These switches are not part of the normal user workflow. They exist so development and documentation captures can be repeated cleanly. These switches are not part of the normal user workflow. They exist so development and documentation captures can be repeated cleanly.
## Future Ideas
These ideas are intentionally tracked on `dev` only. Do not publish them on `main` until a feature is built, tested, and ready for users.
### Open All for Menu Sections
Add a simple right-click action on menu and submenu headers:
- `Open All`
Expected behavior:
- Right-click a top-level menu or submenu title.
- Click `Open All`.
- Launch each direct child item in that section.
- For nested submenus, decide later whether `Open All` should include only direct items or recursively include nested children.
- Skip unsupported items safely and show/log a clear result if something cannot be opened.
This keeps Taskbar Launcher focused as a launcher. It gives project-style behavior without adding a full project dashboard.
### Project Launcher Concept
Parked for later as a possible personal/custom feature:
- Project item type with actions for folder, VS Code, terminal, docs, Git/Gitea page, local server, Docker Compose, and helper scripts.
- Could become useful, but it is larger than the current public app direction.
- Do not start this until the simpler `Open All` behavior is tested and proves insufficient.
