corz Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Hi. I already have context menus (for example, when a user right-clicks any file in explorer) but I have lots of options I want to add, and would like to put them in a submenu, like WinRar, Winzip, and so on do; something like Explorer's "New", "View", and "SendTo" menu items. Is there a way to do this in AutoIt? ;o) (or nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently talented fool..

corz Posted April 18, 2008 Author Posted April 18, 2008 I can't see anything in that pdf that would help me create a context submenu. I'm preferably looking for a way to do it in AutoIt, if possible. If I have to code a shell extension dll, fair enough, and if anyone could point me at some helpful documents, I'd appreciate it - my own searches are coming up blank.;o)(or nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently talented fool..
corz Posted April 18, 2008 Author Posted April 18, 2008 I did find this..http://www.monctoncomputerservice.com/reve..._inc/cmext.htmlWhich is what CMenu (An AutoIt utility) uses. It's not a bad solution, but I'd still prefer something I can have inside my application, if possible.;o)(or nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently talented fool..
