A button that switches between partial menus 1

[handle258]

I have a couple of partial menus that I need to switch to & from often. Is it possible to make a button that will do this?

Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of using a partial menu?

You should ne able to use the lisp MENUCMD function in your button macro. Following is excerpt from a lisp reference:

The menucmd function can switch between subpages in an AutoCAD menu. This function can also force the display of menus. This allows AutoLISP programs to use image tile menus and to display other menus from which the
user can make selections.
Examples
The following code displays the image tile menu MOREICONS.
(menucmd "I=moreicons&quot Loads the MOREICONS image tile menu
(menucmd "I=*&quot Displays the menu

CarkAK, thanks for the info, I'll try that!

Newbie, I use partial menus as add-ons to the regular acad menu. (extra pull-downs). They are easier to change and keep updated if they aren't all consolidated into one menu file.
