=Thank you=
Not a bug report (though mine's been [[#Random_Quitting.3F|disappearing]] too occasionally), but I want to thank you for this fantastic app. Now I can be sure to be distracted by Facebook at any time of day, without even opening my browser! Facebook really will cost me my degree!
 
Feel free to remove this; I just wanted to say thanks! [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Smiler_jerg smiler] 08:16, 11 May 2007 (BST)
:Thanks for the kind words. I really wish the crashes would stop, but I will integrate infinite sessions into the next release so that at least it won't be necessary to log into the app each time you start it up. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 03:36, 11 May 2007 (EDT)

== Problem with ZIP archive? Future Features ==
I can't open Not sure if this is feasible, but it would be fantastic if you could do things through the archive—StuffIt Expander 10 stalls approximately 95% through and doesnprogram, e.g. poke specified people. Or if that wasn't start againpossible, and StuffIt Expander 11 returns an error. Is there a place for me it should be fairly easy to link to download the app relevant page - the /poke.php? bit makes that's not compressedeasy, right? Just a thought. --[[User:12982.13743.158144.156131|12982.13743.158144.156131]] 18:48, 12 February 2007 (EST):This is definitely doable. I'm thinking of using keyboard modifiers for each action – for example, pressing option-enter instead of enter to send a message, ctrl-enter to poke, etc. What do you think? [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 1620:0647, 29 January 12 February 2007 (EST)
:Never mindThis is similar to the question above I think, but would it seems I got a bad download from be possible to make the link keyboard shortcuts usable without having to click on the wikimenu icon ie. It worked being able to open the next time I tried it. quicklaunch panel (which i think is great) --[[User:12970.137158.158150.156128|12970.137158.158150.156128]] 1615:1824, 29 January 13 February 2007 (EST)::Hm, that's weirdI really want this as well, but so I strongly discourage anyone from using Stuffit at allwill try to get it into the next release. Mac OS X's built-in BOMArchiveHelperIt is definitely doable.app does [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 23:08, 12 February 2007 (EST):::You know what would also be super great, the job much better. Happy ability to hear have the cursor automatically appear inside the QuickLaunch Panel when it is launched, and when you complete a search that you were able to resolve the problem, howeverpanel would disappear. Then my life would be complete.--[[User:LensovetLoudestnoise|lensovetLoudestnoise]] 2116:0451, 29 January 15 February 2007 (EST)
== Friends opting out of Terms of Service and Update frequency ==Also, possibly a Quicksilver plugin? that would be awesome. --[[User:82.43.144.131|82.43.144.131]] 04:45, 13 February 2007 (EST)
I have three questions. First, exactly what effect does it have when a friend unchecks 'd love to see the Terms of Service box? Will FMenu not even be able to tell me when they poke or message me? Second, is there any way I can tell which friends have opted out of this? My third question is how frequent is "too frequent" ability for the app to update frequency? How frequently can I have it update without hitting the request limit? Thanks!:Here our status with what we go!:#If the friend unchecks this box, they are completely invisible currently listening to the programin iTunes. That means that anything about ''them'' is inaccessible, like their profile and their status. However, when they poke ''you'', Not sure if this is still accessible, because it is ''your'' information that's retrieved to find out the number of current pokes. So anything they do to you is available, because your info is retrieved, technically possible but anything they do would be really cool to their profiles is not.see implemented! [[User:#Yes, there is99. click on the arrow at the right of the text field in the Quicklaunch panel237. That lists all the friends that are available to you through the app <s>(in a random order, unfortunately)</s>, which are alphabetized by first name as of version 14.5226|99.:#This is essentially a guess-and-check process. As of version 1237.4, it appears that 7 seconds is in fact the most frequent update interval. I personally had it running with 6 seconds, but that would randomly give me incorrect notifications.:Hope that clears things up a bit!&nbsp;[[User:Lensovet|lensovet226]] 14:4046, 3 February 2007 15 July 2008 (ESTEDT)
== * I would like to be able to choose which notifications I receive.. for example I don't want to see profile updates. If this is already a feature, I can't find it. [--[[User:97.87.111.56|97.87.111.56]] 17:32, 23 July 2008 (EDT)]**Choosing which notifications you get is done via the Growl preference pane. You can open it easily from FMenu and Growl notifications =='s preferences.[[User:Lensovet|lensove†]] 00:32, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Great app, but a couple of suggestions.== Updating status ==
1. It would be nice cool if you could click on the Growl notifications and update your own status using this program.:<s>This would indeed be taken to very cool, but unfortunately implementing such functionality is at this time against the relevant page, Facebook API's [http://developers.facebook.com/tos.php Terms of Service]. You should e-mail them at developers-help@facebook.gcom to let them know that you want such a feature so that they are aware of the interest. if my friend updates a status [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 16:57, 21 February 2007 (EST)</s>:This is now possible with extended API functions and I click, will look into implementing it goes to her page or if someone posts on for the wallnext release.[[User:Lensovet|lensove†]] 19:32, it takes me there.18 April 2008 (EDT)
