SFTP Tab

[toloughlin]

Is there a way to add a toolbar button (next to "new tab" for example), that would do the same thing as right-clicking the tab & selecting Connect SFTP Tab?

I tried messing around with the .mnu files, but didn't have any luck.

Thanks!

Hello Tom,

You should be able to add the following line to the TOOLBAR section of your custom menu toolbar file:

TOOLBARITEM "MENU_TAB_NEW", "MENU_TAB_NEW_SFTP", , "New SFTP Tab", "New SFTP Tab"

Note that this will use the same icon as the "New Tab" button.

You will also need a string table entry for "New SFTP Tab" in the STRINGTABLE section of the custom menu toolbar file, if there isn't already one there.

"New SFTP Tab",  "Connect new SFTP tab using current session\nSFTP"

Since I used the default.mnu file as my starting point, this line was already in the STRINGTABLE section.

I was somewhat on the right track, but even with your suggestions, I don't get another button.

I put the line (string was already there), in both the default & allsystem.

Were you able to see another button?

Yes, I did see an added button. Did you get any error messages?

When my modification wasn't quite right, I would get a popup dialog warning that it couldn't find an icon or that the string table entry didn't exist.

Also, what version of SecureCRT are you running?

Thanks,

Ah, I see what I did wrong - I didn't assign it as a custom toolbar.

Thanks!

Glad to hear it's working for you.
