Question about: menu position

[mLipok]

Here is screenshot from _GUICtrlMenu_CreateMenu.au3 example:

 

My questions are simple:

1. Why this menu appears on the left from this window ?
2. How to force it to appear inside the window ?

I was tired at night, so I make many typos - hope all fixed :)

mLipok,

When I run that example script the menu does appear inside the window - in fact, all of the menus are left-justified with respect to the actioned menu item.

Thanks for checking.

So this look like an issue in my system ?

I would like to hear other members to see what result they have.
And of course the main question remains: why is this happening, and how to fix it?

 

btw.
In this case I use Windows 10 Home.

mLipok,

This suggestion is all I could find with a quick search - perhaps worth a check to see what is set there?

Bingo !

Solution:

explorer shell:::{80F3F1D5-FECA-45F3-BC32-752C152E456E}

And changed to:
Left-handed (Menus appear to the right of your hand.)

Many thanks.

 

Maybe somebody know how to change this setting via Windows Registry settings ?

btw.
This is good subject to post here:

I do not take this task as my self-esteem of English is still low

There are a few reg files here that should be of help. Should be able to convert to AutoIt

And so today I'm happier, thanks to you both

Hello. 

You also can use this way.

Global Const $SPI_SETMENUDROPALIGNMENT=0x001C
Global Const $RightAlignment=True
Global Const $LeftAlignment=False
_WinAPI_SystemParametersInfo($SPI_SETMENUDROPALIGNMENT,$LeftAlignment)

 

Saludos
