Gene, Take a look at Push Menu Dave
-----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gene Wirchenko Sent: 11 December 2015 00:44 To: ProFox Email List <[email protected]> Subject: Menu Redefinition Dear Vixens and Reynards: How do I change the main menu on the fly in my app and have the changes stick? Actually, I have just solved this, but I have no idea why my change works. My menu setup code has set sysmenu automatic set sysmenu to _medit I then define various pads on _msysmenu and popups on the pads. This code has worked fine for nearly twenty years. The problem is that I now want to be able to change the menu. When my setup menu code is executed, it works in that I can see that the menu does change. However, as soon as it returns out of one of the methods in the execution stack, the menu reverts to what it was before. My solution was a lucky guess. I inserted push menu _msysmenu between the two set commands. Note that I do not have a pop menu anywhere. Why do menu changes get thrown away sometimes? Why does my change work? The docs are rather less than clear in this area.
