How to know Class of selected Actor before opening Status Scene?

    I've been playing with rpg_scene.js, rpg_windows.js and I have YEP_MainMenuManager.js and YEP_StatusMenuCore.js installed that I suspect may be affecting what I want to do.

    I want to be able to know the class of the actor the player selects before opening the Status Menu (I have a class that does not use any of the status/equip/etc menus and I want to prevent the player from opening those menus when trying to select actors with said class)

    Closest thing I've seen that may help is in rpg_windows.js

    Code:
    Window_MenuStatus.prototype.processOk = function() {
    Window_Selectable.prototype.processOk.call(this);
    $gameParty.setMenuActor($gameParty.members()[this.index()]);
};

    I'm at a loss as to where to edit any plugin/script to achieve what I want to do. Does anyone have any idea?

    You can check the class and make pressing "ok" play a buzzer instead if the actor has the forbidden class:
    Code:
    Window_MenuStatus.prototype.processOk = function() {
    const currentActor = $gameParty.members()[this.index()];
    const forbiddenClasses = [4, 8, 10];  // Add class # for any that can't open the equip menu
    if (!forbiddenClasses.includes(currentActor._classId)) {
        Window_Selectable.prototype.processOk.call(this);
        $gameParty.setMenuActor(currentActor);
    } else {
        SoundManager.playBuzzer();
    }
};

    } else {
        SoundManager.playBuzzer();
    }
};

    I played with that, even adding it into a plain 'new project' to make sure that no other plugins would interfere, but it didn't work. HOWEVER, it did send me into the right direction looking into the javascript and I found the part of rpg_windows.js that it DID work. I got it to run in the plain project then put it into my current project (edited it for my project) and IT WORKED. So THANK YOU.

    This is where I got it working:
    Code:
    Window_MenuStatus.prototype.isCurrentItemEnabled = function() {
    if (this._formationMode) {
        var actor = $gameParty.members()[this.index()];
        return actor && actor.isFormationChangeOk();
    } else {
        const forbiddenClasses = 1; 
        if (forbiddenClasses != $gameParty.members()[this.index()]._classId) {
        return true;
        }
        else
        {return false}
    }
};
