Hi,
I'm already using a commandbars PopupMenu in my application and it's working fine. Now I need to determine when a button is down and up. "Up" doesn't seem to be a problem because Execute event is fired when I release the button. But the difficult part (maybe piece of cake
 ) is to determine if the button is pressed (need to process something while holding button down) I really need this and prefer same look and feel as I already have (CB Popupmenu)Any advice / solution will be greatly appreciated
Thanks a lot in advance
*edit* ExecuteOnPressInterval for PopupMenu has been added in V15.1.2 (didn't work) but fixed in V15.1.3 ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 15.0.2 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) - SP 2 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 Zero replies is not an option.... |

I would have hoped that the ExecuteOnPressInterval property would have worked, but unfortunately it doesn't work for CommandBar controls in a popup menu :( I can't think of a good reason why it shouldn't, so maybe a support ticket is appropriate here?

This seems to do the trick (not tested to heavily though, so there may be issues I didn't anticipate): uploads/2676/PopupControlExecuteOnPress.zip - uploads/2676/PopupControlExecuteOnPress.zip ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 16.2.6 Platform: Windows XP - SP3 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

And I should say - it would be better still if ExecuteOnPressInterval worked when the controls are shown as part of a popup menu.

Hi Jason,
Thanks a lot for looking at my problem
In my current implementation I already have a timer to control some processes (only for some cases I need what I previously asked, only thing I need is execute a process during mousedown) I don't see how Execute event is going to help me (if ExecuteOnPressInterval worked like should...) to determine if user releases mouse button.
I will do some tests and report back inhere. Meanwhile support can also take a look at NOT working ExecuteOnPressInterval property
Thanks again

Just to be clear - my example code shows how to process repeatedly only while the mouse is down (like holding down on an updown ctrl button for example to increment/decrement a counter) Do you just need to know when the mouse is down initially (to start some kind of processing), and when the mouse is up initially (to end that processing)? This should be doable with minor modifications (I think I can make them if this is what you need). ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 16.2.6 Platform: Windows XP - SP3 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

Yes, that is what I need
Thanks

If you remove the .CloseSubMenuOnClick property set from my demo, then start the demo: 1) Click the button (the popup appears) 2) Click and hold on the "Test" item, notice the text at the top of the window - the timer code can call your function repeatedly (you can change the timer interval for different processing speeds). 3) Release the mouse - the popup should disappear. Is this what you need? ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 16.2.6 Platform: Windows XP - SP3 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

Hi Oleg,
Thanks a lot
 Question: After button is pressed (mousebutton is released), does Execute event still fire one time? If it doesn't I dont know when to stop process and this isn't solving my case. I need to know when mousebutton is released (or pressed) and have to check this in Execute event.
Thanks

If CloseSubMenuOnClick will be TRUE, Execute event will fire and will close popup. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg, I believe this is exactly what I need. Can you give me a date when this will be released? Thanks
