Vistamenu - Adding images through code

[bjbinc]

I'm trying to use the vistamenu1.setimages to assign images to dynamically created context menuitems. It works great for first level items, but I cannot get it to work for sub items. Please help.

I now realize that I cannot even set images in design mode for submenus

It works for me, can you send me a simple example that's not working?

Send it to wyatt@wyday.com .

Thanks for the reply. I sent you a small example. I appreciate any help.

Thanks for spotting this - I'll try to work on a fix this weekend.

[bjbinc]

THANK YOU!!! I was so bummed when it didn't work cuz I really need it.

[bjbinc]

Any luck???

[Wyatt]

Yes. This is a definitely a bug on our part. We'll have a new release out a little later this week.

I've uploaded the latest version of VistaMenu. It fixes a few other bugs. But the bug you saw was due to a bug in Microsoft's implementation of the ContextMenu control.

The way to get around the bug is to set the Form's "ContextMenu" property to the context menu you want to use:

Code: Select all

this.ContextMenu = contextMenu1;

Instead of dynamically showing the context menu using contextMenu1.Show()

That should work for you.

Thank you! That works. All I had to do was set the form's context menu and I'm still able to show it through contextmenu1.show() which is great because that is unavoidable in my case.
