Menu Image [message #254115] Thu, 17 April 2008 11:32 Go to next message

Hi.
I am dynamically creating a context/popup menu whenever I startup.
It creates a menu item, with a dynamic amount of sub menus.

All is well with the menu, but I want to be able to put an image on the
menu, and not the sub menus.

Currently the code is like this:

final MenuManager menuDynamic = new
MenuManage(PrefConstants.TEMPLATE_MENU_NAME,null);

menuDynamic.add(new Action(PrefConstants.TEMPLATE_MENU_FAKE){});
menuDynamic.setRemoveAllWhenShown(true);

<--- I want to set the image on the menuDynamic object around here....

while (items)
{
....//add children
}

Is this possible to do?

Regards,
Andrew

What are you hoping to see? "image on the menu" doesn't make any sense
to me" You can put an image on a menu item (Action), but not on a menu
itself.

Wayne,

Apologies for the confusion.
My context menu contains a parent, for example, 'Mortys Menu'.
I have added several actions to this as children, for example 'Do This'
and 'Do That'.

I want to place an icon beside the text 'Mortys Menu' in the context menu.

Again apologies for the confusion.

Regards,
Andrew

I poked around a bit and, sadly, my answer at this point is
"dunno" (though, after a quick review of some of the menus in the
Eclipse IDE, it seems possible).

I recommend moving this question to the eclipse.platform newsgroup;
somebody there may have an answer.

HTH,

Wayne
