Portable Apps Menu

I was wondering if there was a way to place a folder on the main PA menu. I would like to place it on the right hand side along with the folders for Documents, Music, Videos, etc.

I am not sure if something like this can be done, or if there is a limit to how many times you can do this.

Thanks for the help,
G

you can do it with the mods

you can do it with the mods, there´s actually a patch for 1.1 menu; you can customize the paths and add a new button http://ptc.kain-planet.de/details.php?file=283 .There´s a bunch of posts here on adding buttons like this one:
https://portableapps.com/node/12722#comment-81279 (oops, doesn´t work)- so I copy in all the post

"Resized Your icon from svn with icofox to 24x24. Fits perfectly into the standard icon theme for portableapps Wink So, for anybody else with Mod R3x
-> put a new folder called "icon theme" into your theme folder
-> rightclick download "appicon" from SVN
-> resize the icon to 16x16 oder 24x24 ( open in iconfx and delete the bigger sized icons, then save it as update.ico into the the new icon theme folder)
-> open the theme.ini and add the code

[CustomButtons]
0=BTN_Update

[BTN_Update]
Height=30
Width=120
Left=269
Top=370
Font=Tahoma
Margin=33
ColorR=255
ColorG=255
ColorB=255
Bold=1
Italic=0
Underline=0
StrikeOut=0
Caption=Update
PathToApp={THEME}/../../../../PortableAppsUpdater/PortableAppsUpdater.exe

[CustomImages]
0=IMG_Update

[IMG_Update]
Height=24
Width=24
Left=272
Top=373
Path=IconTheme\update.ico

In the default button arrangement, update button appears with icon just below the default buttons - perhaps the top/Left location has to be changed for one or two pics. :)"
just adjust the button name and path to your needs -I´ve made all the disposable lines strong.

For details ask again and look up the details on http://ptc.kain-planet.de/tutorial.php
