}

}

I do not understand you.

Che

hey thanx that u look into the code.....
plz tell me which part of the code or prob u did not understand....
in short prob is that menu wont show on my view n if i call it by openOptionMenu() on menu click event then it pops up but as soon as i release the menu button it gets minimized....

In the onCreateOptionsMenu:
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(final Menu menu) {
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
menu.add(0, Quit_id, Quit_id, Quit_id).setShortcut('0', 'r').setIcon(
android.R.drawable.ic_menu_close_clear_cancel);

return true;
}

Prepare your Options menu
public final boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(final Menu menu) {
final boolean isItemSelected = getSelectedItemPosition() >= 0;
menu.findItem(Quit_id).setEnabled(isItemSelected);

return super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
}

On menu selected:
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(final int featureId, final MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case Quit_id:
//Do something.....
return true;

default:
break;
}

return super.onMenuItemSelected(featureId, item);
}

hello thanx for reply,
I use this code in my game menu and its working fine, but comes one problem when we move center button left and right, after this menu button press then menu pops up but as soon as i release the menu button it gets minimized....
I use this code for call menu:

public void openMenu() {
this.getWindow().openPanel(Window.FEATURE_OPTIONS_PANEL,
new KeyEvent(KeyEvent.ACTION_UP, KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MENU));

}

hey i found the cause of this prob......i hv a single view in my game...in setcontentview i hv set view as mainwindow(see above code).....if i remove the onkeydown and onkey up from my code menu works fine.....
does anybody have code dat has both menu n keydown working properly...???
