I have several context menus that's been built using _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup() and _GUICtrlMenu_AddMenuItem(). When using _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup() it returns the identifier of the clicked item, sure. But it blocks the main loop while the menu is open. When using _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup($MNS_MODELESS) it returns immediately (of course), but I cannot figure out how/where to read the item that was clicked. Is there a Windows Message (WM) somewhere that is triggered? I've spend an entire day trying to figure out how to do this, but I'm not getting anywhere. My google fu is depleted (I must have tried like hundreds of script variations today), I'm about to smash my keyboard and just go to bed, and abandon the entire endeavor of making pretty menus and go back to using Koda and forget about using menu icons, colors, etc. Anyone wanna help me out with how to read the clicked item? Before I smash my keyboard, please... Example script here: #include <GuiMenu.au3> #include <WinAPIError.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> GUIRegisterMsg($WM_CONTEXTMENU, "_WM_CONTEXTMENU") Global $idMenuItem = 10000, $counter = 0 Global $hGUI = GUICreate("Menu test", 400, 300) Global $hListview = GUICtrlCreateListView("", 2, 2, 396, 200) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ;~ Global $hMenuContext = _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup() Global $hMenuContext = _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup($MNS_MODELESS) _GUICtrlMenu_AddMenuItem($hMenuContext, "Menu item", $idMenuItem) Global $hTimer = TimerInit() Do If TimerDiff($hTimer)>200 Then $counter += 1 ConsoleWrite($counter & " " ) $hTimer = TimerInit() EndIf Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Func _WM_CONTEXTMENU($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam) #forceref $hWnd, $iMsg, $lParam Switch $wParam Case GUICtrlGetHandle($hListview) ConsoleWrite( @CRLF & "_GUICtrlMenu_TrackPopupMenu = " & _GUICtrlMenu_TrackPopupMenu($hMenuContext, $wParam, -1, -1, 1, 1, 2) & @CRLF) EndSwitch EndFunc

Greetings forum, Hi develop this script, to use context menu with listview. It's work fine, run and click with left or right mouse button, you see on Console the id from item. If you click none, the id is -1, like this: $NM_RCLICK[-1] $NM_RCLICK[-1] $NM_RCLICK[2] $NM_RCLICK[1] $NM_RCLICK[0] $NM_RCLICK[1] That is correct. But if you uncoment the line: GUIRegisterMsg($WM_CONTEXTMENU, "WM_CONTEXTMENU") You have to click with left button (over item or none) and after click with right button. LeftButton is to update $HOSTS_INDEX. RightButton is to open ContextMenu. Exist another way to update $HOSTS_INDEX? Example: Call WM_NOTIFY every time WM_CONTEXTMENU is called? I ask this, becouse i cant understanding why $HOSTS_INDEX is not updated when WM_CONTEXTMENU is uncomented. Someone can explain or help me?

Greetings, I try work with WM_CONTEXT, I take from help's example, and modify to generate a custom context menu to each control (ListView, TreeView or another control).

Here's the code I have, pulled from the examples and a couple things added. I've been trying to implement something like this in one of my scripts with no luck. So I went to the basics and decided to just get this part working. #include <GuiMenu.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Global Enum $idOpen = 1000, $idSave, $idInfo _Main() Func _Main() ; Create GUI GUICreate("Menu", 400, 300) GUISetState() ; Register message handlers GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND") GUIRegisterMsg($WM_CONTEXTMENU, "WM_CONTEXTMENU") Global $listview = GUICtrlCreateListView( "test1|test2|test3|test4", 5, 5, 390, 290 ) Global $row1 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem( "item1|item2|item3|item4", $listview ) Global $row2 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem( "test1|test2|test3|test4", $listview ) ; Loop until user exits Do Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE EndFunc ;==>_Main ; Handle WM_COMMAND messages Func WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $iMsg, $iwParam, $ilParam) #forceref $hWnd, $iMsg, $ilParam Switch $iwParam Case $idOpen _WinAPI_ShowMsg("Open") Case $idSave _WinAPI_ShowMsg("Save") Case $idInfo _WinAPI_ShowMsg("Info") EndSwitch EndFunc ;==>WM_COMMAND ; Handle WM_CONTEXTMENU messages Func WM_CONTEXTMENU($hWnd, $iMsg, $iwParam, $ilParam) #forceref $hWnd, $iMsg, $ilParam Local $hMenu Local $selected = GUICtrlRead( GUICtrlRead( $listview ) ) If $selected = 0 Then Return 1 $hMenu = _GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup() _GUICtrlMenu_InsertMenuItem($hMenu, 0, "Open", $idOpen) _GUICtrlMenu_InsertMenuItem($hMenu, 1, "Save", $idSave) _GUICtrlMenu_InsertMenuItem($hMenu, 3, "", 0) _GUICtrlMenu_InsertMenuItem($hMenu, 3, "Info", $idInfo) _GUICtrlMenu_TrackPopupMenu($hMenu, $iwParam) _GUICtrlMenu_DestroyMenu($hMenu) Return True EndFunc ;==>WM_CONTEXTMENU I added this to the main function: Global $listview = GUICtrlCreateListView( "test1|test2|test3|test4", 5, 5, 390, 290 ) Global $row1 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem( "item1|item2|item3|item4", $listview ) Global $row2 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem( "test1|test2|test3|test4", $listview ) and added this to wm_contextmenu: Local $selected = GUICtrlRead( GUICtrlRead( $listview ) ) If $selected = 0 Then Return 1 The rest is pulled straight from the example script for "_GUICtrlMenu_CreatePopup()" Basically I only want the menu to show up if something is selected inside the listview. The problem is that it won't show up at all when I have the coded added to WM_CONTEXTMENU. I checked $selected with a traytip and it shows the info correctly.. and if nothing is selected it always displays 0. I'm not sure how to do this.
