Hello All,
I can't believe I am having trouble with something so basic: selecting/unchecking an application menu's subitem.
Normally, to navigate and select items in an applications menu, I just send the keycodes e.g.
'Av - to select the View menu drop-down
and then if I wanted to select the subitem All, I would just code it all like this:
'Ava
This works reliably and fast HOWEVER,
I would like to uncheck a toggle (only if it is checked)
It is the first and only Item in a View menu -->
Always on Top
Selecting a after 'Av will check/uncheck this but I need to check it's status and then uncheck it if is checked:
The menu listdisappears in the application as soon as I switch applications, so I can't drag QM's reticule onto itt. When I use the Acc reticule and look through every item in the outline, that menu doesn't show up.
I think it may have to do with the Control-Specific Action option in QM but I can't get the reticule on it and the but- syntax doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much.
