Brian,

Return to the REALbasic web site and you will have (now) a simple page to download all the documentation / availables examples.

Wear your glasses first because there is plenty poupmenus...

Also, a little logic is welcome.

How can you execute a MenuItem if you do not provide a MenuHandler for it ?

So, at your convenient place, add a MenuItem (Command-H), type a MenuItem name or choose one from the PopupMenu and place code there. Run, see the enabled MenuItem ?


At least, if you are not able to enable a Font MenuItem, how can you enable say... Open, Save, Print (all flavors) and all your special MenuItems ?


For the future, maybe it is a good idea to write Memos to yourself; those memos will contains one feature per page (say: How do I create a Open, Open As... MenuItem - design and code for all kind of data, FileType included / How do I create standard Edit operations (Cut, Copy, Paste): code that do that for all kind of data / How do I deal with Drag And Drop (from / to Finder; from / to my own application - in the same window / in different windows) and so on.
Something between a memo and a Tutorial.


So, in the future, when you start to forget how you did it the last time, you only have to go back to your own <paper | digital> memory.


Cheers,


Emile


Remember: a FontMenu is a Menu like the others (File, Edit); a MenuItem (say Arial, Helvetica or... ZapfDingbats) is a MenuItem like the others (with an index property that allows you to know what MenuItem was fired since you have only one MenuItem for the whole FontMenu).
Yes, this is the answer to the next question.

BTW: did you make a search in the online REALbasic list ?

Before bugging the list I tried looking at the example in the
language reference (in the help menu)



The tutorial has a good example of this sort of thing, if I remember
rightly.
