Thanks for the answer.
It's ok that it will not work when the menu is modified at run time; but I
think the menu_item access should work correctly as long as the menu is *not*
modified. (This is given in my case.)
Alternatively FLUID could generate the menu_item pointer in the .h file as a
function call (using Gregs recommendation) like :
#define PTimeBaseTEST (menu_PMenuBar->find_item("Settings/TimeBase/Test Time"))
That should work even on modified menus.
[OK, but only as long as the the menu_item name is not modified... :-( ]
Regards
Rainer
