Have ESC not close FE

[brian_hoffman]

Well ESC will navigate you back from menus and when in the main menu it will colse the FE. For cabs the exit key could be pressed and accidently close the FE. Then your without a way of easily launching it again. (yes I know I can create a service that monitors if hs is running and if not run it... ) But still I think its needed.

So my request is have ESC not close the FE.. Make it an option in the config to disable or enable.

agree or have a menu"are you sure you want to close the FE"

This was actually a request that I requested after the first release... I use ESC to Exit applications and as back button on my cabinet. There has been many many many times when I have hit ESC one too many times and accidentally quit out of the HS main menu. I do think there needs to be another option to set a button or button combo to exit the FE.

[brian_hoffman]

Yeah I could write a program that will listen for HS to be the active window and not bind ESC to any function and that would still let you be able to use it to quit your emus but it wouldnt do anything in HS.. The problem with that is its the only way to get back to previous menus.

Unless there is an alternitive back button that wouldnt be of much use.

Already implimented...

But I do need to make an escape menu, I'll do that tonight real quick.

Just about wrapped up an animated exit screen. I like this better now myself. All it does is ask you yes or no to quit the FE, while the words Are you sure? bounce around, you can still tell the FE what to do upon exit, I'll post the screenshot in a little while, for now it wont really be customizable, but later I'll make it so you can switch out the graphics for your own.

Sweet!

Cant wait

Altough I still really think there needs to be an option to not be able to exit HS

[BadBoyBill]

Simple enough, I'll add that to.

Hi. I havn't been able to find that feature. I would like to make it so that alt F4 is the only way to exit the FE (I don't want the "are you sure?" screen to ever come up). How do I do this?

I've got the next version (7.02) now. Where is the setting? If there's a .diff file out there, please point me to that. Thanks

Settings.ini [main] enable_exit_menu = true

If you really dont want anything to close the fe then Settings.ini exit_key = 27 , then just remove the 27. You'll have to use alt-f4 to close hs in that case.
