APPS10 Menu Item

Hi ​@Nethmi98, 

Steps to Add a Context Menu Item (RMB Option)

Source: How To - Add a context menu item

1. Open the Customized Form in Designer Mode

   • For example, open tbwCustomerInfoOverview_Cust in Designer mode.

2. Create a New Command

   • In the Available Commands panel, create a command (e.g., cmdShow) and set its Caption (e.g., Show).
   • Click Events, then double-click the Execute attribute to generate an event handler (e.g., cmdShow_Execute).

3. Add Logic to Event Handler

   • Inside the handler, write code to perform the desired action (e.g., navigate to another window or show a message):

     private void cmdShow_Execute(object sender, Fnd.Windows.Forms.FndCommandExecuteEventArgs e)
     
     {
     
     e.Handled = true;
     
     // Example: Show a message
     
     FndMessageBox.Show("Started cmd_Execute!", "My Customization");
     
     // Or implement navigation logic here
     
     }

      

4. Create a New Context Menu

   • In the Action Tree panel, add a new context menu under Context menus folder (e.g., menuTbwMethods_Cust).
   • Add a menu item (e.g., menuItem_Show) and connect it to the command you created (cmdShow).

5. Run and Test

   • Open the customized window in IEE.
   • RMB-click on the table window → your new menu item should appear at the bottom of the context menu.

Important Notes

• Customized menu items are appended to existing context menus by creating a new context menu with the same name as the original plus the layer name (e.g., menuFrmMethods_Cust).
• If you need to reposition menu items, override OnRearrangeMergedMenuItems and use methods like:

  contextMenu.MoveItemAfter(this.menuItemCustom2, this.menuItemValid);

  This allows you to move items before/after specific existing items.

Hope this helpful.
