hi Gert-Jan,
unfortunately MenuHideItem fails if it is called in frmOpenEvent
I also tried FrmSetMenu followed by MenuHideItem in frmOpenEvent without
success.
Something that might give a clue is that in menuOpenEvent,
eventP->data.menuOpen.menuRscID is always zero whereas the manual says

Hi all,
I have an application that needs to hide a menu item in different
situations. I came across the MenuHideItem method, and this works great for
OS version 4.0 and above. The problem occurs on OS 3.5.THe item in the menu
is made invisible, but there is still a blank space where that menu
Oops... never mind. I'm just being an idiot. I messed up my resource IDs
for the menu items, so I was calling MenuHideItem with invalid numbers.
Thanks anyway,

Unfortunately I think you'll have to implement a work-around, such as using
separate menus, for OS 3.5. I
Here is the situation.
There is one menu item on the menu.

If you try to hide the first item in a menu, it shows up as a blank space on
the menu and you lose the last item on the menu.
I was looking in the OS 3.5 sources and it looks like that the drawing

Hi all
Some bugs that I found on MenuHideItem() function...
1.) Hiding 1st item on the menu will hang / crash the system
2.) Hiding dynamically created menu item, which create by MenuAddItem(),
will hang / crash the system.
I'm very very disppointed and desperated trying to fix
I have found on my Handspring running OS 3.5.2H that if I hide a menu item
using MenuHideItem the menu the hidden item is in no longer responds to any
selections. This seems to occur only on my Handspring and not on my M505
running 4.0.

I just ran into this bug myself last week working on DualDate. The

Hi All,
I want to use Show and Hide the Menu Item, other than the place of
menuOpenEvent.
Can be used "MenuShowItem" or "MenuHideItem" calls other than "menuOpenEvent"???
Can anyone give me some ideas, that would be appreciated.

The dynamic UI features tend to have a lot of gotchas that aren't
