AUTOMENU Element
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The AUTOMENU element provides a way to display the Quick Access Panel in a skin. This is a menu that appears in the full mode of the Player when you click the arrow to the right of the Now Playing button. It provides immediate access to digital media files organized in various ways, such as in playlists or by album, artist, or genre. Use the left and top attributes to specify the location at which the menu should appear when the show method is called.
