[flexcoders] Detecting click of menubar on root

[Paul Steven]

I am creating a menubar that does not have any drop down items and I am not
sure how to detect clicks on these "root" menu items.

 

The following function only appears to detect clicks on drop down items

 

private function menuHandler(event:MenuEvent):void  {

                Alert.show("Label: " + [EMAIL PROTECTED] + "\n" + 

                    "Data: " + [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Clicked menu item");

 } 

 

I basically just have a one tier menu as follows:

 

Help | Configure | Quit

 

Thanks in advance
