Hi, I would appriciate some help! all I want to do is build a menu on the fly... this is what I do so far: VoidT CreateMenuBar(HWND wnd, HMENU hMenu) { CMenu* pMenu = CMenu::FromHandle(hMenu); CXTPCommandBar* pMenuBar = pFrame->GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar(); pMenuBar->LoadMenu(pMenu); CXTPMyControlPopup* pMyCtrl = CXTPMyControlPopup::CreateMyControlPopup(xtpControlPopup); pMyCtrl->SetCaption((LPCTSTR)"MyCtrl"); pMenuBar->GetControls()->Add(pMyCtrl); CXTPPopupToolBar* pBar = CXTPPopupToolBar::CreatePopupToolBar(pMenuBar->GetCommandBars()); pMyCtrl->SetCommandBar(pBar); ... } that works fine so far and I get a very nice additional button in the main menu bar of the app. but now I want to add menu entries... at the moment I am doing that in the "OnCalcDynamicSize()" Function of "CXTPMyControlPopup::CXTPControlPopup" : ... CXTPControlButton *pControl = (CXTPControlButton*)GetCommandBar()->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, MY_ID, "MyMenuEntry"); pControl->SetCaption("MyMenuEntry"); pControl->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate); pControl->SetEnabled(true); ... this way I get a lot of nice buttons, but unfortunatly they dont look like menus at all. What do I need to do to generate menus that look like menus this way? Thanx for your help. Cheers Bjoern |

Hi,
Replace
CXTPPopupToolBar* pBar = CXTPPopupToolBar::CreatePopupToolBar(pMenuBar->GetCommandBars());
to CXTPPopupBar* pBar = CXTPPopupBar::CreatePopupBar(pMenuBar->GetCommandBars());

ps.
After line
pMyCtrl->SetCommandBar(pBar);
you also need release pBar: pBar->InternalRelease();
to avoid leak. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
