Menubar removal, delete, hide

[Nologic]

I'm looking for a method in which I can remove say the menubar from Notepad while a script is running.

I've seen stuff to add and remove items on the menubar...but thus far failed to find a way in which to remove the menubar its self.

Thanks ahead of time.

I have no idea, so in desperation I would do something like this

#include <guiconstants.au3>
#include <constants.au3>
#include <misc.au3>
HotKeySet("{F6}", "fake")

While 1
    
WEnd
Func fake()
    ConsoleWrite("in fake" & @LF)
    If Not WinExists("Untitled -") Then Exit
    While BitAND(WinGetState("Untitled"), 16) = 16
        Sleep(80)
    WEnd
    $np = WinGetPos("Untitled -")
    $G = GUICreate("Untitled", $np[2], $np[3], $np[0], $np[1])
    $cs = WinGetClientSize($G)
    GUISetState()
    $ed = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 0, $cs[0], $cs[1])
    GUICtrlSetData($ed, ControlGetText("Untitled -", "", "Edit1"))
;winsetstate("Untitled -","",@SW_MINIMIZE)
EndFunc  ;==>fake

and then I would hope no-one who would knows better is watching.

#include <GuiMenu.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

_Main()

Func _Main()
    Local $hWnd, $hMain

    ; Open Notepad
    Run("Notepad.exe")
    WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")
    $hWnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
    $hMain = _GUICtrlMenu_GetMenu ($hWnd)

    For $x = _GUICtrlMenu_GetItemCount ($hMain) - 1 To 0 Step -1
        ConsoleWrite("Removing: " & $x & @lf)
        _GUICtrlMenu_RemoveMenu ($hMain, $x)
    Next

EndFunc   ;==>_Main

Of course

You gave me an idea with that function you wrote, about how to solve my problem at http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=59684
