B4A Class [B4X] [XUI] AS Popup Menu

This is a simple cross platform Popup Menu.

I spend a lot of time in creating views, like this and to create a high quality view cost a lot of time. If you want to support me and further views, then you can do it here by Paypal or with a coffee. :)

Fast example:
aspm_MoreOptions.Initialize(Root,Me,"aspm_MoreOptions")
 
aspm_MoreOptions.ItemLabelProperties.ItemBackgroundColor = xui.Color_ARGB(255,19, 20, 22) 'Change the Background Color of the item
aspm_MoreOptions.AddMenuItem("Share location",1)'Add item
aspm_MoreOptions.AddMenuItem("Settings",2)'Add item

aspm_MoreOptions.OrientationHorizontal = aspm_MoreOptions.OrientationHorizontal_RIGHT
aspm_MoreOptions.OrientationVertical = aspm_MoreOptions.OrientationVertical_BOTTOM
 
aspm_MoreOptions.ItemLabelProperties.BackgroundColor = xui.Color_ARGB(200,0,0,0)'black

At the bottom of my application there is a panel with several buttons, I put a menu button on the left side of that panel, but when I press the button so that the menu appears, it appears but on the top edge of my application, I have tried to Anyway so that it appears right on the menu button(BMMenus2) but I can't do it, please tell me what I'm doing wrong, this is the configuration of my menu and the code where I call it from the button:

B4X:
'*************** CONFIGURACION DE MENU *****
aspm.Initialize(Activity,Me,"aspm")
aspm.ActivityHasActionBar = False
aspm.OrientationVertical = aspm.OrientationVertical_TOP
aspm.Orientationhorizontal = aspm.OrientationHorizontal_LEFT
aspm.ItemLabelProperties.BackgroundColor = XUI.Color_ARGB(100,0,0,0)'black
aspm.DividerEnabled = True
aspm.DividerHeight = 1dip
aspm.DividerColor = XUI.Color_white
aspm.TitleLabelProperties.BackgroundColor = XUI.Color_White
aspm.TitleLabelProperties.TextColor = XUI.Color_Black
aspm.TitleLabelProperties.xFont = XUI.CreateDefaultBoldFont(12)
aspm.AddTitle("opciones de entrada",45dip)
aspm.MenuCornerRadius = 5dip
aspm.ItemLabelProperties.ItemBackgroundColor = XUI.Color_ARGB(255,150, 150, 150)
aspm.ItemLabelProperties.xFont=XUI.CreateDefaultFont(12)
aspm.ItemLabelProperties.TextColor = XUI.Color_ARGB(255,0,0,0)
aspm.AddMenuItem("Guardar movimiento", 0)
aspm.AddMenuItem("Copiar movimiento", 1)
aspm.AddMenuItem("Borrar movimiento", 2)
aspm.AddMenuItem("Agregar entrada", 3)


Sub BMMenus2_Click
    aspm.OpenMenu(BMMenus2,200dip)
End Sub

I corrected it by changing this line, I did several tests putting views with top vertical orientation menu and it works well on vertical and horizontal screen, thanks, very useful library. I'm really liking b4a.

B4X:
Private Sub GetTopLeft(top As Float,left As Float,width As Float,view As B4XView)
    If top < 0 Then
        top = view.Top + view.Height
    Else If (top + xpnl_background.Height) > max_y Then
        'top = view.Top - xpnl_background.Height
        top = view.Top - xpnl_background.Height + view.Height 'CHANGE OF LINE
    Else If left < 0 Then
        left = 0
    Else If (left + width) > max_x Then
        left = max_x - width
    Else
        CallSubDelayed3(Me,"lol",left,top)
        Return
    End If
    If max_endlessloop = 10 Then
        CallSubDelayed3(Me,"lol",left,top)
        Return
    End If
    max_endlessloop = max_endlessloop +1
    GetTopLeft(top,left,width,view)
End Sub

Have Fun :)
I downloaded your b4a example and unzipped it into a folder.
When loading the B4A project, it shows the following message:

[IDE message - 7:55:13]
The following modules are missing:
C:\Projects\B4A\ASPopupMenu.bas

It definitely is missing from the example project.

Could you please correct it and re-upload?

Thanx,

I downloaded your b4a example and unzipped it into a folder.
When loading the B4A project, it shows the following message:

[IDE message - 7:55:13]
The following modules are missing:
C:\Projects\B4A\ASPopupMenu.bas

It definitely is missing from the example project.

Could you please correct it and re-upload?

Thanx,
Mark Stuart
Hi, you need download and use the b4xlib from first post.

I had put it in the Additional Libraries folder instead of the Libraries folder.
And I had to reselect the library in the project.
Thanx for your help.

Update
  • 1.09
    • Add set MenuViewGap - sets the gap between the menu and the attached view
    • Add get TriangleProperties
    • Add set ShowTriangle - only visible if you open the menu with OpenMenu
      • Default: False
KTa7gKtcmrbG6pEHsg6rdVqCE1ChquLRGgVWzvyhxJWWJFU0wI.jpeg

Example:
B4X:
aspma_Main.MenuViewGap = aspma_Main.TriangleProperties.Height + 2dip
aspma_Main.ShowTriangle = True
aspma_Main.TriangleProperties.Left = 150dip/2 - aspma_Main.TriangleProperties.Width/2 'Middle

Can you add something like the image below ??
yes

Hi,

I`m now also getting an error in the B4A version too, seems to be the same as the B4i error I mentioned earlier. Can you advise what issue is? :

    • Add MenuHeight - gets the MenuHeight even if the menu is not yet visible
    • BugFixes
Example project where the new props. are used:

I noticed that when you use Open2(Root, 250dip) and have 6+ items, the popup goes up further and further on the screen instead of being in the center.

I use the OpenMenuAdvance to center the menu instead but just wanted to let you know

Hi Alex, do you think it would be possible to add an option to add more than 1 title to the pop up so tat we could maybe split the popup into sections?

For example:

Section 1 [Title]
Item 1
Item 2
Section 2 [Title]
Item 1
Item 2
