Pass a delimited list into the form for a "wheel like" selection. Meant to be used as a quick selection utility. I'm really not sure why I built this. I had an idea and had to run with it. Do with it what you will.

• Simply pass two (required) arguments (the delimiter and the list) into the exe and the interface will display in the center of the screen loaded with your data set.
  • ex: WheelSelect.exe "," "option a,option b,option c"
  • an optional third parameter can be an output file path
    • this will override the OutputLocation setting in the App.config.
  • ex: WheelSelect.exe "," "option a,option b,option c" "c:\temp\wheelselect.txt"
• Use the up/down arrow keys or the mouse wheel to scroll through the list, or type some letters as a keyword search.
• Push the Enter key when you have the desired option selected and the value will be saved to a file to do what you want with.

The App.config has settings that allow for some customization.

• OutputLocation The location the data is written to when the Enter key is pressed. Default is c:\wheel_selection.txt.
• OutputMethod Decides if the output should be appended or overwritten. Must be either Append or Overwrite.
• ClearOutputFileOnStart Decides if the output file should start empty. true or false.
• ClearOutputFileOnEscape Decides if the output file should be cleared on the Escape key press. true or false.
• SyncWithWindowsTheme Decides if the UI should follow your Windows Theme setting found in Settings > Personalization > Colors > "Choose your default app mode"
• DefaultTheme Decides which theme to use if you choose not to sync with the Windows Theme settings.

The following are color customizations and can be a valid value of the System.Drawing.Color struct or a non alpha hex code.

• LightModeWindowBackgroundColor Sets the background color of the interface when in light mode.

• LightModeSelectedTextColor Sets the text color of the primary selected value when in light mode.

• LightModeOffset1TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 1 position above/below the primary selected value when in light mode.

• LightModeOffset2TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 2 positions above/below the primary selected value when in light mode.

• LightModeOffset3TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 3 position above/below the primary selected value when in light mode.

• DarkModeWindowBackgroundColor Sets the background color of the interface when in dark mode.

• DarkModeSelectedTextColor Sets the text color of the primary selected value when in dark mode.

• ModeOffset1TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 1 position above/below the primary selected value when in dark mode.

• DarkModeOffset2TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 2 positions above/below the primary selected value when in dark mode.

• DarkModeOffset3TextColor Sets the text color of the value(s) 3 position above/below the primary selected value when in dark mode.
