Enabling hotkeys while a menu is being displayed

[JBensimon]

Following up on my short thread in the Scripts & Functions area (https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=79423&p=346852#p346852),is there currently or can there be a feature that allows a script's hotkeys to remain available while the script is displaying a menu? The thread in question relates to recognizing right-clicks on a menu item and relies on a hotkey, which does work if the hotkey is created by an entirely separate script but doesn't if the hotkey is defined in the script that's displaying the menu.

Thanks.

You can suppress the messages that tell AutoHotkey a menu is being displayed, but there are caveats (which is why new threads are blocked to begin with).
