Cannot add preference panes to group

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Ok, I tried to reduce the startup time by creating a startup group and adding apps that were getting loaded during login. I am unable to add preference panes, daemons, etc to the group so I can lazy load them as I don't really need them the very second I login. But when I navigate to Library/PreferencePanes, all the items under it are grayed out whereas I need to navigate well deeper into say: LazyMouse Preference pane > Content > Resources > LazyMouse but I can't even get past Library/PreferencePanes because they are grayed out. Drag-n-drop items is not enabled either. So, although I was able to add a few items to my startup group, I am really confused if it is reducing the startup time and saving me any time or is it really worth it. What's the reason adding preferences panes, daemons, etc is disabled? Without this option, I don't think this application is replete with features... Are the developers going to add these features to it?

Cannot add preference panes to group - Marco_Damaschi_516

From MaBaSoft: If you wish to add the LazyMouse background-only application to your group, please proceed as follows:
1. Open the LazyMouse.prefPane package by clicking its icon while holding the Control key and choosing Show Package Contents from the contextual menu.
2. Open the Resources folder in the Contents folder and drag the LazyMouseBG application to your group in the Application Wizard preference pane.
