Thread: Creating pop up menus

ok i tried it, same result, still can use it limited times, it seems like after a certain number of times windows stops sending the message or soemthing like that

i am not sure.

Now do you mean it doesn't show up anymore or that it doesn't do anything when you select something?

Try adding the TPM_RECURSE flag to your TrackPopupMenu call like so:

Code:

TrackPopupMenu(hMenu,
                            TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_RIGHTBUTTON|TPM_RECURSE,
                            mouse_y,
                            mouse_x,
                            0,
                            hWnd,
                            NULL);

no same results it works like before

when i start the program up i can use the pop up menu but only limited amount of times and everytime its different how many times i can use it

but every button in the pop up menu works like it should

but as i said previously after using the pop up menu a certain time it stops working as in it won't even show up at all.

I tried the recurse still same results.

Are you sure mouse_x and mouse_y aren't being changed to something unexpected at some point in time. Have you tried uncommenting out the point.x, point.y and using them in TrackPopupMenu function?

I can't seem to recreate your problem, that's why I am asking this stuff.

hmm,

can I send you my code? will that be ok? its for my coursework and the code already does everything the coursework needs but this bug is very annoying.

I'll PM you with the zip file, pls don't release the code as I need to hand it in

Wouldn't be a problem at all. I will take a look at it tonight.

edit - hey the link doesn't work.

hey can u try it again?

the link should work now.

Thx
