Manipulating menu options via the context menu
WINDEV and WINDEV Mobile support two types of drop-down menus: - main window menus.
A main menu is always associated with a window. This menu can be displayed under the window's title bar. For more details, see Managing main window menus.
- custom context menus.
The user can open a context menu by pressing the right mouse button. For more details, see Custom context menu.
A drop-down menu (main or custom context menu) is composed of one or more options and sub-options. Each option runs a WLanguage code. For example: In the editor, you can handle menu options in the same way for both main menus and custom context menus. To handle the menu options, simply edit the relevant menu. To edit (or display in the editor):  The main menu of a window:- open the relevant window in the window editor.
- select one of the menu options. The options and the sub-options are automatically displayed.
- A customized context menu: under the "Ventana" pane, in the "Barras y menús" group, pull down "Menús contextuales" and select one of the existing context menus.
