Is there a way to include picture rings in a shortcut menu, just like the Point Style and Line Style rings in the Plot Properties or Curosr Attributes menu for an XY Graph?

Not really. You can make your own popup VI that pops up on a right click
event. You'll have to program the VI so it pops up at the correct location.

Thanks for the reply Wiebe!

There is a problem with the approach you suggested. Though the event structure recognizes menu activation and selection, it does not recognize mouse moving from one menu item to the next so that one pop up VI can be closed and the next one opened.

Hi Ravi,

you can detect the mouse-right-click and simulate the menu by a popup-vi! No need todetect any mouse moves as there is no real menu shown...

Thanks Wiebe and GerdW! It was a lot of work upfront but it worked out great.
