Have you read about menus and toolbars in the gtkmm tutorial, chapter 12?
http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm-tutorial/stable/
It contains an example with UIManager. However there is no example of a
menu in a toolbar. I don't think that's possible. The description of
Gtk::UIManager at
http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm/stable/classGtk_1_1UIManager.html#details
says "every menuitem must have a menubar or popup in its ancestry". A
toolbar won't do, it seems.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to create a drop-down menu on a toolbar using the UIManager
and I can't figure it out. The documentation mentions something about
specifying a Gtk::MenuToolButton as a proxy for the associated action
but I'm not sure how to do that. One thing I thought was that I could
manually create it like this:
Gtk::MenuToolButton* menu_button = manage(new Gtk::MenuToolButton());
menu_button->set_related_action(ref_manager_action_group->get_action("MyAction");
and then for the ui string:
<ui>...
...
<toolbar name="Toolbar">
<toolitem action="MyAction">
<menu action='ToolMenu'>
<menuitem action="Action1">
<menuitem action="Action2">
</menu>
</toolitem>
</toolbar>
...
</ui>
Any help is appreciated!
Steve