2. The == QuickLaunch Cursor == When using the QuickLaunch feature it would be amazing if when you either click on the menu icon should also indicate whether people have posted item, or notuse the keyboard shortcut that the cursor appears within the text box. Perhaps by colour Reducing the use of the mouse or counter?:#Thanks! The first one trackpad is definitely something I will always a nice thing. Additionally the ability to launch QuickLaunch without having to click on the FMenu icon would be looking into, hopefully soonamazing.:#As for the second one, If I'm not exactly sure what you meancould set a global OS X shortcut to do this or something. What do you mean by "whether people have posted"? Posted what? Wall posts? Please clarifyMy life would be complete.Or perhaps some kind of quicksilver intergration with the QuickLaunch feature.Oh the possibilities.thanks again! --[[User:LensovetLoudestnoise|lensovetLoudestnoise]] 17:14:47, 11 February 2 April 2007 (ESTEDT)Basically:Hey there, I think the Fmenu icon text box should have status indicationsnow gain focus as soon as the QuickLaunch panel gets focus as of the latest version (2.5). So if someone posts on your wall, it would be nice I'm still looking at implementing a system-wide shortcut for getting Quicklaunch to have a number or something appear by or on , however. Hopefully in the icon to let you know.next version :) [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 01:49, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
== Future Features Status Updates with Profile Pictures? == So, obviously, Growl shows the FMenu app icon in the notification. Would it be possible to change that icon (in the Growl notification) to the Facebook profile picture of the person the notification is referring to? This wouldn't apply in all situations, but it would work amazingly well for status updates. (Can you tell I'm a Twitteriffic user?) Also, personally, I don't care much for the "now" that is inserted in the status update messages. I think it throws off the flow of some updates, since people don't expect it to be there. But seriously, this is an amazingly great app, and it's head-and-shoulders above the other amateur-ish work that's being done with the Facebook API. Thanks. --Thomas Duesing--[[User:138.38.226.204|138.38.226.204]] 22:48, 13 May 2007 (EDT):Thanks for the encouragement! I've just checked in a change that allows you to choose the phrase inserted into status update messages [http://fmenu.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fmenu/GNotifier.mm?r1=47&r2=46&pathrev=47 to be anything you want].:As for your other suggestion, it's definitely doable, but I think I'll hold off that for a bit. Currently I'm working on crash-proofing the app (and preventing memory leaks), ignoring bad results coming from the server, and supporting infinite sessions so you have to log in once...forever. I'm also adding upcoming events and groups to Quicklaunch. Look for a new release this week!:Thanks again. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 02:03, 21 May 2007 (EDT)::The release is out and will let you change the phrase used in the notification as I mentioned. Using photos from friends' profiles is something I will look into for the next version. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 01:49, 5 July 2007 (EDT) == Delayed sleep == Hi -- I posted this over on the Facebook FMenu Users page, sorry for the reposting, but it's unclear where bug reports should go... When I have FMenu running, there is a 27-28 second delay between initiating sleep and when the system actually starts sleeping. The screen goes blank, but the mouse cursor remains on the screen. After the delay it starts sleeping normally. Without FMenu running, sleep is immediate. No messages in system or user logs. Here is my configuration: PB G4, OS X 10.4.11, FMenu 3.0, Growl 1.1.4 == Bug 3.1 ==
Not sure if this is feasibleAs of 10th June 2010, roughly, but it would be fantastic if you could do things launching FMenu 3.1 via login items or through normal launch causes the program, eapplication to hang.gThe icon is grey and the QuickLaunch bar appears. poke specified peopleSometimes this flashes constantly and then dies after 5 minutes or so. Or if Activity monitor on Intel says nothing is wrong, but G5 says that wasn't possible, it should be fairly easy to link to application is not responding.I have tried deleting the relevant page - pref and the /poke.php? bit makes that easyapplication and reinstalling, right? Just a thoughtbut nothing improves. --[[User:82.43.144.131|82.43.144.131]] 18:48, 12 February 2007 (EST):This is definitely doablealso has an issue on my G5 Mac. I'm thinking of using keyboard modifiers for each action – for example, pressing option-enter instead of enter to send a message, ctrl-enter to poke, etc. What do you think? [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 20:47, 12 February 2007 (EST)
:This Was checking little snitch activity, and FMenu is similar trying to communicate with the question above I thinkapi.facebook.com, but would it be possible to make the keyboard shortcuts usable without having to click on then after some minutes the menu icon ie. being able to open et services stops the quicklaunch panel (which i think is great) - david cconnection.::I really want this as well, so I will try to get it into the next release. It have Facebook Notification installed aswell and that is definitely doableworking fine. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 23:08, 12 February 2007 (EST)
== Duplicate notifications ==
I keep getting NOTE! A system restart made the same notifications over login window appear and over. I have moved my interval up to 30 seconds thinking it could have been cause by too frequent of an interval but I am continuing to see duplicate messages. It's a series of 5 or 6 messages, same messages each timeall works now.
