ShowPopupMenu Method

[Microsoft Agent is deprecated as of Windows 7, and may be unavailable in subsequent versions of Windows.]

Description

Displays the character's pop-up menu at the specified location.

Syntax

agent.Characters("CharacterID").ShowPopupMenux, y

Part	Description
x	Required. An integer value that indicates the horizontal (x) screen coordinate to display the menu. These coordinates must be specified in pixels.
y	Required. An integer value that indicates the vertical (y) screen coordinate to display the menu. These coordinates must be specified in pixels.

 

Remarks

Agent automatically displays the character's pop-up menu when the user right-clicks the character. If you set AutoPopupMenu to False, you can use this method to display the menu.

The menu remains displayed until the user selects a command or displays another menu. Only one pop-up menu can be displayed at a time; therefore, calls to this method will cancel (remove) the former menu.

This method should be called only when your client application is the active client of the character; otherwise it fails. To determine the success of this method you can call it as a function and it will return a Boolean value indicating whether the method succeeded.

   If Genie.ShowPopupMenu (10,10) = True Then
      ' The menu will be displayed

   Else 
      ' The menu will not be displayed

   End If
