In the following sample try to press ALT-T and then T. Previously it just moved the hilite bar cyclically through the two menuitem. Now it just activates the first one. Is it possible to go back to the previous behavior?
Code: Select all
#include "Fivewin.ch"
FUNCTION MAIN()
LOCAL oWnd, oMenu
MENU oMenu
MENUITEM "&Test"
MENU
MENUITEM "&Test1";
ACTION MSGINFO( "Test1" )
MENUITEM "&Test2";
ACTION MSGINFO( "Test2" )
ENDMENU
ENDMENU
DEFINE WINDOW oWnd;
MENU oMenu
ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd
RETURN NIL

Enrico,
We have not modified anything there.
In fact those are default Windows behaviors, unless there is some kind of conflict.

Enrico,
In Vista the first Alt+T opens the pulldown menu, then pressing T again fires the first menuitem action

But in some earlier FWH version it worked differently...

Enrico,
With XP I get the same behavior. Going to try with Win98...

Enrico,
Win98 behaves exactly as you describes, moving from one menuitem to another without firing the action
But XP and Vista execute the action

But I had W98 behavior under XP using some earlier FWH version.
But it's not so important, don't worry.
