One thing I think could be very useful:
when the drop down menu is open:
Left click on option from the menu to select an option and close the dropdown menu.
Right click on option from the menu to select an option and leave the dropdown menu open so we can run other options without the need to reopen the dropdown menu again.
possible?

With a right click, no. But this is already initially implemented using the ctrl key. Hold ctrl and click on the option and in this case the menu will not close, or rather reopened.

Win Conway Of course he reads.
I do not know what you have there constantly opens.Have you updated my repository? But the reminder window appears once every 250 'rare' runs of my scripts, no matter which ones. And if you click cancel, then no sites will open, but when you click OK, you force them to open.
Something tells me that you are not updating the repository.

I update reapack regularly for Yutani updates etc.
I never clicked OK at all, it just opens the sites, the console output window is till open when I return to Reaper.
If you want another donation then just ask, stop opening webpages randomly, it s a poor way to design scripts.
I donated, fine, you want more, just ask.

It shouldn't open. What version of the script do you have? v.2.04 +?
What version of Arc_Function_lua.lua do you have? Version 3.0.2+?

Great Tool - Thank You
thank you, Archie for your Script: Archie_Var; Popup menu(n).lua
what a great tool.
here are a few tips for new users.
CREATING YOUR FIRST POPUP MENU
- open action list
- it really makes set-up easier if you right click on action list window and disable "close after action on doubleclick/enter"
- now search pop
- run Script: Archie_Var; Popup menu(n).lua
- select 0 for main OR 1 for midi
- give the new menu a name - for example: ENVELOPES
- close the console output window
you should now see your Script: Archie_Var; Popup menu(ENVELOPES).lua showing in the action list window.
this is a good time to select that action and assign it a shortcut.
ADDING TO THE MENU
now, if you try running the program by keystroke WITHOUT the action list already open, then when you try to add a new command, you will discover that the Popup Menu program will *not* spawn the Action List window for you to select a command.
it will expect you know the command id that you want to add (which maybe you do) and you'll have to provide the command name you want to see.
you may find it easier to do the following...
- ensure action list open
- find and select the command that you want to add
- with mouse, change window focus by click on TCP or MCP or anything NOT the action window
- run your popup menu shortcut
- follow the prompts to add a command and hit the +
- the previously selected action list command will now be auto-filled by the script
- this is your chance to (re)name the script (read below for one idea on this)
- rinse and repeat
MODIFYING THE MENU
run your popup menu shortcut and follow the menu to rename, reorder and delete items and separators.
KEYBOARD JIU JISTU
when opening Popup Menu via shortcut, you can continue with the keyboard in one of two manners.
1. select using the Arrows, then press Enter. obvious and intuitive.
2. select using Unique First Character. less obvious and far more powerful.
say that you have created 'Script: Archie_Var; Popup menu(WINDOWS).lua' to the keyboard shortcut 'W'.
You could then name all subsequent entries to that menu, reserving the first character, like this:
w - MIXER
q - SCREENSETS - 1 / 2
e - PROJECT BAY
1 - REGIONS
2 - SNAPSHOTS
3 - UNDO
a - COMMAND a
s - COMMAND s
d - COMMAND d
if you start each with a UNIQUE letter, then you can string keyboard letters together to run commands.
- to open/close the MIXER, you simply type 'ww'.
- to switch between SCREENSET 1 and 2, type 'wq'.
- to open/close the PROJECT BAY, type 'we'.
you get the idea.
NOTE: if you re-use the same leading character, the command will not auto-execute. you will need to hit ENTER, because the script cannot know which of the two commands you wish to execute.
DIGGING A LITTLE DEEPER
after you have added a few commands and perhaps even a few separate menus, take a look at the reaper-Archie.ini file located in --> Reaper > Options Menu > Show REAPER resource path in explorer/finder...
this file is the list of all the menus you created. (thank you for centralizing this, Archie!)
so, if you ever want to 'reorganize' things, it is super easy to rename items and even to reorder them (cut and paste), just be sure to renumber the starts of lines AFTER all edits. this is far easier than it might first appear.
you may find that you prefer editing this file manually vs using the program interface, when doing any significant reorg.

Archie disappeared a year and a half ago, he doesn’t get in touch, so it’s probably not worth sending donations. In addition, we have sanctions the use of PayPal, so we still need to choose a platform for accepting payments. If something goes wrong with his scripts, I will try to help

I'm sad to hear this bad news The script works well except that after 500 clicks it returns to a web page just that it's painful if we could remove this counter it would be good anyway Thank you

I'm on Windows 10.
When this happens, I get a pop-up window with an OK button.
Just hit ESC and the window goes away. YMMV.

This ain't working on Linux. When using Block/Label the label gets hidden.

Amazing script library. Using it all the time. Now I wanna structure some favorite plugins from LSP so I have them on a pop-up menu and boolin's tips on shortcuts - awesome!

this part above isn't necessarily true.
i have made several edits now, totally forgetting to renumber, and script doesn't even blink. it presents the menu items as they are ordered in the text file - top to bottom.
have tested with submenus and haven't yet been able to break it.
nicely done, archie. now this part below is necessarily true.
