Creating a New Command Bar System

Adding a Standard Menu/Toolbar

If you are editing a main project (.src) file that does not already contain a command bar system object, then the Visual Designer's context menu displays the following option:

This option can be used to add a 'standard' set of command bar objects including File, View, Report menus, Find, Edit toolbars, and a status bar.

Building a Menu/Toolbar from Scratch

You can use the Class Palette for a more "hands-on" approach to building a set of command bar objects. Simply drag and drop a cCJMenuBar, cCJToolbar, or cCJStatusbar class onto the Visual Designer canvas.

The command bar system will be created in whatever container object you drop the menu bar, toolbar, or status bar. For example, if you drop a toolbar on a tab page of a tab dialog, then a command bar system and toolbar are created in that tab page.
