Common Question 38

How do I control and/or extend the built in popup menu system?

Refer to the demo or demo projects, example 127.

Also refer to the properties:

CustomMenu	0 = visible, 1 = grayed, 2 = hide
CustomMenuState	For Strings: 0=unchecked 1=checked For Popup: 0=nothing, n=1 based pos checked
CustomMenuLocation	0=top, 1=above separator, 2=below separator, 3=bottom
CustomMenuText	For Strings: 1 string=string item, 3 or more strings separated by \| delimiters to create popop
LastMenuIndex	Used only with PEWN_CUSTOMEMU notification message.
LastSubMenuIndex	Used with PEWN_CUSTOMMENU notification message.

And related events:

.NET: PeCustomMenu event
ActiveX: CustomMenu event
SDK/DLL: PEWN_CUSTOMMENU notification message.

To enable / disable the popup menu, use AllowPopup.

Note there are properties to show/hide our individual built in menu items. Such as MaximizeMenu
