is there anyway to do like a drop down menu in the tool bar?
for example when you are in the program editor and you hit [F3] and then when you go to "dialog" you can open up another menu by hitting left?

thx for any help

I have sample program that can do this but, it could be a little difficult to edit if you don't know what you're doing, if you tell me what you want in each menu, I can make a program which will do this.

As far as I know, and I know ZB will be quick to correct me if I'm wrong, you can't make custom menus or toolbars with more than one level of nesting. You could, of course, draw your own menus by hand, but that could get hairy quickly.

Never mind, I'm crazy, DarkerLine is right and I was just utterly confused, sorry about that.

For custom tool bar menus and the like, use Toolbar...EndTBar with Title string[, label] and Item string[, label] .


Code:
ToolBar
Title "Menu 1",label1
Title "Menu 2"
Item "Item 1",label2
Item "Item 2",label3
Item "Item 3",label4
Title "Menu 3",label5
EndTBar


In this Toolbar example, the Title command needs a label unless it is immediately followed by one or more Item commands need label(s).

As for sub-menus such as those used on the Home screen or program editor, it can not be done without an ASM/C program for which I have forgotten the name to.
