Tool to select which Addin's to load on EA Startup
« on: June 01, 2010, 05:54:27 pm »
Hello,
For our own EA Addin Develompement we wanted a tool where we can choose on startup which Addin's to load in EA.

Andreas set down and provides a free tool on our blog:

Feedback welcome - hope you enjoy it.

Daniel,

I just downloaded and registered your tool.
Comes in very handy while developing addins, thanks.

Any chance pressing the shift key could be made optional?
Personally I wouldn't mind the launcher to show up every time I start-up EA, iso only when I press the shift key.
Could be an option in the config file or something like that.

At which time? As separate application? At EA startup?

at EA-startup (if you press the shift key while starting up EA)

we took your input there is a setting now to turn it on and off

eaLauncher v0.5.3 has a setting:
DisplayOnShiftKeyOnly ->  ‚false‘ and it will display every time!

Enjoy
Daniel
