✨ NAME ✨

al_find_menu — Allegro 5 API 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_native_dialog.h>

ALLEGRO_MENU *al_find_menu(ALLEGRO_MENU *haystack, uint16_t id)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it do?? it goes digging through the haystack menu, searching for any submenu that has the given id. literally a scavenger hunt but for menus. 🔍

⚠️ okay important thing, bestie, don't skip this: that id is a literal ID, and it cannot be used as an index. like, don't try to be clever about it. it's an ID, not a position. the way that matters, fr fr.

if it finds the menu? slay, it returns the menu. 🎉

if it doesn't find it? returns NULL. 😭 not a vibe, but that's the deal.
