Inventory open when mouse over AND through Actionlist actions
Is it possible to have the default inventory appears type as Mouse over (when you roll your mouse over the top portion of the screen to open it) - but also be able to trigger menu open and close commands from an actionlist?
In my tests, it seems the actionlist commands only work if inventory "appear type" is set to manual, which means mouse over doesn't work?
Thanks in advance

You'd need to leave it as Manual, but then have a separate, invisible Menu that is set to "Mouse Over" that occupies the same space.
As part of that Menu's "ActionList when turn on" asset, you can then run a "Menu: Change state" Action to turn the Inventory menu on.
ok thanks, that makes sense as a workaround.
Will the invisble menu occupying the same space not affect mouse clicks, drags and hovers intended for the actual inventory menu?
Checking Ignore mouse clicks? should be enough, but make sure it's listed above your regular Inventory menu in the Menu Manager as this determines the order in which Menus are "processed" by AC.
