Among other objects I have 4 choice objects on a form. Now, when
one choice receives a click I want to offer an additional tool
to be started with parameters specific to the opened choice list.
I want to avoid an additional menu (called e.g. by a hotkey) where
one has to click on the corresponding item to get this tool working.
The tool should be invoked with parameters specific to the choice
it was called from. The invokation from within the opened list can
certainly be done by hotkey.
Any ideas somebody?
TIA,
Frank.
