Author Topic: Suggestion: Add 'Exit' to list of commands for top and bottom Toolbars  (Read 1019 times)

Microsoft's Office 2016 (at least) allows Exit to be added to the QAT of its applications and the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite for a few versions has allowed Exit to placed on any toolbar of DRAW or Photo-Paint (with customized icon no less).

This is very convenient for large monitors: The X in the upper right corner is not the inevitable target. Fewer long mouse-pointer passages.

Since Media Center doesn't have the conventional Windows Title Bar, a right-click there for 'Close' is out of the question. Of course, File > Exit works. ( — As does ALT + F4.) But if one is working in the middle of the screen, it is efficient to have an Exit icon more-or-less straight up. Even Windows Explorer allows an Exit icon on its QAT …

Thanks and good wishes for the ongoing development of Media Center!

You can right click top or bottom to customize. If exit isn't there already, we can probably add it.

Coming next build:
NEW: A button to exit the program can be added to the toolbar.

Thanks for the idea :)

If you change to a skin with the tool bars towards the centre of the screen (like blue  steel- which personally does my head in) you can have the exit button vertically over the middle of the screen.
