VBMenuBar menu separator

Hi all,

In VB, when you create a menu for a form, you can put a "-" in the text to create a separating line between two menu items. Can this be done in Jabaco? and if so, how? I tried to search here on the forum and in the tutorials and I can't seem to find how to do it.

In the example in the following link, the menu in the screen shot has that seperator right after the Save option. :)

Thank you :)

The following sample creates a separator:

Jabaco Source

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
Option Explicit

Public Sub Form_Load()
   Dim tmpGroupFile As VBMenuGroup = Me.MenuBar.createMenuGroup(Null, "File", "File")
   Call Me.MenuBar.createMenu(tmpGroupFile, "New", "New")
   Call Me.MenuBar.createMenu(tmpGroupFile, "Open", "Open")
   Call Me.MenuBar.addSeperator(tmpGroupFile)
   Call Me.MenuBar.createMenu(tmpGroupFile, "Exit", "Exit")   
End Sub
 
Public Sub Form_MenuClick(MenuItem As VB#IMenuItem)
   MsgBox "Caption: " & MenuItem.Caption & " - ControlID: " & MenuItem.ControlID
End Sub


Note the spelling error separator/seperator.

To discover the universe behind Jabaco, it usually pays off to have a look at the framework sources.
Another helpful feature is Jabaco's autocompletion in the source code editor.
To get to know what you can do with a MenuBar, you just enter "Call Me.MenuBar." in the above sample.
The IDE will then display a list of methods and properties. In most cases, this should help you on the right track.

Greetings!

Is there possible to put available (for download) that example, mentioned in that link ?

Simply copy the source from the sample into your Jabaco IDE editor.
There is nothing more needed.
Or do I get your question wrong?

Hello,



You got my question wrong, unfortunately. In that link (http://www.jabaco.org/wiki/VBMenuBar) is a snapshot of something that could explain better how to use (and contain) the resources (images) in that example. I tried to request that example, like was possible to download others, in this forum...



Rgds,

Sven

About building menus, in Jabaco...

Have you seen this posting?

Hello,


Yes, I´ve seen before posting. I used that code to understand how to build menus, in Jabaco apps. But, sincerely, preferred to have a menu builder in Jabaco, like VB had...



But what I really wanted was the possibility of downloading the sample that I made reference, because if was possible to take a snapshot of that sample, maybe that source code could be put available too. Only this...



Rgds,

Sven
