Hi,

Currently evaluating the product...do you have any sample code for how to create popup menus? Something more substantial than what is in the FAQ?

Thanks

Yes we have a bunch of demo apps:
http://www.iconico.com/Un...oApps.aspx

Great stuff!

Thanks!

OK, one question....

I downloaded the sample menu application and it works just as expected.

However, when I try to write similar code in my application I get a compile error on the

Set o = .add("PopUp")

line in the InitializeMenus routine. Says that "add" isn't a method of the object.

What am I missing? I added the module-wide variables at the top and the UniMenu1 control to my form.

There must be something else...

Thanks

hard for me to say without seeing your project! I'd try starting at the demo project and modifying it.

Got it...

Had to declare my variables as:

Private mobjMenuSetA As UniToolbox2.Menus

instead of

Private mobjMenuSetA As Menus

Thanks!

One more question...

Is there a known issue with showing a MsgBox in the click event of a popup menu?

For example - in the sample app above I changed the

Debug.Print "UniMenu1_MenuClick() --", Menu.Caption

to

MsgBox "UniMenu1_MenuClick() --" & Menu.Caption

The popup menu then gets "stuck" in the top part of the form where the "traditional" menu bar goes.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Yes this is a bug and the workaround is to use a Timer with a tiny delay, this will sort out the rendering problem.

OK. Before or after the MsgBox. Got a sample?

Thanks for all your help with this, BTW.

On the menu click start a timer. When the timer completes open the MsgBox.

Still not getting it. Not sure how the Timer control can "delay" it like that.

I used..

Public Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

..but still no dice.

No don't use Sleep use a Timer.

On the menu click enable the Timer, and then when it fires show the MsgBox.

Got it. Had my Timer interval set to 0...

Need more coffee...

Thanks again!
