It seems there is a bug in fasm resource compiling:
menus flag MF_HELP processing.

If I tried in resource section

Code:

menuitem '&Help', 0, MFR_POPUP + MF_HELP + MFR_END

it compiles but don't shows menu.

If I tried compile such menu with standalone resource compiler
and include it by 'from'

Code:

section '.rsrc' data readable resource from 'file.res'

it works fine.

If there is no bug, what happens?

Perhaps you mean the MFT_RIGHTJUSTIFY flag, standard "menuitem" macro doesn't have feature of setting type flags, but it can be easily modified:

Code:

macro menuitem string,id,resinfo,type,status
 { dd type+MFT_STRING,status+0,id
   dw resinfo
   du string,0
   align 4
   if resinfo and MFR_END <> 0
   menu_level = menu_level - 1
   end if
   if resinfo and MFR_POPUP <> 0
   menu_level = menu_level + 1
   dd 0
   end if
   if menu_level = 0
   menu_size
   end if }

And with such version of this macro you can do it this way:

Code:

menuitem '&Help',0, MFR_POPUP + MFR_END,MFT_RIGHTJUSTIFY

Yes. And now it works fine.

I think you can do this modified "menuitem" macro standard.
I like fasm for all-sufficient and maybe such macro will help somebody.
