Hello Xad,
How you would activate a menu and get its submenus all inside a virtual buffer?
I guess that it would be necessary to send a win message to the menu
and get the submenus, but I am not sure about how to perform this.
A peace of code would be apreciated but if this is not possible them
if you can explain breefely how it would work I would apreciate it
pretty much.
There are some apps I wanted to script that does not currently offer
access to their menu bars via alt key and arrows navegation.
Implementing a solution via virtual buffer might be a good
alternative.
Thanks,
Marlon
