Dynamic menu creation of Ribbon SplitButton

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have to generate the menu content of a ribbon split button every time just before the menu is shown.
In the example I don't want the three "Option 1-3" be static content, they need to be created right after the split button is clicked and before menu dropdown.

I tried to receive a CBN_DROPDOWN message - but it seems the split button doesn't send one.
Other way may be the ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP message but this seems to be send only to mainframe?
Any suggestions about this?

	Yes, ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP seems to be the best way to do this. > but this seems to be send only to mainframe? Guess notification is just sent to the parent window, which seems reasonable enough.
