Menu Questions...
23 Oct 2016 02:06:26 pm

So the Menu() command is my weapon of choice for creating user interfaces about 66.67% of the time. When I don't use it, it's because I need multi-layered menus, like the ones you get when you hit [MATH], or [prgm]. Is it possible to do this with menu() or any other single command?

example code:

WORKS:

Code:

Menu("name","a",a,"b",b,....

DOESN'T WORK:

Code:

Menu("layer1","a",a,"b",b,"layer2","ab",ab,"bb",bb,...

Code:

Menu("layer1","layer2","a",a,"b",b,"ab",ab,"bb",bb,...

[/code]

I don't believe there is a way to do that using an OS feature, you'd probably need to use some sort of ASM command. If you want to have multiple menu's like on those menu's, you'd have to make a custom one, using text commands and your own cursor.
