Keep submenu visible after clicking its form

[wallytax]

I've created a Menu with a couple of items. Each item has a submenu that contains exactly one item, an embeddedComponent. That embedded component is a DynamicForm instance which only contains check boxes. After I click one of the check boxes, the menu closes. Is it possible to prevent this?

I'm using SmartClient 12.1 LGPL (June 4th, 2020). The code is like this:

  menu = isc.Menu.create({
    data: [{
      submenu: [{
        embeddedComponent: isc.DynamicForm.create({
          fields: [... several check boxes ...]
        }),
        showRollOver: false
      }],
      title: 'Item 1'
    }, ... more menu items ...]
  });

It's probably another code causing this: I've implemented an itemChange() event on the form which reloads a grid, probably causing the menu to loose focus. I'll look for a solution to fix that.

I have not found a solution for this. Problem is that whenever I click a check box (which acts as a filter on tabular data), the grid data is reloaded. This causes the menu to hide.

You seem to be looking for menu/menuItem.autoDismiss.

You may also want autoDismissOnBlur:false, since if you have left rpcManager.showPrompt at it's default setting, interactivity is blocked during the grid fetch via a clickMask, which will blur whatever has focus.
