First, are you trying to get the menu to execute the code associated
with option A on openStack or are you just interested in making sure
the button's label is set right? If the latter, rather than using
menuPick just set the label of the button. That should work fine
(untested).
Second, have you tried sending the menuPick message from a different
place, e.g., another button? I set up a little test to do that. If I
didn't explicitly set the label of the menu button, the script for
the menu choice I entered would execute but the label of the menu
button remained unchanged. So I suspect the secret is that you have
to set the label of the menu button and then, if you want it to
execute the choice, send the menuPick message.

Hi,
I have a pop up menu that has two values, call them A and B. In the
preOpenStack handler I want to set the menu back to A so I tried
the following:
send "menuPick A" to button "myButton"
The Script on myButton is as so:
on menuPick theItemSelected
if theItemSelected = "A" then
-- Do Something
else
-- Do Something else
end if
end menuPick
When I manually enter A or B on the Pop Up all works ok. However
when I run the preOpenStack handler, the Menu Stays a B even though
I send an "A" to it. I have put a breakpoint in the menu pick
handler and it receive the "A" ok. Do I need to set something else
to have the menu update to "A"?????
