Disable items with "Pop up menu"

Hi!

 

I am trying to use the command "Pop up menu" and it works almost fine.

My problem comes when trying to "disable" some menu items.

 

If I try something like below, "Item 3" is not disabled.

 

$vTestItems:="Item 1;Item 2;(Item 3"

 

The Language Reference says: "To disable an item, place an opening parenthesis (() in the item text."

 

I doesn´t work!

 

I am using v11 Beta 2 on Windows.

 

Please help me!

the Parenthesis should go after the item:
        $vTestItems:="Item 1;Item 2;Item 3("
you can also set keyboard short cuts with "/":
        $vTestItems:="Item 1/1;Item 2;Item 3("
        Now Control + 1 selects the first item

Kind Regards,

Hi Rickard,

Try to use Char(1) instead of "("
