Function ShowMenuInCenterOfMonitor

Code:

Copy      Help

;/
function# $menu monitor [yOffset] [flags] ;;monitor: 0 primary, 1-30 index, -1 mouse, -2 active window, -3 primary, or window handle.  flags: 1 sync

;Shows popup menu in center of specified monitor.
;Returns 0. If flag 1 used and an item selected, returns 1-based line index.
;Error if menu does not exist.

;menu - menu name.
;yOffset - offset in pixels from screen center vertically. Typically it should be minus half of menu height.
;flags:
;;;1 - wait until the menu is closed.

;EXAMPLE
;ShowMenuInCenterOfMonitor "Menu16" -1 -100


RECT r
MonitorFromIndex monitor 1 &r
int x(r.left+r.right/2) y(r.top+r.bottom/2+yOffset)
if(flags&1) ret mac(menu "" x y)
mac menu "" x y
err+ end _error

In menu properties, select Mouse.
