Handle to DropDown menu item ?

[GertC]

Hi Kevin,

If you open a Dropdown Menu from File Edit etc, one can see id-numbers for the listed menu items appearing in the QM Status bar, but there is no window name associated with the menu so one cannot get a handle.

Is there perhaps still a way to use these id-numbers to make a choice in a macro ?

Thank you !

can get menu handle like so

Code:

Copy      Help

int w1=win("" "#32768" "notepad")

or

Code:

Copy      Help

int w2=wait(0 WV win("" "#32768" "notepad"))

by make a choice do you mean click a menu item?

In many windows can click standard menu items (standard menus have a class of #32768)
for this use qm function men
don't need handle to menu .Just need handle to main window
example

Code:

Copy      Help

int w=win("" "Notepad")
men 8 w ;;New Window
