Select Commandbar Item Classes
Use the Select Commandbar Item Classes dialog to select one or more menu item classes. This dialog is used by the Visual Designer to add items to a menu or toolbar using the selected menu item classes.
Menu Item Classes Treeview
The treeview control displays the cCJMenuItem class and every subclass of cCJMenuItem that is accessible to the current workspace.
The DataFlex class library already contains a library of menu item subclasses for performing specialist tasks. For example, there are subclasses for Cut, Copy, Paste, Find, Save, Delete operations, etc.
The menu item classes are grouped by category. Expand each category tree item to review the list of classes in that category.
Each class entry item in the treeview displays information about the class in the following format:
Icon: Class Name: [Caption]
The following example shows the entry for the Copy menu item subclass:
Adding New Classes
Every time you create a new subclass of cCJMenuItem or one of its existing subclasses, that class will be listed in each workspace where the class is accessible.
psImage
If you set the psImage property's initial value in the subclass, the treeview will try to locate that image and display it next to the class name.
psCaption
If you set the psCaption property's initial value in the subclass, the treeview will display the caption next to the class name.
psCategory
If you set the psCategory property's initial value in the subclass, the subclass will be grouped in that category in the treeview.
For more information about setting property initial values in a subclass, refer to the InitialValue Class Member Meta-Data Tag.
