RE: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items
As it is the pasta has several seasonings. 1) SQL 2)Regex. If you do any web stuff add the alphabet soup of html and JavaScript. Add the side dishes of lists, xml, json and you can see why this old brain did not have the pallet for any of the "C"s , "Java" or "php" grains that I would have to process in to pasta.

Re: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items
Hi Monte, thanks for responding and assuming that it might be possible with adjustments to the source code. Regarding Livecode Builder, i am afraid i am a hopeless case. ;) Tried so many times to follow the widget course and other resources, but it seems i will never understand that stuff completely. I was even able to adjust the source code of the clock widget to disable the day/night color switch. But as soon as ObjectC is involved i am lost. Anyway, one doesn't have to be able to do everything. Hey, i am very good in making fresh pasta. Okay that doesn't help me here. ;) All the best, Matthias - Matthias Rebbe Life Is Too Short For Boring Code > Am 02.11.2020 um 10:07 schrieb Monte Goulding via use-livecode > : > > Hi Matthias > > It would be possible to add to the library I think.

Re: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items
Hi Matthias It would be possible to add to the library I think. Should just be a matter of setting an action which posts a callback on the button of the NSStatusItem. If you want to have a play the library is open source ;-) Cheers Monte > On 2 Nov 2020, at 4:09 am, matthias rebbe via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi > > i am currently working on a Mac OS app which makes use of the MacStatusMenu > Library. > Now i need a way to track a click on a Mac Status Menu icon which does not > have any menu items. > > Is this somehow possible? > > Currently i am only able to track the click of a menu item of a Mac Status > Menu. > But if no menu item is set and i click directly on the status menu icon, i do > not get anything back. > > Any ideas? > > Regards, > Matthias > > > > - > Matthias Rebbe > Life Is Too Short For Boring Code > > > ___ > use-livecode mailing list > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription > preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items
Hi i am currently working on a Mac OS app which makes use of the MacStatusMenu Library. Now i need a way to track a click on a Mac Status Menu icon which does not have any menu items. Is this somehow possible? Currently i am only able to track the click of a menu item of a Mac Status Menu. But if no menu item is set and i click directly on the status menu icon, i do not get anything back. Any ideas?
