Hi, I use the following code to show a popup menu

int nID = CXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu(&menu, TPM_RIGHTBUTTON|TPM_RECURSE|TPM_RETURNCMD, pt.x, pt.y, AfxGetMainWnd(),NULL,NULL,pBars);

My question is the menu items are all disabled, since I don't have a command handler. With MFC I can disable CMainFrame::m_bAutoMenuEnable to have them enabled, but with XTP, it does not work.

Please advise.

Thanks

Jeff

I solve it myself by adding TPM_NONOTIFY flag.

I would like some help with this problem also....menus is always grayed out...I can't seem to fix it...

As usual, it seems to work in the examples, but I can't see why...

I am trying to invoke it is the view of an MDI app. Here is my code

void CVanGoghView::OnRButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
{
// TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default

CScrollView::OnRButtonDown(nFlags, point);

ClientToScreen(&point);
CMenu mnu;
mnu.LoadMenu(IDR_RCLICK_OBJECT);
//owner window is set to 'this', which means it gets the WM_COMMAND messages...
CXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu(&mnu, TPM_RIGHTBUTTON , point.x, point.y, this, 0, 0, gpTheVGMainFrm->GetCommandBars());
}

thanks,

Brad

I also tried this, and it doesn't work...

CMenu mnu;
mnu.LoadMenu(IDR_RCLICK_OBJECT);
mnu.EnableMenuItem(ID_OBJECT_LINK_LABEL, TRUE);
//owner window is set to 'this', which means it gets the WM_COMMAND messages...
CXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu(&mnu, TPM_RIGHTBUTTON , point.x, point.y, this, 0, 0, gpTheVGMainFrm->GetCommandBars());

You shall have a command handler for the grayed command.
