Open Umenu without using mouse
Is there anyway to show the content of a umenu withou using the mouse and clicking over the it? I mean if possible using a message or any other method.
Thanks
sure, it only depends where you want to show menu items.
for example dump to console, to message, comment ?
You probably mean to make it popup without clicking. afaik only with the Max C Api you can call the mousedown method of the umenu programmatically.
or use 11.clicks to place mouse over umenu and execute click(s) ?
Yes I mean to make it popup without clicking. I`ve been trying to test 11.clicks but I couldn`t get it working for what I need.
I don`t want to select any specific item from the menu, just to show the popup menu (to see all items included) on screen without clicking the umenu object.
yes maybe, but not very elegant..
Is it possible also to popup hovering the mouse over the umenu (without clicking)?
you only chance is to dump umenu and display it's contents
in some other object, it also depends how many items it holds.
dump message can be trigerred by any action, being hover, script ...

hover exampe made with this objects
