I know we have a function called Enable. However, I have trouble how to access into it after reading tutorial (i am new to Ultimate ++).

Here is what I have (partial - i use separate CPP/H files):

this->AddFrame(menu);
menu.Set(THISBACK(MainMenu));

void MainMenu(Bar& bar) {
bar.Add("File", THISBACK(SubFileMenu))
.Help("File Menu");
bar.Add("Section", THISBACK(SubSectionMenu))
.Help("Section Menu").Enable(false);
}

void SubFileMenu(Bar& bar) {
bar.Add("Open", THISBACK(File_Open))
.Help("Open Menu");
bar.Add("Close", THISBACK(File_Close))
.Help("Close Menu");
bar.Add("Exit", THISBACK(File_Exit))
.Help("Exit Menu");
}

void File_Open() {
// I want to make "Section" enabled. How can I do it here?
// example: when user opens file, i want section to be enabled.
}
