Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 2015 Sr2
Operating System: Windows 8

Hi,

I'm trying to use Labtalk to add a submenu to an already existing submenu. I've added my own menu along with 3 submenus and when I hover over a submenu I would like to add another submenu similar to how you can click file then new and then another submenu appears. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,

You can check out the "menu" object and related examples to learn how to add a new menu to existing submenus:

Is there a way to add the menus so they persist when closing origin? I have one menu item with three submenu items that I've added through custom menu organizer but I can only seem to add submenus to those submenus through the labtalk command line.

Hi,

You indicate that you built the menu using Custom Menu Organizer. With the custom Menu Organizer in Origin 2015 SR2, you can have 3 menu levels. That is, the main menu item and 2 levels of sub menus. and it persists between Origin sessions.



Do you want another sub-level of menus beyond that? Or are you trying to create the entire menu out of LabTalk? I'm just not sure which way you wish to go.

Popups vs items seemed to be what I was not doing correctly. Thank you for that picture it helped a lot. I was adding items instead of adding popup then item.
