Disappearing quick launch menu items
|
I created some menu items to be used when I right-click over a word and the scheme works great. I moved the menu items to a dedicated folder so that I could make them available or not as the situation demanded by enabling/disabling the folder.
However, once the folder is disabled (and the menu items disappear from the context menu), re-enabling the folder does not restore the items to the context menu.
Perhaps this is a design feature, and if so, I hope that the way I attempted to use it is considered in later versions. |

This sounds like a bug. Can you post the XML of your menu class within [CODE] tags so that I can try it here?

Here is the XML from the folder. When I created the items they were originally placed under the session window. I then created the class folder and moved the items there. I did not mark the folder as a menu folder.
| Code: |
<class name="Menus" id="13573">
<menu priority="135740" id="13574">
<caption>kr</caption>
<value>c 392 %selword;#8c 392</value>
</menu>
<menu priority="135750" id="13575">
<caption>kd</caption>
<value>ral %selword;#9c 392</value>
</menu>
</class>

Moving any or all of the menu items elsewhere (to their original place, for instance), makes no difference. It seems that, as far as CMUD is concerned, they don't exist.
This is not true, however. I can right-click on a word and then go into the Settings Editor and select Execute script for the menu item, and it will function as is if it were quick-launched.
I am using CMUDPro 2.36 |

And I'm assuming that if you enable the class and then exit CMUD and reload your session, then the quick menu works again?

Here is the thing, while running some tests to try to pin down this thing to respond to you, everything started working again. I added an item to the folder using the #MENU command on the command line and specifying the class folder. It placed it correctly and, suddenly, the other items in the folder appeared on the quick launch menu. Now, the enable/disable works. Re-doing the steps that caused the problem have no effect. Everything works now. So I don't know what to say. The items weren't there and now they are and they reappear when the folder is re-enabled. Perhaps logging off set everything to work correctly.

OK, I start up my session today and when I try to use the quick launch items, I find they are not there. The class folder is enabled and the items are in the class and also enabled. They were on the right-click menu the prior session and I used them extensively. Now they are gone.
EDIT: Ok the items are back on the quick-launch menu. At this point, for lack of evidence, I must say that they are randomly appearing and disappearing. |
