 |
item tag identifies the item whose attributes you want to return.
The default is to return the menubar attributes.
|
 |
menubar is the reference to a menubar in a VI.
You can obtain this refnum with the Current VI's Menubar function.
|
 |
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs.
The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurs before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.
 |
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
|
 |
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0.
If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
|
 |
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
|
|
 |
submenu tags are the submenu item tags if the item has a submenu.
|
 |
menubar out is a duplicate of menubar used to pass the refnum to other Menu functions.
|
 |
item name is the string that appears in the menu.
|
 |
If enabled is FALSE, the menu item is grayed out.
|
 |
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces.
Right-click the error out indicator on the front panel and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
 |
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
|
 |
code is the error or warning code.
If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
|
 |
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
|
|
 |
If checked is TRUE, the menu item has a checkmark next to it.
|
 |
short cut is the keyboard equivalent of selecting this menu item with a mouse.
short cut is typically a combination of the menu key with one other key. In Windows, the menu key is <Ctrl>. For Macintosh, the menu key is <Command>. For Sun, the menu key is <Meta>. For Linux, the menu key is <Alt>. You also can optionally include the <Shift> key.
The menu key being implicit, short cut is described by the following parameters:
 |
shift, if TRUE, indicates that the shortcut has the <Shift> key associated with it.
|
 |
key describes the key associated with the shortcut.
