Find a Menu with no underlining

[pammi 0]

Hi all,

I need to click on a menu that is added during application runtime. Since its a runtime menu it doesn't have a underlining(when ALT is pressed).

So is there a way to click on the menu during runtime?

WinMenuSelectItem()

Hi Zedna,

To use WinMenuSelectItem(), we need underlined menu items that contain a '&' character to indicate the underlining.

For ex. WinMenuSelectItem("[CLASS:Notepad] ", "", "&File", "Page Set&up..." )

But in my scenario there is no underlining of the menu as its added during runtime.

Not true.

I tried the following on notepad, still no luck

WinMenuSelectItem("[CLASS:Notepad] ", "", "File", "Page Setup..." )

I tested this on my Czech Windows with Czech item texts and it works.

Opt('WinTitleMatchMode',2)
WinMenuSelectItem("Notepad", "", "&File", "&Page Setup..." )

If menu items don't have ampersand then it works too.
