Is there any way from within mwm to make root menus scroll? I have a root menu that contains more options than will fit virtically on the screen. What I would like to happen is that the menu scroll if the cursor is moved to the top or bottom of the menu. Is there a way to do this? Have I missed something in MWM?

Is there any way from within mwm to make root menus scroll? How about cascading? This works ok in mwm. Just make one of the entries in your menu point to f.menu "something". Doug Klein klein@ncd.com

If you can restructure your menu items into a hierarchy, then you can convert your root menu into a cascade of menus. Look at the f.menu function and the Menu { ... } structure in the .mwmrc file.
