Re^4: A click and hold button (Tk::bind clickon clickoff)

I don't have widgetdump on my release, and can't install new perl version.

Can you please explain on how can I edit Menubutton to add click functionality and to only invoke the menu on click and hold. Thanks

You don't need to install a new perl version, its a module, you install it, it lets you interrogate Tk widgets. `cpan -i Tk::WidgetDump` or `cpanp -i Tk::WidgetDump` or `cpanm Tk::WidgetDump`...

Thanks Well, the logic is exactly the same as I already described, so I don't think I can add anything else OTOH, this is beginning to sound more like a menu, so after looking at widget - Demonstration of Perl/Tk widgets, Menus : 1.

You might be able to learn some things about buttons if you look that the source, and that of Tk::Menu, about bind stuff and invoking and things like that	[reply] [d/l] [select]
