 Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 9:48 am Post subject: Menus |
 |
|
Whenever I try to open a menu, either a normal one or a context menu, I get the message "Unable to create popup window"
I couldn't find the string anywhere, but DFL has several "Unable to create x" messages, but not popup window...
Any idea where the error may be? Menus are a great thing to have  |

| What kind of menus are you trying to create? With HTMLayout popups or Win32 popup menus? If it is the latter you should ask in the DFL forum, as I am not proficient in DFL... |

| I see that these examples use some kind of behavior. I don't know if it is built in or external (the ones you were porting). If it is a built in behavior then some markup/css must be wrong on your side. If it is external it needs to be ported (correctly ). In the D wrapper you basically have two functions for popups. HElement.showAsPopup, which shows 'this' as popup using given element as anchor, and HElement.showPopup which shows given element as popup using 'this' as anchor. There are version of these functions that accept coordinates. (There is also hidePopup). I am using these in my application so I am pretty sure they work OK. |

The behaviors used by the menu example are:
menu-bar, popup-menu, menu, radio and check.
All these should be internal behaviors (there is a popup external behavior too. )
After I get the error, I can still see the content of the menu (the element I'm hovering over). |

| Can you use ddbg and see where the message is coming from? |

| dfl catches all exceptions... Do you know how this can be turned off? I'm using the tango backtrace hack, so that should give a nice trace. |

What am I saying? This is not an exception. It's a regular messagebox that is opened from only god knows where.. I've asked in the dfl forums: http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3806
Hope dfl has something to do with it |

| Maybe you could try searching inside htmlayout.dll. It could be some forgotten debug message |
