Sub-menu for Drawmenu? - DrD - 01-17-2015 05:32 PM
Is there a function to implement sub-menu's? Once DRAWMENU() has created menu buttons, I would like to pop up a sub-menu, triggered from a menu button. How are sub-menu's accomplished?

Referring to the program's catalog soft button 'More' i would like to know this, too.
Using command 'Choose'? How to get the position of the choose box?
Thank you.

I tried drawing my own sub-menu's, but it was not worth the overhead. I then tried using choose boxes, triggered from the main menu, to supplement additional options. For my specific needs, there were only two additional choices needed in the sub's, so this idea worked well.
Sub-menus are going to be tricky, I'm afraid.

DRAWMENU() does only that -- draws a menu. You have to create your own keyboard/touchscreen handler to handle all user input.
It's quite limited compared to what you could do with the HP48, HP49 and HP50

Hello.
You can use the technique of Hp 48.50 or Ti 85.86 .
Each option DRAWMENU the first calls for a new DRAWMENU.
