Check marks on custom run-time menus

[BowenM]

Is there a simple way to add a check mark for currently selected item on custom run-time menus?  

The only method I have found is to fire off of the "Shortcut Menu Activation?" event, grab the menu reference, and basically recreate the shortcut menu with the proper check marks based on boolean values.  This method just seems ... cumbersome for something that should (in theory) be fairly common. I can't help but think there is a better solution.

Thanks!

Hi Bown,

you can assign custom menus with the menu editor to your controls/VIs. They will be saved as rtm file.

Using the known tag names of such custom menus you can set the checkmark for your tags without rebuilding the menu on activation each time…

Oh. I feel silly now. I missed the "checked" option in "Set Menu Item Info".  Thank you.
