Description

The Get menu item method command returns the name of the 4D project method associated with the menu item designated by the menu and menuItem parameters.

You can pass -1 in menuItem in order to specify the last item added to menu.

In menu, you can pass a menu reference (MenuRef) or a menu number. If you pass a menu reference, the process parameter is unnecessary and will be ignored if it is passed. If you pass a menu number, the command will take the corresponding menu in the main menu bar of the current process into account. If you want to designate another process, pass its number in the optional process parameter.

The command returns the name of the 4D method as a character string (expression). If no method is associated with a menu item, the command returns an empty string.
