Get menu item style


Get menu item style ( menu ; menuItem {; process} ) -> Function result

Parameter	Type	Description
menu	Longint, MenuRef	Menu number or Menu reference
menuItem	Longint	Menu item number or -1 for last item added
process	Longint	Process reference number
Function result	Longint	Current menu item style

Description

The Get menu item style command returns the font style of the menu item whose number or reference is passed in menu and whose item number is passed in menuItem. You can pass -1 in menuItem in order to indicate the last item added to menu.

If you omit the process parameter, Get menu item style applies to the menu bar for the current process. Otherwise, Get menu item style applies to the menu bar for the process whose reference number is passed in process.

Note: If you pass a MenuRef in menu, the process parameter serves no purpose and will be ignored.

Get menu item style returns a combination (one or a sum) of the following predefined constants, found in the Font Styles theme:

Constant	Type	Value
Bold	Longint	1
Italic	Longint	2
Plain	Longint	0
Underline	Longint	4

Example

To test if a menu item is displayed in bold, you write:

 If((Get menu item style($vlMenu;$vlItem)&Bold)#0)

  `...

 End if
