I can answer one of your questions Jeremy. You can set the checkmark and
unset it as well on a menu it after the menu has been created.
### menu definition:
my $MainMenu = new Win32::GUI::Menu(
"&File" => "File",
" > Update All &Data" => "GetData",
" > -" => 0,
" > E&xit" => "FileExit",
"&Search" => "Search",
" > Find &Name" => {-name => "FindName", -checked => 1},
" > Find &Building" => {-name => "FindBuilding", -checked => 0},
" > Find &Adapter Address" => {-name => "FindAdapter", -checked =>
0},
"&View" => "View",
" > Lar&ge Icons" => {-name => "ViewLarge", -checked => 0},
" > S&mall Icons" => {-name => "ViewSmall", -checked => 0},
" > &List" => {-name => "ViewList", checked => 0},
" > &Details" => {-name => "ViewDetails", -checked => 1},
"&Tools" => "Tools",
" > Add User Information" => "AddUser",
" > -" => 0,
" > Report &Problem" => "ReportProblem",
"&Help" => "Help",
" > About" => "About",
);
### main window definition that has the menu:
my $MainWindow = new Win32::GUI::Window(
-name => "MainWindow",
-top => ($screen_height - $minheight)/2,
-left => ($screen_width - $minwidth)/2,
-width => $minwidth,
-height => $minheight,
-minsize=> [$minwidth,$minheight],
-title => "$titlebar - No Data Loaded",
-menu => $MainMenu,
-class => $dbv_class,
);
### to change the checkmark from the "View -> Details" item to "View ->
List" you would put
### the following in your code:
sub ViewList_Click {
$MainMenu->{ViewLarge}->Checked(0);
$MainMenu->{ViewSmall}->Checked(0);
$MainMenu->{ViewList}->Checked(1); ### this turns on the checkmark
$MainMenu->{ViewDetails}->Checked(0); ### this turns off the checkmark
$MainWindow->DataView->SetImageList($user_sm);
$MainWindow->DataView->View(3);
$MainWindow->DataView->Arrange();
return;
}
I hope this helps. This came from a file in gatorbase.zip that i told the
group about. Check out the programs and maybe it will answer some of your
questions.
