Hi all, the menu code has been annoying me to no end sometimes. Now I guess I know why: SetMenu() completely removed mouse capture right in between running in the menu tracking loop! This lead to menu tracking getting stuck right in between menus. I really don't know why this code was there, but I guess it must have served some purpose (other than making menu support completely unusable for several programs ;), so in case anyone knows, just tell me.
