Hi all,

Can you make sub-menu's with the current custom menu tools? I'm working on my menu's and I'd like to make a menu selection that lets me send a specific byte to one of the I2C devices on demand. In this case I want to send a byte telling my sound player to queue up a specific sound byte. I could see it used for other things like which light regime to display from the PWM expansion. It could either ask for a number (byte) to send or it could generate a list (sub-menu) and select with the joystick function. Unfortunately, this is too advanced for my programming skills. :?

Thanks,
Jon

Currently you cannot create sub menus. This adds another level of complexity to the menu system. Submenus exist with the Standard Menu but not with custom menus. I will have to start thinking about this again.

Thanks Curt. It's just a 'nice to have' for me, so please don't feel you need to prioritize it against all the other cool stuff you're working on. :)
