I have finally figured out a solution (this is written in Phix, btw):
In key_cb:
if alt and find(base,"BCDILUX") then
string Yelp = "&Yelp"
Yelp[2] = base
IupSetStrAttribute(main_help_menu,"TITLE",Yelp)
reset_help = true
end if
<plus code to do what those alt-keys should>
In main_help_menu_open_cb:
if reset_help then
reset_help = false
IupSetAttribute(main_help_menu,"TITLE","&Help")
IupSetInt(main_help_menu,"ACTIVE",false)
IupSetInt(reset_help_timer,"RUN",true)
end if
In reset_help_cb (via reset_help_timer):
IupSetInt(main_help_menu,"ACTIVE",true)
IupSetInt(reset_help_timer,"RUN",false)
-- IupSetFocus(canvas) -- does not work
-- IupSetGlobal("KEY",K_ESC) -- does not work
if dumwin=NULL then dumwin=IupDialog(NULL) end if
IupShow(dumwin)
IupHide(dumwin)
The last two lines do produce a minor blip, but I can live with that.
My question is whether IupSetFocus and/or IupSetGlobal("KEY") should work
in these circumstances (instead of dumwin)?
