    Question Moving A Menu

    Is it possible to move a menu down from its default position to a new one. I want to do this preferably at run-time, and I do not mind if API calls are used.
    I am developing a skinning module for part of my A-Level computing project. And this presents the problem of the menu appearing above the border of the skin (in this case, a Mac skin)

    This is what I have already have:



    And this is what I want :



    Note, that if you can provide a method which will allow me to change the width of the menu in question, it would be helpful. The skin is able to be changed, and some have bigger border widths than others. I do not want the menu to overlap the borders. This is because I currently use the horrible method of creating Image controls at runtime.

    Thanks

    Re: Moving A Menu

    Sorry for bumping this thread (I am not sure if it's allowed or not), but I need an answer, and the thread was on page 3 . And from past experience, people look on page 1, maybe page 2, but not page 3.

    So... Thread Bumped.

    And just to clarify, All I want to do is stop the menu being displayed in its default position (at the top of the form), and display it lower on the form. (lets say for example 20 pixels down). I need help on doing this.

    I guess it's better to bump after a long while then creating a new thread

    You could replace the top-level Menus with Labels or something similar and popup sub-menus "from" theme.
