POP MENU Command

  • Article

Restores the specified menu bar definition that was placed on the stack with PUSH MENU.

POP MENU MenuBarName [TO MASTER]

Parameters

  • MenuBarName
    Specifies the name of the menu bar whose definition is pulled off the stack. The specified menu bar can be user-defined or the Visual FoxPro system menu bar.
  • TO MASTER
    Restores the first menu bar definition pushed onto the stack, and then clears the stack.

Remarks

When used with PUSH MENU, POP MENU lets you save a menu bar definition, make changes to the menu bar definition, and then restore the menu bar definition to its original state.

Menu bars are placed on and removed from the stack in last-in, first-out order.

Menu definitions take up memory, so every POP MENU should have a corresponding PUSH MENU to make sure your application's memory usage does not grow unnecessarily.

Example

In the following example, the system menu bar definition is pushed to the stack and then modified. The original system menu definition is then restored by popping it off the stack.

PUSH MENU _MSYSMENU
SET SYSMENU TO _MFILE, _MEDIT
POP MENU _MSYSMENU
