I am playing with Intuition menus. It seems that the HIGHIMAGE style of highlighting only works for Image items and not Intuitext items. I've created an Intuitext menu item with Flags = HIGHIMAGE | ITEMTEXT. I've supplied the ItemFill pointer and a SelectFill pointer. When the menu drops the ItemFill text is displayed as expected. When the mouse pointer is moved over the item it seems that the SelectFill text is overwritten on top of the ItemFill text. Thus the text is unreadable - since both strings are visible simultaneously, on top of one another. I guess Intuition forgot to erase the ItemFill text before zapping the SelectFill text in there. Image MenuItems using SelectFill seem to work fine. I've never seen anyone use this methods of highlighting and I guess I now know why. Is this a bug, a feature, or am I hosed up in some way? -------------------- John Lindwall johnl@tw-rnd.SanDiego.NCR.COM The above opinions are mine, not my employer's.
