I would set script of the menubutton to :
on menuPick pWhich put the text of me into TESTO
switch pWhich case (line 1 of TESTO)
if line 1 of TESTO is "play" then -- do something put "stop" into line 1 of TESTO else put "play" into line 1 of TESTO -- do something end if set the text of me to TESTO break case (line 2 of TESTO) beep 1 break end switch
end menuPick
However it would be very useful to have a "MenuPickNumber" returned by Revolution any time a menu item (or a sub-menu item) has been clicked, So, we could easily change the text of the button and let the script unchanged (for example when we have a menu issued in different languages).

There's no reason to test for the current menu item values -- RR will return the correct menu item name, depending on what was in it when the user chose it. If you had it set to "Stop" then simply call your stop function, if you had it set to "Play" then simply call your play function. Make sense?

I had a similar problem like you, where I wanted to check/unckeck a menu item before the menu is shown. And indeed I was unable to do this anywhere else then the menubar group's script on OS X. I worked around this by using a "if the target = "view" then" script. It might be time for a feature request?
Where would you put the 'if the target = "view" then' script? I tried checking 'the target' in the menubar group script but it returned the name of the menubar group rather than the name of the menu that was selected.
In terms of when you have to set the menu items -- a very long time ago I wrote the Menu Manager for the Mac II, and unless something drastic has changed under OSX, there's no way to change menu item names "on the fly", i.e. while a menu is down (not without writing your own MenuDefProc). That means that you have to set the menu items before the menu goes down. The right place to do this is in the menu's (or menubar's) mouseDown handler. Make sure to "pass mouseDown" after you've set your menu items.
