 Topic: CXTPMenuBar - need pointer to CMenuPosted: 01 July 2009 at 7:40pm |

Is there a way to get my hands on the CMenu associated with the CXTPMenuBar?
OnCreate I'm adding the menu bar: CXTPMenuBar* pMenuBar = pCommandBars->SetMenu(_T("Menu"), IDR_MAINFRAME); Next I want to modify the Menu and attach custom menu items. If I could get a pointer to a CMenu then I could use my existing routine. How do you add menu items after the fact? I need something like this: CXTPMenuBar* pxMenu = GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar(); CMenu* pMenu = pxMenu->GetMenu(); ModifyMenu(pMenu); or this CMenu Menu; Menu.LoadMenu(IDR_MAINFRAME); ModifyMenu(&Menu); CXTPMenuBar* pMenuBar = pCommandBars->SetMenu(&Menu); Thanks, Matt |

I don't believe there is a CMenu behind the command bar. You can first use a CMenu to load and manipulate your menu layout and then pass the CMenu to CJ. I do that when building the command ribbon (I might have to get the controls collection and then pass it the menu; I'm not at work so I can't explicitly check on exactly what call I make or whether the call takes in a CMenu or HMENU - CMenu can be cast to HMENU).

rd - if you have that call that passes in a CMenu to MenuBar, I'd really appreciate it.

still waiting for support to get back to me. Is it possible to create a MenuBar from an existing CMenu? Or can I get ahold of a CMenu submenu from a MenuBar?

After you converted Menu to CXTPMenuBar you have use methods of CXTPControl/CXTPControls to modify/add items:
pMenuBar->GetControl(1)->SetCaption("New Caption");
etc.

Oleg - your answer leaves a lot to be desired. How am I to create a submenu using GetControl? Seems extremely laborious. Can you elaborate a little?

Hi, See CXTPControls methods - you need "Add" one:
pMenuBar->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlPopup, ...);
