winapi - how to enable popup-menu to communicate with WM_MENUCOMMAND instead of WM_COMMAND? -

what read menu must have menuinfo.dwstyle flag set mns_notifybypos, did is:

menuinfo menuinfo; memset(&menuinfo,0, sizeof(menuinfo)); menuinfo.cbsize = sizeof(menuinfo); hmenu hpopupmenu = createpopupmenu(); getmenuinfo(hpopupmenu, &menuinfo); menuinfo.dwstyle |= mns_notifybypos; setmenuinfo(hpopupmenu, &menuinfo);

and next proceed adding items:

insertmenu(hpopupmenu, pos, mf_byposition, id , "do command");

next track it:

trackpopupmenu(hpopupmenu, tpm_centeralign | tpm_returncmd, cursorpos.x, cursorpos.y, 0, hwnd, null);

but has no effect, compiles without error clicking event till send wm_command

you need set fmask fellow member of menuinfo construction tell scheme fields want set/get.

e.g.

menuinfo.fmask = mim_style; getmenuinfo(hpopupmenu, &menuinfo); menuinfo.dwstyle |= mns_notifybypos; setmenuinfo(hpopupmenu, &menuinfo);

also note docs say:

mns_notifybypos menu header style , has no effect when applied individual sub menus.

so possible won't work anyway popup menu.
