Hiya -

I am trying to make a button that will list menu items (a menu button), but the help files for it are apparently out of date.

I have a handful of regular menu items that I use by right-clicking the appropriate window, which pops up the menu items along with the regular right-click options. The problem is, when I make a menu button, it automatically just shows those same menu items, but instead I want this button to have it's own options and no others. The help file makes it sound like this can be done with classes, but regardless of what class the button OR the menu items are in, the button just collects them all and spits them out unless the class containing the menu items is disabled (which won't work for me, as I want to be able to still right-click for those choices, but not have them appear in the menu button). Is there a way around this? Or maybe clarification of the outdated help file?

Here is the text, for reference:

Menu buttons are meant to link to user made speedmenus, so that is intended

Try using a multi-state button instead, that will allow to make a list of options separate from your speedmenu settings.

Using classes is a means of creating submenues without using states in speedmenu objects. (see #HELP #MENU)
I don't think it was intended for buttons of type menu.

As for the command script field... i think that is the value of the button
and i can confirm that buttons of type menu with a non null value, does nothing when clicked.
