Perhaps someone could help me out with a problem I'm having creating menus under an ADEW created application? I have an application which consists of an lset object with a group of buttons, a tree/treev object and a text/textview object pasted into it. I want to override the default menu I'm getting in the tree/treev object (one pane with 'Quit' in it (from the IM?)) with a menu of my own. I first tried using the standard menulist procedure described (on p.102) in the ATK book to put up menus. I couldn't get this to work under ADEW. I then figured that the lset/arbiter/cel stuff was getting in my way, so I read up on them and tried using celview_SetMenulist() on the cel that contained the treev object. This didn't work either. Can someone tell me what the proper procedure is? Also, while I'm asking questions: is ADEW "industrial strength" yet? I haven't seen any large applications written with it. Should I be using it or just doing it myself in ATK? Is there someone out there who wants to relate their experiences with ADEW?
