve. I updated the event specific to this to use the same one that JPG used for the new "Books" of theirs for 4.5.

Hey there, just curious if there's any compatibility between this extension and extensions that add new menu options, such as Timer. As it stands, the timer button does show up with the default menu but not with Better Menus. Figured I'd ask because I couldn't find anyone else experiencing this in the thread.

There is functionality that developers can use to add their own menus. The first post links to it which is here : https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...l=1#post574918
