I have a MenuStrip created at design time with a number of ToolStripItems and ToolStripSeparators. By default when a user clicks on one of the separators the menu closes but nothing happens (as there is nothing in the separator click event). I would like the menu to stay open if a user clicks on the separator, but how do I handle this?

Below is the code that is adding a toolstripmenuitem at runtime. I do need to check elsewhere to see if it exists. What I have below is incorrect. How would I change the conditional check below?
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems.Add("Save")
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2).Click += New EventHandler(SaveFile_Click)
If ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2) IsNot Nothing Then
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2).Text = rm.GetString("Save")
End If
I want my program to detect and do something when ToolStripMenuItem is clicked.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to set the color of my toolstripmenuitems on form_load. Been trying something like:

I am having trouble figuring out a way to add click events to ToolStripMenuItems generated off data from a ListView object.In short, i have a ToolStripButton called 'View', in that i have a ToolStripMenuItem called 'Group'- What i have already accomplished is adding sub-items to the 'Group' ToolStripMenuButton. These items are based of ListViewGroups inside of my ListView.
Here is the code for what i've done so far:
Code:
Private Sub ToolStripButton3_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton3.MouseEnter
'LOAD GROUPS INTO MENU LIST
GroupToolStripMenuItem2.DropDownItems.Clear()
[code]....
As you can see, this will generate a ToolStripMenuItem inside the 'Group' ToolStripMenuItem for each group that is located inside my ListView- as well as add a constant ToolStripMenuItem, 'All', for viewing all groups again.What i am unsure on how to do is program in the OnClick Event for each of the generated ToolStripMenuItems?
I have in a menu a ToolStripTextBox where the user can enter a CASE NUMBER to FIND. And I have a ToolStripMenuItem below that says QUICK FIND - clicking this will find the case you put in the textbox. Tabbing out of the textbox puts you at this TOOLSTRIPMENUITEM so that ENTER on the keyboard will trigger the FIND. I want to make it so that pressing ENTER while still in the textbox will trigger that same TOOLSTRIPMENUITEM action. Do I have to trap keypresses or is there a more natural way to accomplish this?
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to do MVP where I have a view specific model that the presenter manipulates and the view binds to. There is no other connection between the presenter and view (the view fires off commands to the domain model via a gateway type pattern).
As you can guess, this makes the ability to bind to any property of any object really important.
I'm having trouble finding the correct way to bind to the Enabled property of a ToolStripMenuItem. Most controls have a .DataBindings property, but this one seems to lack it. I haven't found much info online about how to do this. Is it even possible?
How do you change the color of a toolstripmenuItem when it is selected?

I understand that Checked is a boolean, which is not the case of CheckState.I understand that CheckState also have a undeterminate possible value.But I don't understand why we have them both. I think that CheckState would be sufficient. What is the need for Checked ?
View 10 RepliesI have a context menu attached to a panel, that should mirror commands available in a toolbar menu.Currently in my MouseUp event, I set the enabled state of the MenuItems, and add them to the context menu:

ctxMnuLinks.Items.Add(New ToolStripSeparator)

So I have a ToolStrip menu item "New", when pressed it creates an MDI child window and adds new toolstrip menu item to the parent window and when clicked it focuses on the window I created before, so I could easly navigate if I have loads of windows. This code perfectly works in VS2008:
Private Sub NewToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NewToolStripMenuItem.Click
Dim frm As New Form()
Static ic As New Integer
ic += 1
