[Request] Popup Menu Pro

Ok I think it's been high time the popup menu had the ability to incorporate Icons next to the selection text. Like the Menu options you can assign an Icon to the selection.
Anyone want to take up the challenge?

You can do this by using a subapp (another frame of your app) and then have it use buttons and cleverness...

I like using THAT method more... why? Because it doesn't pause the game like the popup object does...(which is something I don't want to have happen)

Yes, the only reason to make another popup extension is if that one doesn't pause the game...since any pop-up that pauses the game is basically useless. I mean, it's nice for apps, but not for games.

I think if you check the option "run while resizing" in application properties then it won't pause the app.

It depends on the condition. As far as I've tested it, the application wont pause (with "run while resizing" on) if the condition is [color:#FF0000]red[/color].

That is, I still have a lot of conditions to test. But for instance, the application wont pause if you let the popup open when you click. It will pause if you let the popup open via a key.

(also, can someone inform me with the red and black conditions. I seem to have missed a big explanation at an update.)

Red conditions are true events, black conditions are fake events.

The difference is defined in Getting the most of the Multimedia Fusion's runtime engine in great detail, starting with:

Fusion runtime makes a distinction between a true event and a fake event.
A true event starts with an event-driven condition. A event-driven condition is called by the system when the event actually happens, for example a click on the mouse button. Non-event-driven conditions are simply evaluated at each loop. Only a small number of conditions are truly event-driven.

Popup menu with icons could be nice for applications developers. And it could be nice too to have the possibility to set the bold/italic/color of items too.

Windows components are not designed for games but they are designed for applications.

Wow, I just replied to a post that is 1.25 years old!

it'll drop the framerate, though, which also goes for the application menu and when the window is dragged

EDIT: oh wow

Wanted to thank you a bunch for mentioning this, because as a side effect scrollbars behave much better.
