      The button has a menu, by either long-clicking or dragging down you can show the menu (or by carefully clicking the little arrow, if present).

      If you write a button with a + in it, the actions after the + will only be performed after a long click or a drag down. Standard buttons will follow that with Show popup menu, "menu name" or with Show hidden popup menu (no arrow), though Pesala was known for buttons that had other actions after the +.

            I still can't figure out how to make this multi function dropdown button................

            I can make button for single function but want to save space with a button with 3 to 4 multi functions.

            Thank you very much.

              NEW QUESTION

              Opera v.xx

              I have 2 USB standalone version installed onto the same Window 8 system

              ( Opera A & Opera B using the same installation .exe file )

              I am fine to make button with Opera A by paste & go the make button command just onto the address bar.

              But on Opera B , not accept. When paste & go onto address bar the make button commaand

              Error say:

              Invalid address

              Check that the address is spelled correctly, or try searching for the site.

              Search with Google

              My button is like this ( which is accepted in Opera copy A ) opera:/button/delay,10,,S-E-N-D&Delay,%20600%20&%20Email%20Clear%20Formatting%20&%20Delay,%20200%20&%20Open%20Font%20Dialog%20&%20Dela............etc.

              Why Opera copy B not accepted ? ( I make the button just paste & go onto the address bar )

              I use the same command immediately paste & go in Opera A, it is okay to let me make custom button.

              Hope there is a solution in where in Opera to adjust any setting.

              Thank you very much.
              Edmond

Standard buttons will follow that with Show popup menu, "menu name" or with Show hidden popup menu (no arrow), though Pesala was known for buttons that had other actions after the +.

                IF I have my custom buttonss like this :

                Button2, "Delay"=Delay, 10, , "D e l l" & Email Clear Formatting & Delay, 200 & Open Font Dialog & Delay, 600 & Focus next widget .......& Send mail & Delay, 600 & Send queued mail

                Button2, "蘋果"=Go to page, "http://hk.apple.nextmedia.com/open/footer/news/3626368/", 1

                How I am to group them into single button ?

                I have seen belows but just do not know how to make correctly in my situation :

                Button0, 1325210100="New contact + Show popup menu, "New Contact Menu""

                Please give me some hints so that I can puzzle around in my toolbar.ini

                Thank you very much.
                Edmond.

                  First, a button involving a "+" can only have 2 functions. And - being only one button - can only show one label. Any functions before the "+" are only executed on a simple click, functions after the "+" are executed on a long click. Really, that should be all you need to know - though I wouldn't put a function that includes a Delay after the "+" as the button may still be pressed.

                      No, that isn't a menu. Leave out the "Show popup menu".

                            Hi Sgunhouse,

                            sorry it does not work.............

                            Is there any other link I could refer regarding making Opera button with button can multi function ?

                            For example like this one, I am trying to make a single button containing 3 to 4 different website in this singel button.

                            Thank you very much.

                              You can use great extension "Button generator by Vectronic (My Opera community's ex-member) for Opera 12:
                              https://app.box.com/s/5hkuqlgb9dpcej9r4qc2xis7sz0jep6c

                              It's more useful than a web-based buttons generator.
