Air: FlexNativeMenu: disable entire menu

Hi there,

Is there a way to disable an entire FlexNativeMenu in an AIR application?

I don't want to go through each item disabling them as which items are disabled/enabled will depend on the current user/what files are open etc...

Being able to do this would be really useful.

Thanks.

You can set the dataProvider to null, effectively disabling it. Then reset it when you want to be able to use the menu again.

Thanks for that.

That worked but the menu stayed there and kind of hung.

I found it worked better if I created menu xml with a root tag and the same base menu options but set to enabled="false" it worked better. I think that must be something to do with the application redrawing, or not, if the dataProvider is null.

Thanks again.

Andrew.
