dantay9 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) I am using ModernMenu.au3 by Holger and the code is way over my head. I want to remove the tan border or rim around the black menu items, but I can't seem to find out how to do it.There is more to my code than this (such as on event hovering), but this is a stripped down version of it that reproduces the problem. Here is an example of the border:#include "ModernMenuRaw.au3" $GUI = GUICreate("Gecko Web Browser", 700, 50) #Region Create Context Menu _SetMenuBkColor(0x000000) _SetMenuIconBkColor(0x000000) _SetMenuTextColor(0xFFFFFF) _SetMenuSelectBkColor(0xBD4908) ;rgb = 0x0849BD _SetMenuSelectTextColor(0xFFFFFF) $GUIContextMenu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("File") _GUICtrlCreateODMenuItem("Exit", $GUIContextMenu) #EndRegion Create Context Menu GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI) While 1 $Msg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $Msg Case -3 Exit EndSwitch WEndCan someone wade through this script and tell me where I can fix this?

dantay9 Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 *bump* I would like a completely black menu item. Is there a way to remove the border, or is the border automatically there on every menu item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantay9 Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) I did find out that I can use _WinAPI_SetSysColors($COLOR_MENU, 0) to adjust the menu to the color that I want. Sadly, this adjusts all menus, not just the menu I want. I guess I could switch the menu colors back and forth depending on whether or not the correct window is active. Is this the only way, or is there some way to set the menu background color for a specific menu to black since it is ownerdrawn?

dantay9 Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) I found a temporary fix for the problem. It works, but isn't pretty. Global Const $OriginalMenuColor = _WinAPI_GetSysColor($COLOR_MENU) Func WM_ACTIVATE($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam) If $hWnd = $GUI Then If $wParam = 0x00000000 Then _WinAPI_SetSysColors($COLOR_MENU, $OriginalMenuColor) ;change menu color to system color ElseIf $wParam = 0x00000001 Then _WinAPI_SetSysColors($COLOR_MENU, 0) ;change menu color to black EndIf EndIf Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG EndFunc Func OnAutoItExit() _WinAPI_SetSysColors($COLOR_MENU, $OriginalMenuColor) ;change menu color to system color EndFunc If someone finds a way to change the color of a specific menu, please tell me.

GEOSoft Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 This will set all the items of a sub-menu but I have nothing to set individual menu items. Func _Menu_SetColor($hMenuid,$hColor) Local $Hmenu = GUICtrlGetHandle ($hMenuid) Local $Hbrush = DllCall ("gdi32.dll", "hwnd", "CreateSolidBrush", "int", $hColor) $Hbrush = $Hbrush[0] Local $Stmenuinfo = DllStructCreate ("dword;dword;dword;uint;dword;dword;ptr") DllStructSetData ($Stmenuinfo, 1, DllStructGetSize ($Stmenuinfo)) DllStructSetData ($Stmenuinfo, 2, BitOr (0x80000000, 0x00000002)) DllStructSetData ($Stmenuinfo, 5, $Hbrush) DllCall ("user32.dll", "int", "SetMenuInfo", "hwnd", $Hmenu, "ptr", DllStructGetPtr ($Stmenuinfo)) $Stmenuinfo = 0 EndFunc ;<===> _Menu_SetColor() George Question about decompiling code?

dantay9 Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 That works great. I just needed a way to remove the border on the menus for a single menu bar. Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
