Menu accelerators - changed behavior
Posted: Thu Oct 25, 2007 06:33 PM
In the following sample try to press ALT-T and then T. Previously it just moved the hilite bar cyclically through the two menuitem. Now it just activates the first one. Is it possible to go back to the previous behavior?

Code: Select all Collapse
#include "Fivewin.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oWnd, oMenu

    MENU oMenu
        MENUITEM "&Test"

        MENU
            MENUITEM "&Test1";
                     ACTION MSGINFO( "Test1" )
            MENUITEM "&Test2";
                     ACTION MSGINFO( "Test2" )
        ENDMENU
    ENDMENU

    DEFINE WINDOW oWnd;
           MENU oMenu

    ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd

    RETURN NIL

Enrico,

We have not modified anything there.

In fact those are default Windows behaviors, unless there is some kind of conflict.

Enrico,

In Vista the first Alt+T opens the pulldown menu, then pressing T again fires the first menuitem action

Enrico,

Win98 behaves exactly as you describes, moving from one menuitem to another without firing the action

But XP and Vista execute the action

But I had W98 behavior under XP using some earlier FWH version.

But it's not so important, don't worry.
