Hi Octavian Rasnita,
I am not sure whether you have tried this, but it works fine in my
script. I mean the text is printed in the status bar for menus with
submenus. I hope I get what you meant in your previous email correctly.
self->{OptionsMenu}->Append(-1, "When searching with special chars",
$self->{CautaDiaMenu}, "Text to appear in the status bar");
I hope it helps.
Regards,
bungsu
