MDI window

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

In the following sample, try to hit ALT-1 and you will get the system menu instead of the Changed1 menu action. If you hit ALT-2 you will get Changed1 menu action instead of the Changed2 one. You will also notice that the MDI Child icon is vanished at this point.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#include "Fivewin.ch"

FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oWnd, oMenu

    MENU oMenu 2007
        MENUITEM "Test&1" ACTION MSGINFO( "1" )
        MENUITEM "Test&2" ACTION MSGINFO( "2" )
        MENUITEM "Test&3" ACTION MSGINFO( "3" )
    ENDMENU

    DEFINE WINDOW oWnd MDI;
           TITLE "MDI Test";
           MENU oMenu

    ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd;
             ON INIT CREATECHILD( oWnd )

    RETURN NIL


STATIC FUNCTION CREATECHILD( oMdi )

    LOCAL oWnd, oMenu

    MENU oMenu 2007
        MENUITEM "Changed&1" ACTION MSGINFO( "1" )
        MENUITEM "Changed&2" ACTION MSGINFO( "2" )
        MENUITEM "Changed&3" ACTION MSGINFO( "3" )
    ENDMENU

    DEFINE WINDOW oWnd MDICHILD OF oMdi;
           TITLE "MDI Child Test";
           MENU oMenu

    ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd;
             VALID !GETKEYSTATE( VK_ESCAPE );
             MAXIMIZED

    RETURN NIL

Dear Enrico,

Yes, we noticed this behavior too, but we don't know yet why it happens

[Antonio Linares]

This is not the right solution and it just works partially, but it may be the start to fix it.

In Class TMenu Method Command():

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

METHOD Command( nCommand ) CLASS TMenu

   local oMenuItem // := ::GetMenuItem( nCommand )
   
   if Upper( ::oWnd:ClassName() ) == "TMDIFRAME" .and. IsZoomed( ::oWnd:oWndActive:hWnd )
      nCommand++
   endif  

   oMenuItem = ::GetMenuItem( nCommand )
   ...
 

Somehow nCommand is sent with a wrong value, thats why we need to modify it.

This workaround works for all items except for the first one

[Antonio Linares]

Using the mouse it works fine, so such fix such not be used with the mouse.

So we need to detect Alt (how?) or detect that the mouse is used.

[Antonio Linares]

If we check nWParam and nLParam from Class TMdiFrame Method Command():

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

METHOD Command( nWParam, nLParam ) CLASS TMdiFrame

   local lToolBar := .f.

   MsgInfo( nWParam )  

   ...
 

nWParam is different for Alt+... or clicking the mouse, but nLParam is the same (zero).

So, how to know if the keyboard or the mouse was used ?
