al_create_popup_menu(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, this is al_create_popup_menu(3) from the Library Functions Manual — Allegro 5 API energy, and it's all about making a menu container for popup menus. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro_native_dialog.h>

ALLEGRO_MENU *al_create_popup_menu(void)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this function creates a menu container for popup menus. That's the main-character job, no cap. 🎀

Vibe check: only the root (outermost) menu should be created with this function. Sub menus of popups should be created with al_create_menu(3) — that's the move for those, iykyk. 🫶

It returns NULL on failure. That's the failure signal, bestie — do not ignore it. 💀

🦋 SINCE 🦋

5.1.0 — iconic, it's been here since 5.1.0. ⭐

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

• al_create_menu(3) — the sub-menu-of-popups bestie, per the description above.
• al_build_menu(3) — another SEE ALSO link, go give it a vibe check. 🫶
