I like my Menubar to close if you click on anythink outside the menu. Like it is the default with many other GUIs.
I have the event function running when this happens, now I only need to find a function to close the CEGUI::Menubar.
Is there a function/way to do this?

Code: Select all

Are you absolutely sure you mean Menubar?

You probably want PopupMenu and this:

Yes, I mean the Menubar. Like this:

I would like any open Menu to close if I click in the grey array.

What would be the most elegant way to call closePopupMenu() on every PopupMenu except manually do it for each single one?

Solved it:

Code: Select all

menubar->subscribeEvent(CEGUI::Window::EventDeactivated,
        CEGUI::Event::Subscriber(&CeguiIcaf::inputCaptureLost, this));

Code: Select all

bool CeguiIcaf::inputCaptureLost(const CEGUI::EventArgs& e)
{
    const ActivationEventArgs &f = dynamic_cast<const ActivationEventArgs&>(e);

    CEGUI::Menubar *m = dynamic_cast<CEGUI::Menubar*>(f.window);

    for (int i=0; i < m->getChildCount(); ++i)
    {
       CEGUI::MenuItem* child = dynamic_cast<MenuItem*>( m->getChildAtIdx( i ) );
       child->closePopupMenu();
    }

    return true;
}
