 Posted: Sat Jul 19, 2008 4:10 pm Post subject: Close Menu doesn't work |
 |
|
I can't get the function Close Menu to work. I've updated to the latest nightly as of 7/18/08, and no luck.
Essentially, I need to have it so when you select something on a menu, every menu (usually 2-3 menus are open) including the top menu that had something selected on it, needs to close, so, I bootleggedly tried this:
| Code: |
plotscript, closeallmenus,begin
close menu(0)
close menu(1)
close menu(2)
close menu(3)
close menu(4)
close menu(5)
close menu(6)
close menu(7)
close menu(8)
close menu(9)
close menu(10)
end
|
What's supposed to happen:
When you select something on the menu, it runs a different script that ends up calling closeallmenus, then displays a textbox. So, all menus (well, 0-10) should close, then the text box should display on screen immediately.
What's happening instead:
You select something on the menu, nothing visually happens. Hit ESC a few times to get out of the 3 menus that you're in, the text box appears.
Any idears, or did I find another bug?

Read the documentation carefully: closemenu and most other menu commands take menu handles and menu item handles. These are not ID numbers, they are unique numbers assigned to each existing menu/menu item.
Anyway, what you want is
| Code: | plotscript, closeallmenus, begin
while (top menu) do (close menu (top menu))
end |
If your textbox doesn't appear, then I'm betting you forgot to turn on the "Allow Gameplay and Scripts" bit on the menus. Without this, the triggered script is not actually run until the menu is closed.

I'm pretty sure I tried something like that, but I'll give it a shot with what you posted. I'll be here complaining if it didn't work out.

Yes, still having issues. Discussing it on IRC, I'll post here if we find the problem (replying for archival purposes).
