Sub menu for a sub menu?

rwamoore · April 22, 2023, 4:14pm

Is it possible to create a sub menu for an Extensions sub menu in ruby?

CUIN = UI::Command.new('cuin') { cmd_cuin() }

cmd_menu = UI.menu('Plugins').add_submenu('Commands')
unit_menu = UI.menu('Commands').add_submenu('Units')
unit_menu.add_item(CUIN)

Thanks.

Yep exactly like that!

My code is an abomination and I hesitate to share it here because it could mislead more than help… but I can share it with you if you’d like.

That would be great just need a point in the right direction, just PM me.

Okay - I have to dig it up so give me a minute.

Here it is for anyone interested:

if !defined?(@loaded)

  menu = UI.menu('Plugins')
  submenu = menu.add_submenu('1st Level')
    #SUBMENU LEVEL 2
  sub_submenu = submenu.add_submenu('2nd Level')
    #SUBMENU LEVEL 3 
  sub_submenu.add_item('3rd Level') { puts 'Victory!' }
  @loaded  = true

end

Here is a similar form (Menu, SubMenu, Toolbar), plus toolbar launch from SubMenu.

OOOOH! Fancy, lots of functional possibilities there for sure. My next big step is learning the html dialog to make my own interface(s).

I couldn’t figure the html dialog out. That’s how I ended-up on the road to madness shown in the images. And in the code you saw (I hope you’re alright after seeing it).

Here’s how this one looks with some of the toolbars open. Let me know if you’d like the (grizzly but commented) code.

Please tag me if you put any demos of html dialog up.
