Blocker Sent: den 7 april 2005 19:52 To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - Using Alt + letter with a Group Bar menu Hi all I set up a Group Bar style menu a while back using Razzak's great model. I'm now trying to create a new one for a client and add to it the ability to using Alt + letter to bring down an option. In all other menu styles in R:Base that support this (tree view, design menu bar, drop down menu buttons), R:Base goes by "level". In other words consider this menu: &First Choice Sub &1 Sub &2 &Second Choice Sub &1 Sub &2 &Final sub where & represents what get's underlined. In most menus, pressing Alt + F drops down the choices under the MAIN MENU choice, First Choice. Then you can press a 1 to select a sub-choice under it. With a group bar menu, pressing Alt + F does TWO things: it brings down the choices under First Choice AND it executes the choices under the sub-choice Final Sub! Is this a bug that others can replicate? As things stand now, EVERY option in the ENTIRE menu, main choices plus those under it, would have to have unique letters or numbers, limiting total number of choices to 36 unless we add in special characters. I find this BOTH in 7.1 and 7.5. David Blocker [EMAIL PROTECTED] 781-784-1919 Fax: 781-784-1860 Cell: 339-206-0261
