Dynamically add manu items under popup tool
posted

I have a background worker that checks for updates. If there is updates I want to be able to dynamically load the name of the updates under a popup menu tool item within the toolbar. These items will be just labels.

How would I go about doing the adding of the new items to the popup menu tool

    Hello,

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    You can either create a PopupMenuTool and add it to a particular Toolbar or use an existing PopupMenuTool and create label tools with these update captions and add it to the PopupMenuTool.

    Take a look at the following code:

    PopupMenuTool     pt1 = (PopupMenuTool) this.ultraToolbarsManager1.Tools["PopupMenuTool1"];

    //Create a LabelTool with appropriate caption
    LabelTool l1 = new LabelTool("LabelToolKey1");
    l1.SharedProps.Caption =     "Update1";

    //Add this labeltool to the UltraToolbarsManager's Tools collection
    this    .ultraToolbarsManager1.Tools.Add(l1);

    //Add this tool to the ToolsCollection of the corresponding PopupMenuTool
    pt1.Tools.AddTool(    "LabelToolKey1");

    Please let me know if this helps.

    Thanks
