Have you ever used GENMENUX, download it from the web ( http://www.aksel.com/genmenux/default.htm ) Read how to use it. Give a name to each pad, for example "inventory" and do the following:

ACTIVATE POPUP 'inventory'


>Hi,
>
>I'm working on a utility to document menus visually. I have software that will take a picture of the screen, but what I need is to be able to show a popup and then call the capture software.
>
>I have tried ACTIVATE POPUP, SHOW POPUP, and even MOUSE CLICK AT -40,0 PIXELS to open popups but none seem to work.
>
>I dont want to count on KEYBOARD, because not all menus have keys assigned to them.
>
>One way that I have thought of is to use the foundation class for shortcut menus to programattically create mockups of the popups, but before I dig into that, I would rather see whether I can specifically open the popups that I need to.

>any ideas?
