Hi, I have an existing project that uses dynamic popup menu’s for users (system.gui.createPopupMenu()). This is working fine, however, we have recently gone to touch screens, and require font size modifications. If I collect the current font from the menu using .getFont() and manipulate it, then s…

Try recursing through the menu to set the font on every item. Also, when posting code or other plain text, use a line with just a triple-backquote (these ```) above and below the pasted text. That displays indentation and code formatting so we can understand…

Thanks for the code tip :slight_smile: If I try to insert a recursive loop: for item in menu: item.setFont(newFont4) Java returns a error: JyPopupMenu’ object is not iterable Here is the original code with the formats: names = [] funcs = [] publicFuncs = [] publicNames = [] publicNames.appen…

Try iterating over menu.subElements ( https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.desktop/javax/swing/JPopupMenu.html#getSubElements() ): for item in menu.subElements: item.setFont(newFont4)

Thanks Paul! I guess I don’t understand the JPopupMenu as well as I thought I did. I can try playing with the last issue, but I may as well go ahead and ask: [image] Any idea how to get the “TITLE” font to change? I tried a second sub-iteration on ‘item’, but alas, no go :frowning:

Got it, I used a format on the string setting the font size: publicNames.append('<HTML><font size="7">TITLE</HTML>') If there is another way, I’d be happy to find out… Thanks again @paul-griffith for the help!

You’ll need to recurse into the submenu items - the constructed JyPopupMenu itself contains JyMenuItems, which each have their own getSubMenus() method, and so on. A simple recursive function should do it, unless your menu gets over 1024 elements deep :smile: Something like this, after the createPop…
