β¨ ALLEGRO_MENU β¨
okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro 5 API corner of the manual β this one's ALLEGRO_MENU, and it's literally the blueprint for every little dropdown menu situation you're about to build π
π SYNOPSIS π
#include <allegro5/allegro_native_dialog.h>
typedef struct ALLEGRO_MENU ALLEGRO_MENU;
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so like. ALLEGRO_MENU is an opaque data type β meaning you don't get to peek inside it, she's mysterious, she's got main character energy, you just work with her through the API like a civilized person π«Ά
What she represents? A menu. And that menu contains menu items. That's the whole vibe.
And here's the lil bonus: each of those menu items can optionally include a sub-menu β so yes, you can nest, you can go deeper, it's giving menus within menus within menus πβ¨
ngl, that's the entire page. short, sweet, and honestly? iconic. no cap. π
okay bye bestie, this was the Allegro reference manual talking, 3alleg5 era, ALLEGRO_MENU(3alleg5) β go forth and menu-fy something gorgeous πππ¦
