@window menus shared by 2 scripts but shows only 1 #235049 21/11/11 02:30 AM

OP maroon Hoopy frood Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 2,127	Is there a way for alpha.mrc and omega.mrc to both have a menu for a @window? If only one of the two scripts is loaded, that @window will show the right-click menu for that loaded script, but is there a way so that if both scripts are loaded, that only the highest loaded script's menu would appear in the rightclick menu. i.e. if both scripts had this menu in them: menu @test { test $scriptname :halt } and you want the right click menu to only have the test line showing for the topmost script, not for both of them? thanks

Each relies on deciding if the current script is the topmost loaded: Code: alias -l showmenu { var %competing = FULL_FILE_PATH if ($script(%competing) == $null) return 1 var %i = 1 while (%i <= $script(0)) { if ($script(%i) == $script) { return 1 } if ($script(%i) == %competing) { return 0 } inc %i } } The first way to display the menu involves a conditional in the menu event, it is evaluated each time you call for the menu: Code: menu @window { $iif($showmenu,topmenu) .item:echo item } The second is to use groups, and decide which menu to show when either script is loaded: Code: #group1 on menu @window { topmenu .item:echo item } #group1 end on *:load:{ if ($showmenu) { enable #group1 disable #group2 } else { disable #group1 enable #group2 } } Last edited by Loki12583; 21/11/11 06:04 AM.
