Position of menu in window

Hi!

Is possible set the menu position to any place in a window with FWH?
I´m asking about it because I saw a program made in Delphi (argh!) that position the menu in footer window position.

Best regards
Maurilio

Maurilio,

>I´m asking about it because I saw a program made in Delphi (argh!) that position the menu in footer window position.<

Its probably better to let some other poor sap make mistakes like that. A menu at the bottom would really confuse and frustrate users.

Maurilio,

Its not Windows standard though you could implement it using a msgbar with items and popups.

Good idea, Antonio!

Thanks!
I´ll test any like this being aware to not confuse the user, like James said!
