.Net 2.0 Menu strip control-Common sence.

Hi

I dont know whether I am doing something wrong here. But this is very strange thing I have noted with menu strip control. I am using VB 2005.

I am using a menu strip control as the main menu for my MDI application. The issue is i have some of my sub menus getting enabled when its parent menu item is disabled. This happens especially when I open and point to a menu item that has sub items and then pointing it back to a menu item which have sub items in the same level.

Eg:

I have item 1 with sub menu items 1.1 and 1.2 and another menu item 2 in the same level of item 1 with sub menus 2.1 and 2.2. Lets say item 1 is disabled and I am pointing my mouse pointer to item 2 and the sib items gets popped out, without pointing to the sub items that poped out I am moving my mouse to point item 1, there the item 1 also pops out with its sub items 1.1 and 1.2 enabled.

I am right now explicitly disabling items under a disabled menu item, which involves lot of overhead.

Post your comments.
