not a workaround, but a Transcript.. errr..
Revolution term for the same thing (ie handling
menu messages) is
menupick
used for popups as well. Menus are actually all buttons in Rev.
sqb
from the docs:
Summary:
Sent to a button when a menu item is chosen from
the menu associated with that button.
Examples:
on menuPick theItem -- in a pulldown menu
if theItem is "Close" then close the defaultStack
else if theItem is "Quit" then quit
end menuPick
Handle the menuPick message to do something when
the user chooses a menu item from a button menu,
or chooses a tab in a tabbed button.
Thank you, Mark, for responding to my question.
Seems I'm a bit ahead of things here. I am in a
planning stage of how to address all the
concerns of the planned migration to Rev. I
remember, or I thought I remembered, someone on
this list a couple of years ago indicated the
"start using stack" did not work correctly.
Perhaps I got that all wrong.
In playing with a test conversion yesterday I
did run into a "DoMenu" script not working. Rev
instructions do say "DoMenu" commands won't
work. Is there a work a round for the "DoMenu"
thingie? Here is one example I'd like to keep
the functionality of if possible.
on doMenu what
if what "Compact Stack" then pass doMenu
if longToPath() is in the stacksInUse then
stop using this stack
send the params to HyperCard -- do the compact
start using this stack
else pass doMenu
end doMenu
