You've done everything correctly. The reason the Samples menu doesn't appear in your test is that it has no location to appear in... if the menu system doesn't know where to open a menu, then no menu will open. Notice that the other menus (Milonic, Partners, etc.) have their top and left menu properties set. But the Samples menu does not have top and left properties set. WHich begs the question, "So why does it work in the example on the Milonic site?" Good question. If you look at the code in use for the same sample on the site, then you'll notice that the Samples menu there does have top=262 and left=230. Looks like its just a small oversight in the downloadable version.

Hope that helps,

Kevin

Yeah I just noticed it too and mentioned it in viewtopic.php?t=3049 so hopefully Andy will take notice and put it on his list of a bazillion things to do.
