   Hi, I need dynamically add a separator in dynamic sub-menu in the main frame. As a basic sample i use the 'CControlFavorites' class from 'dynamicpopups' sample (XTP ver. 10.3.1). As i understand i have to change some preperty of 'CXTPControlButton' object, but i cannot find the way to do it. What is the most preferable way to insert a separator dynamically?

Thanks in advance.

	Thank You! I do this way: CXTPControlButton* pControl1 = (CXTPControlButton*)m_pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, 0, NULL, 2); pControl1->SetBeginGroup(TRUE); but after this code after separator ihave the blank menu item. after it in turn everything is fine. How to avoid such 'blank' menu item after separator?

	Thank You oleg, but I still cannot add a separator :( Below is the snapshot of my code: CXTPControlButton* pControl = (CXTPControlButton)m_pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_PLUGINS_RELOADPLUGINS, L"Reload plugins",1); pControl->SetCaption(L"Reload plugins"); pControl->SetTooltip(L"Click to reload present plugins"); pControl->SetDescription(L"Click to reload present plugins"); pControl->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate); pControl->SetStyle(xtpButtonIconAndCaption); //CXTPControlButton pControl1 = (CXTPControlButton)m_pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, 0, NULL, 2); pControl->SetBeginGroup(TRUE); int i = 2; for (folder_entry_vec::iterator iter = m_PlVec.begin(); iter != m_PlVec.end(); iter++ ){ CXTPControlButton pControl = (CXTPControlButton*)m_pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_PLUGINS_RELOADPLUGINS+i-1, (LPCWSTR)iter->m_PlResName, i, FALSE); pControl->SetCaption((LPCWSTR)iter->m_PlResName); pControl->SetTooltip((LPCWSTR)iter->m_PlDescription); pControl->SetDescription((LPCWSTR)iter->m_PlDescription); pControl->SetCustomIcon((HICON)iter->m_PlIcon); pControl->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate); pControl->SetStyle(xtpButtonIconAndCaption); ++i; } Excuse me for my obtrusiveness, i can release the app even without this separator, but i just want to make this question clear at least for me. Thank You

	Hello, SetBeginGroup adds separator before control. You added separator before first item so it is not visible. add it in "for loop" pControl->SetBeginGroup(iter == m_PlVec.begin());
