HidePopup Method?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
Does anyone know how I should go about hiding a popup menu? I am showing it like this:
        Set Popup = frmMain.cb.Add("Popup", xtpBarPopup)
              Popup.Controls.Add xtpControlLabel, ID_TITLE, "Label Title"
              Popup.Controls.Add xtpControlButton, ID_BUTTON1, "Button 1"
              Popup.Controls.Add xtpControlButton, ID_BUTTON2, "Button 2"
        Popup.ShowPopup
Now, the CommandBars control is located on an MDI form (frmMain). The Popup is displayed when the user right-clicks on the MDIChild window. If I left-click inside the MDIChild window, the popup does not disappear as expected. So, I would like to hide it manually. How can I go about doing this?

	What event is the code in? Check that you are only displaing it if right-clicked.

	SuperMario, I am 100% sure that the code behind the popup menu is correct. I just tried on a different system, and it is working fine there. Meaning that the popup menu disappears when left-clicking the MDIChild form. Both systems are using Windows XP Pro SP2... but I will try to isolate the problem and report back. Thanks.

	I have been unable to reproduce the problem systematically, and now it does not occur at all. I will blame this on a flakey driver issue! Thanks.
