The menubar being on the OS can require coding consideration - and mouseDown rings a bell, if you have any further details Best wishes, Curry Kenworthy Radically Innovative Christian LiveCode Development "PASSION for Elegant, Efficient Code!" http://livecodeconsulting.com/ ___ 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

Re: Mousedown in Application Menubar Messages
I've not experienced any problems with the menubar group receiving a mouseDown message to adjust the menus based on context before they appear (LC versions up to 9.6.11 on macOS and Windows) A long time back, I did have an unnecessary 'wait 0 with messages' in my mouseDown handler and had instances where other messages fired before my mouseDown handler was done (or so it seemed).

Menupick messages are sent fine. Has anyone had a similar experience - I feel it may be due to the detail of how the menu-buttons are formatted in the group - but it might also be a bug in dp7? ___ 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
