Hi. I want to display context menu without default items in it. It does not seem to matter that I erase the list, the default items (Close, Switch Application, Show Keyboard) do not disappear. Here's couple variations of the code.

private MenuItem mnuNewAcct=new MenuItem("New Account", 1, 10) {
public void run() {
//
}
};

protected void makeMenu(Menu menu, int context) {
menu.deleteAll();
menu.add(mnuNewAcct);
super.makeMenu(menu, context);
}

/***** OR *****/

protected void makeContextMenu(ContextMenu contextMenu) {
contextMenu.clear();
contextMenu.addItem(mnuNewAcct);
super.makeContextMenu(contextMenu);
}


protected boolean navigationClick(int status, int time) {
ContextMenu menu = this.getScreen().getContextMenu();
makeContextMenu(menu);
this.getScreen().onMenu(0);
return true;
}

As long as you call the "super" methods last you'll get the default entries, of course!

Sorry, I should have removed it from the example. It does not make any difference if I have super or not. When I don't have it, the default menu items are added anyway. By the way, I'm on JDE 5.0, 9530 SIM. Thanks.

To close the loop on this. The only way I was able to get rid of the default items on the menu was to subclass Menu into my own class and instantiate and show that. No matter what I tried with the default menu, it would always add the Switch Application and Show Keyboard items to the end of it.
