Keeping context menu open even after clicking?

[Carl Mercier]

Hi,

I'm trying to add a context menu to my form that would contain only
items that can be checked. I would like the context menu to stay open
when the user clicks an item. This way, they wouldn't need to re-open
the context menu to check 5 or 6 items at once.

So basically, open the context menu, check a few items, then click out
of the context menu to close it.

Is it possible? I thought about reopening the menu after every click
but that seems like a stupid solution (and the flickering is ugly).

Thanks!

Carl

Hi Carl,

AFAIK it is not possible with standart Windows menus. They are designed to
work in the way they work.

But... rules are meant to be broken, aren't they
