I was wondering if ToolStripMenus and ContextMenus support icons? (e.g having an icon next to the text), please tell me that they do because I cant find any property like that and if they don't that's a real shame :)
View 4 RepliesTortoiseSVN and Dropbox both have Windows shell extensions that make file icons within Windows Explorer show a small icon beside the main one, showing the file's status - has it been synced, etc How can I make my application show icons beside files like that using the Windows API? Or is there some file attribute to do that?

View 2 RepliesI want to start learning how to add menus to my vb.net projects. how to code and design them.
View 4 RepliesThe situation is that I have a menu strip on the form from which the user can select an item, which opens a sub-menu, which opens another sub-menu which contains a combo box listing some options.
Eg. File>Project>Load>combo-box control
When the item is selected in the combo box, the code executes and modifies values on the same form, but the menu system does not collapse by itself.
I have to click on the form and then the menu system collapses.
I tried setting the focus to the form, but that does not collapse the menu system.
Does anyone know how to get the menus to collapse automatically?

All of my pages are built dynamically in code behind pages (I think thats the correct terminology (?), I load a series on HTML files then builld the page).
I want to use drop down menu (which will be in my header file). I tried this one: [URL]
When building the menu in frontpage in the html file it was perfect. So I added the ref to the css file in my aspx page but rather than allowing for the drop down option is just displayed all options (although the formatting remains as per the stylesheet).
Is there a script or a well known method out there for HTML drop down menus that will work when loaded into an aspx page?

I need to activate only these menus.

I'm trying to construct a database driven VB.Net app that pulls a list of registered accounts from a database and displays the usernames of throes accounts in menu, so the user can select one and a new form open (where they work with it).what I have so far is the constructor for the MDI parent window.[code]What I want to happen is when a user clicks on the context menu a new MDI child form is created and the data in user is passed, however because AddressOf doesn't like passing data this doesn't work.I've looked at delegates and landa expressions but don't think either of them do what I need, the other option is to make my own subclass of the ContextMenuStrip class, which 1) handles the clicks the way I want to and 2) sounds like a nightmare.Before I launch into what I think will be a hell of a lot of work, am I missing something? is their a simple way to do what I want to do? or if not will sub-classing ContextMenuStrip work and if not any ideas as to what will (and if it will, any ideas as to how to start learning how to do that)

I have a form that is a mdi parent. In this form I have a menustrip the allow merge is set to true. I then have another form which is a child form. In this form I have a menustrip, I have the first menuitem merge action set to MatchOnly, then the rest of the menu items merge action are all set to insert. I then have a context menu in the child form, where which has the same menu items as the menustrip.
When i run the app, and show the child form, the menu items get added to the parents menu just how I expected. but the context menu does not display in the child form.
I am working on a project that requires me make a MDI, which I did. The problem that I am having is that none of the menus like the cut and paste work in the MDI Child. I have tried different types of code and still can't get it to work. All I am trying to do is copy or paste text using MDI parent menu controls, rather then creating menu controls for all the MDI children

I know there is a problem with these stupid treeview nodes and getting the ACTUAL node that user clicks on, so I am not surprised by this problem. I have a context menu, and it is assigned to only a certain level of nodes. Also the functions in the context menu execute correctly, the problem is they don't execute on the correct node. It is always the previously selected node, so if I want it to work correctly I have to left click on the node, then right click on it and it everything is peachy-keen.Alright, here is the code I have for one of the context menu strips:[code]However that is not a viable option as i am not getting the variable e as a TreeNodeMouseClickEvenArgs.

I am using Visual Studios 2005 and I am creating an application for our IT Security.Part of the program is for documents and procedures. What I am trying to do is automatically create a menu based on the folders and files. So far I have it taking into account the base folder and one subfolder level and files within it, but I want it to automatically also take into account any subfolders and files that may be added at a later date without having to replicate the code below for each new level. My code is as follows, it is very messy as I am not a programmer.
Code:

I am using VB net 2005.I am also using the ActiveX Control DSOFramer.ocx supplied by Microsoft (url...).I would like to either not show or disable the right-click menus (context menus I think they may be called).If that is not possible, is it possible to replace the menu with my own, maybe just one choice like "Exit"?If that is not possible, can I somehow disable the right-click on the mouse when over this control?I am using the control to view PowerPoint and Excel documents.View only, I've removed Menu and Tool bars.Now just to disable the right-click menus.

I have the Immediate window option available in my menu, but when I click it or do the keyboard shortcut, nothing happens.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to bring up a simple right-click menu on a listbox and I'm having little luck with it. I created a basic ContextMenuStrip named "ContextMenuStrip1" and I'm trying to call it in the ListBox's Mouse Click method:
Code:
Private Sub ListBox1_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListBox1.MouseClick
If (e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right) Then
ContextMenuStrip1.Show(MousePosition)
End If
End Sub
So here's what it's actually doing. The right mouse button doesn't seem to activate MouseClick at all for this object. It is caught in MouseDown, but when I try to call this from that method, the ListBox Index doesn't change. How can I get a right-click to be called from the MouseClick (Not imperative) and how do I get the ListBox to change the index with a right-click?Also, the menu looks like one of Office's right-click menu that can have an image to the left of the text. When I don't have an image the text is about 50 pxls or so away from the left edge. This looks weird. Can I change that?
Is there a way set the spacing of menuitems in the drop-down menus of the MainMenu (MenuStrip)?
