Creating customized run-time menus

[RGSchmidt]

I am trying to create a customized run-time menu when I right click on a tree control. I can disable the existing run-time/pop-up menu but would like the ability to use a different customized menu.

I can simulate a run-time menu by using creating a VI that functions in a manner similar to the menu but would prefer the ability to create and process and customized run-time/pop-up/floating menu.

The menu is always of a fixed size with all items enabled. I do not need the ability to modify this menu within the application.

There is an LTR article by David Ritter called "Contextual Pop-Up Menu Programming" that shows a method similar to yours. It is well worth a look.

Thanks.

It looks like the approach I have taken in the past and will continue to use until NI adds the feature in LabVIEW.

Hi,

There is a 'toolkit' made by me that creates popup menus. Perhaps someone
can send it to you (I've send it to several people). I cannot send it to
you, the code belongs to my old employer (although I've send several copies
for free)...

Regards,

Wiebe.
