Description
The SET MENU ITEM METHOD command modifies the 4D project method associated with the menu item designated by the menu and menuItem parameters.
You can pass -1 in menuItem in order to specify the last item added to menu.
In menu, you can pass a menu reference (MenuRef) or a menu number. If you pass a menu reference, the command will apply to all the instances of the menu in all the processes. In this case, the process parameter is ignored if it is passed. If you pass a menu number, the command will be applied to the corresponding menu in the main menu bar of the current process. If you want to designate another process, pass its number in the optional process parameter.
In method, pass the name of the 4D method as a character string (expression).
Note: If the menu item corresponds to the title of a hierarchical sub-menu, the method will not be called when the menu item is selected.
