When adding new menu items to a menu, additional parameters may be included in the following statements:
MENU ADD POPUP, hMenu, txt$, hPopup, state&[, AT [BYCMD] position&]
MENU ADD STRING, hMenu, txt$, hPopup, state&[, AT [BYCMD] position&] [, CALL callback]
|
AT position& |
An optional position parameter that allows the programmer to specify an absolute position of the menu item within the popup menu, inserted immediately before the value of position&. Omitting this parameter causes the menu item to be appended to the menu at the "current position". Position values are indexed to 1. For example: ' Insert a new menu item at position 3 in the popup menu hPopup position& = 3 MENU ADD STRING, hPopup, "&Print", %id_Print, _ ItemState&, AT position& |
|
BYCMD |
The BYCMD keyword (also applicable to other forms of the MENU statement) changes the interpretation of position& to an identifier value, rather than an absolute position value. For example: ' Insert the "Print Setup" menu item before the "Print" menu item Position& = %id_Print MENU ADD STRING, hPopup, "Print Se&tup", _ %id_PrintSetup, ItemState&, AT BYCMD Position& |
|
callback |
(MENU ADD STRING only) The Callback parameter provides a mechanism to specify a Callback Function that is executed, to process %WM_COMMAND messages for the menu item. |
