Problem
All menu accelerator keys, in a modal dialog which is a child of the main window, are going to the main window.
Cause
Changes need to be made to the zApp code base to allow this to work.
Action
This is a workaround for this problem if you really want to have a modal dialog from a main window and you need a menu with accelerator keys attached.

This is a workaround for this problem if you really want to have a modal dialog from a main window and you need a menu with accelerator keys attached.
In the file app.cpp in the zApp source directory.
In the app::go() method, there are two instances of this code in this method. Make the change below in each of them.
Look for this code:
#ifndef __NOMDI__
if (modalDialog || !zAppGetAppVar(hMDIclient)
|| !TranslateMDISysAccel(zAppGetAppVar(hMDIclient),&msg)) {
#endif
Add this code. Now it should look like this:
#ifndef __NOMDI__
if (modalDialog || !zAppGetAppVar(hMDIclient)
|| !TranslateMDISysAccel(zAppGetAppVar(hMDIclient),&msg)) {
#endif
if (modalDialog) //added
to get accelerator key for modal dialog
if (TranslateAccelerator(zAppGetAppVar(activeDialog),hAccel,&msg));
goto again;
The new code added is the if (modalDialog ...
This code exists again a little further down in the same method, so you'll need to make the same change there.
