Awesome man, I'm accompanying your work for years, its nice to see all this evolution, now i am imagining a Xbox 360 tracker of movements in front of your pc and identifying when your fingers touch each other trigging the menu, your hand goes up and when you release the finger touch it opens the selected item, its the future.
Not sure how difficult this would be, but Kando feels like it would work perfectly with controllers. I use the steam deck in desktop mode all the time and it would be awesome if I could just hold a button and then flick the stick in different directions to access apps in Kando. This is actually already possible to recreate with steams mapping functions, but native support for controllers would be fantastic. I imagine it's a decent amount of work so I wouldn't be surprised if it's not possible atm.
Yeah, this would be awesome indeed. I do not have the hardware to develop this. But if you want, you could create a corresponding feature request on GitHub and maybe someone is willing to add this feature!
First time hearing about Kando. I'm a terminal guy and I'm not fond of animation pie GUI menu but the animation you made looks very slick I feel like I should try it. Killer for me is that you made this cross-platform. I use 3 platforms regularly and this is going to be a fun toy to show off :)
This is an amazing update Simon! Any way to adjust animation speeds? Some workflows might require everything to go just a little bit faster or instantly if possible.
If you run Kando from source - which is pretty easy to do - you can adjust this. There's not yet a setting for it. If you need help, feel free to join the discord server! There are some folks running an animation-less version of Kando already :)
1. how to make it to autostart with windows startup? 2. how to update Kando? update.exe in folder didn't work 3. can I somehow turn off "The marking mode"? Amazing app, Simon. Thank you a lot for your work!
Thank you! 1. There's not yet a builtin option, but it's easy on Windows: support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/add-an-app-to-run-automatically-at-startup-in-windows-10-150da165-dcd9-7230-517b-cf3c295d89dd 2. Just download and install the newer version. It will replace your previous version but keep all settings. 3. Not yet. If you want to have this in a future version, you could open a feature request on GitHub!
I really like your product, elegant idea and great implementation. I am glad I found it early enough. My question is how can I assign one of the menu items to start a program, for example "Photoshop". Unfortunately, I only found out about PowerShall a few hours ago and my script is written incorrectly. Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2022\Photoshop.exe" Can you help me? Thanks
If the path is correct, it should usually be sufficient to use "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2022\Photoshop.exe" as command (including the quotes). If this does not work, feel free to join the discord server or open a discussion on GitHub so that we can properly fix this :)
Not with Kando only, but there are many third-party tools which you can use to achieve this: github.com/kando-menu/kando/blob/main/docs/usage.md#%EF%B8%8F%EF%B8%8F-opening-menus-without-the-keyboard
Hi, can you help with Kando? I noticed that it doesn't work quite correctly with SAI2 on Windows 10. I mean that if you run the program for the first time, everything will be fine, but after performing an action, it somehow stops working with this program the second time and beyond (the window itself stops being active - until you switch to the program itself). There is no such problem in Photoshop. And the update is just unreal - the program is quite cool and sometimes very convenient (I hope it will only get better for all platforms over time).
Would you mind joining the Discord server [1] or open a discussion on GitHub [2]? TH-cam is not really a good platform to track more complicated issues... [1] discord.gg/hZwbVSDkhy [2] github.com/orgs/kando-menu/discussions
@@simonschneegans My mind was blown. It turns out that even in this state, if you assign just one button instead of a combination to call Kando, SAI2 becomes an inactive window, But all the undo comands and macro - finally, it works as it should. Regarding this issue, I'll try to record a video using OBS later and share it, possibly through Discord. (Also, I'm sorry I can't respond quickly. I just have major problems with electricity.)
Running this on ubuntu on my macbook and for some reason the menu picks a random point on my screen to open from and not my cursor... any chance you know anything I could change in the config to fix this? would love to have it open on the mouse and avoid using the centered mode

I also envision great potential with AR technology. Imagine using something like this with your hands in 3D space...
Obviously not the highlight of the release but the icon name tooltip is such a small but thoughtful feature.

Simply amazing work!
AWESOME!!

Holy shit this is crazy

2. how to update Kando? update.exe in folder didn't work
3. can I somehow turn off "The marking mode"?
Amazing app, Simon. Thank you a lot for your work!
I also have a big request: please make the settings menu appear in a windowed manner rather than full screen. At least optional. 😺
@@rondoo That's on the roadmap!
Thank you!

Could the middle mouse button be used to activate the pie menu?

@@simonschneegansyea definitely I’ll send some vids to the discord first thing in the AM
Wow!
Is it possible to install it on Mint Cinnamon?
*I'm very new to Linux
Yes, it should work! If you have questions, either join the discord server or open a discussion on GitHub! Both links are in the description above.
太棒啦！我觉得这款软件真的非常的好。不过想提个小小的建议可以吗？希望能开发出不同的语言包可以吗？
I am planning this for the 1.4.0 release. So translating will be possible in a few weeks, most likely.
Finally! Now with appimage, the party can begin!
