Better : "Button Menu for running actions" ?

@openmax I'd be curious to hear what your ideas are to improve the actions workflow.

[openmax]

as starting point i'd like this extension for vscode -> https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jerrygoyal.shortcut-menu-bar
and relative github -> https://github.com/GorvGoyl/Shortcut-Menu-Bar-VSCode-Extension

where you can configure fixes button 1 to 9 to your prefered actions .. and there are already button for "save" , "undo", "cut" , "copy" etc etc

as evolution where we have multiple choise for ctrl-e , maybe we can have a button that open a submenu ( or sub-button ) , like in then microsoft ribbon of office ..

here some already asked example on vscode : https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/41309

Sadly it's not possible to dynamically add to those icons. While it would be neat, there is no pretty way to go about it right now.

@openmax I think our 'runAction' command needs to let you pass in a parm so you can click the button and it will search for the action.

For example, for that extension:

• code-for-ibmi.runAction|CRTBNDRPG
• code-for-ibmi.runAction|CRTSRVPGM

then it would search and use the first action to match the type, extension, and name provided in the argument.

What do you think?

@worksofliam that is a good idea , so i can put in the button configuration comand parameter to solve particulary compile need , like RPGPPOPT(*LVL2) , TGTRLS(V7R2M0) or ALWNULL(*USRCTL) ..., and have more button for the same COMMAND but with the option i want ..

Closing because this is still the same problem.
