popping up a menu

[Frank Ruiz, MD]

I would like to programmatically popup a menu when a user taps on the upper part of my form. This is my title area, although not a true title resource, thus the system will not handle a tap in that area. One solution I've tried is:

if (RctPtInRectangle(eventP->screenX, eventP->screenY, &rect) && bDrawMenu)
{
MenuBarType *menuP = MenuInit(DisplayMenuBar);
MenuSetActiveMenu(menuP);
MenuDrawMenu(menuP);
}

Then I look for winEnter and winExit events to appropriately set bDrawMenu.

This code seems to mimic the natural behavior of the system, but results in a memory leak. So, how can I properly deallocate the memory attributable to this resource, or alternatively have the menu popup without calling MenuInit ?

Regards,
Frank
