Hi Mark,

In the menuPick handler, the menuhistory of the button will give you the line number of the selectd menu item.

A combo box is supposed to show a list of items as text. You can't add checkmarks, unless you want to put a character in front of the menu item, such as a bullet or a diamond.

If you want to use checkmarks, you should use an option menu button.

Actually, I don't think that using any kind of menu button for fonts is a good idea. Can't you use a list field?

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille

In Rev's text formatting palette the Choose Font combo box always shows the font list in alphabetical order from the beginning.

In my font menu, I would like the font list to pop up at the currently active font (preferably check marked and in the center of the pop-up choices). How does one direct a menu to pop up from a specific item (the one that is checked, for example)?

Also:

How can you return the menuitem number from the menupick?

For example, "put menuitem 23 of button "fontz"" returns the font name, but how can one accomplish the reverse, and have the font name (pWhich) return the corresponding menuitem number (23)?

Thanks
Mark
