Are you talking about an IDE or a menu that you made yourself?

Hi,

Not sure if it helps in your quest and/or if there are more simpler/logical solutions, but one might simply add toplevel bindings to the same key combinations of the menu entries, as soon as the user hides the menu. For example:

Lets suppose you have created a menu into the main toplevel "." and user/program activates hiding the menu. Then we could define the following binding:

bind . <Alt-Key-h> {call_help_procedure}

Where call_help_procedure is obviously the (same) help procedure that is executed as using the menu's Help-entry.
