I have an application with a mainwindow and a modeless dialog, each having a menubar. Mnemonics work fine as long as a modeless dialog menubar option doesn't have a mnemonic which is the same as the mainwindow menubar option. In that case, the mainwindow option takes precedence. I expected that the dialog which had input focus would take precedence. Is there a way around this? -- Pete Boysen pboysen@iastate.edu Computer Supported Learning Group gmjpb@isuvax.bitnet Iowa State University Computation Center Voice: (515)294-6663 -- Pete Boysen pboysen@iastate.edu Computer Supported Learning Group gmjpb@isuvax.bitnet Iowa State University Computation Center Voice: (515)294-6663 Ames, Iowa 50011 Fax: (515)294-1717

So you can use menu mnemonics from dialogs, but you can't use the keyboard accelerators. Oh joy. Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...
