You can do this with the "button" IDs that cw_pdmenu returns through its
optional IDS keyword-parameter.
i.e., my_menu_id=cw_pdmenu(..., IDS=my_menu_button_ids)
Once you've got these, you can desensitise the whole menu with:
widget_control,my_menu_button_ids(0),sens=0
or you can desensitise actual menu items with something like:
widget_control,my_menu_button_ids(2),sens=0 ;desensitise 2nd item
Of course, you'll have to keep the menu button IDs handy (along with your
widget program's other "persistent" variables) so that you can change states
later on.
