My menu in my MDI form (VB) appears to be hidden. It's still there, but it is in the title bar, and the FIRST heading will appear if I click on the approximate location of where it is supposed to be. Other menu headings are only available when the first heading is clicked and you move the mouse across (not that that really matters). Pictures below illustrate this ... |

Hello,
SkinFramework doesn't support application menus. Use our ComandBars control.

I was ready to set up all the menu items using ComandBars when I discovered that I didn't need to. By using just the following code, my existing application menus appeared. Is this what you meant?
' Set Menus
CommandBarsGlobalSettings.App = App ' Disable MenuBar Docking CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.EnableDocking xtpFlagStretched Just as an observation, I've noticed that things such as Properties and Methods are all documented. But there is no real world documentation examples of how to implement anything. The sample apps are nice, but we're still left to fend for ourselves with regards to figuring out how to apply these controls. Just creating a menu is a prime example. There was no, "Here's how you create a menu" topic. I had to decipher the sample on my own and locate which code was applicable to just the menu.

Hello,
Yeap, in last versions we added autoconverting - so you don't need any code to convert menu.

Hi
I also make my menu visible by just putting the CommandBars on the Form, but I have the problem on manipulating this. For example I make items of the menu enabled and disabled. Changes of properties do not have any effects. I already found out that navigating through ComandBars members to the specifical item and setting its property works well using e.g.
So I suggest the visible menue is not connected to the original menu. My application is a pretty big project which was written before using SkinFrameWork so I dont want to make a huge amount of changes on it. So, is there a way to apply changes of the original menu to the visible menu? The second, interesting, but not as important question is if it is possible to access specifical items directly i.e. without navigating through the members of ComandBars? Thanks for Help. |
