<H3>Description</H3>
|
|
|
|
|
This is a button that when pushed pops up a menu (or hierarchy of
|
|
|
|
|
menus) defined by an array of <A href=Fl_Menu_Item.html#Fl_Menu_Item><TT>
|
|
|
|
|
Fl_Menu_Item</TT></A> objects.

|
|
|
<P>Normally any mouse button will pop up a menu and it is lined up
|
|
|
|
|
below the button as shown in the picture. However an <TT>Fl_Menu_Button</TT>
|
|
|
|
|
may also control a pop-up menu. This is done by setting the <TT>type()</TT>
|
|
|
|
|
, see below. </P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The menu will also pop up in response to shortcuts indicated by
|
1999-01-27 11:45:11 +03:00
|
|
|
putting a '&' character in the <TT>label()</TT>. </P>
|
1999-01-13 22:28:54 +03:00
|
|
|
<P>Typing the <TT>shortcut()</TT> of any of the menu items will cause
|
1998-12-29 17:21:17 +03:00
|
|
|
callbacks exactly the same as when you pick the item with the mouse.
|
1999-01-27 11:45:11 +03:00
|
|
|
The '&' character in menu item names are only looked at when the menu is
|
1999-01-13 22:28:54 +03:00
|
|
|
popped up, however. </P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>When the user picks an item off the menu, the item's callback is
|
|
|
|
|
done with the menu_button as the <TT>Fl_Widget*</TT> argument. If the
|
|
|
|
|
item does not have a callback the menu_button's callback is done
|
|
|
|
|
instead. </P>

|
|
Fl_Menu_Button::Fl_Menu_Button(int x, int y, int w, int h, const char

|
|
|
|
|
Creates a new <TT>Fl_Menu_Button</TT> widget using the given position,
|
|
|
|
|
size, and label string. The default boxtype is <TT>FL_UP_BOX</TT>.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The constructor sets <TT>menu()</TT> to <TT>NULL</TT>. See <A href=Fl_Menu_.html#Fl_Menu_>
|
|
|
|
|
<TT>Fl_Menu_</TT></A> for the methods to set or change the menu. </P>

<H4><A name=Fl_Menu_Button.~Fl_Menu_Button>virtual
|
|
|
|
|
Fl_Menu_Button::~Fl_Menu_Button()</A></H4>
|
|
|
|
|
The destructor removes the <TT>Fl_Menu_Button</TT> widget and all of
|
|
|
|
|
its menu items.
|
|
|
|
|
<H4><A name=Fl_Menu_Button.popup>const Fl_Menu* Fl_Menu_Button::popup()</A>
|
|
|
|
|
</H4>
|
|
|
|
|
Act exactly as though the user clicked the button or typed the
|
|
|
|
|
shortcut key. The menu appears, it waits for the user to pick an item,
|
|
|
|
|
and if they pick one it sets <TT>value()</TT> and does the callback or
|
|
|
|
|
sets <TT>changed()</TT> as described above. The menu item is returned
|
1999-01-27 11:45:11 +03:00
|
|
|
or <TT>NULL</TT> if the user dismisses the menu.
|
1999-01-15 01:14:01 +03:00
|
|
|
<H4><A name=Fl_Menu_Button.type>void Fl_Menu_Button::type(uchar)</A></H4>
|
1999-01-13 22:28:54 +03:00
|
|
|
If <TT>type()</TT> is zero a normal menu button is produced. If it is
|
|
|
|
|
nonzero then this is a pop-up menu. The bits in <TT>type()</TT>
|
|
|
|
|
indicate what mouse buttons pop up the menu. For convienece the
|
|
|
|
|
constants <TT>Fl_Menu_Button::POPUP1, POPUP2, POPUP3, POPUP12, POPUP13,
|
|
|
|
|
POPUP23</TT>, and <TT>POPUP123</TT> are defined. <TT>
|
|
|
|
|
Fl_Menu_Button::POPUP3</TT> is usually what you want.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>A popup menu button is invisible and does not interfere with any
|
|
|
|
|
events other than the mouse button specified (and any shortcuts). The
|
|
|
|
|
widget can be stretched to cover all your other widgets by putting it
|
|
|
|
|
last in the hierarchy so it is "on top". You can also make several
|
|
|
|
|
widgets covering different areas for context-sensitive popup menus. </P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The popup menus appear with the cursor pointing at the previously
|
|
|
|
|
selected item. This is a <I>feature</I>. If you don't like it, do <TT>
|
|
|
|
|
value(0)</TT> after the menu items are picked to forget the current
|
|
|
|
|
item. </P>
