Menu Icons

Post by ChristopherBodell » Thu Jan 15, 2009 11:29 pm

Hello,

Is there anything on put icons in the menus, instead of or along with the basic checkmark or hilite symbols?

Hi Christopher,

In the property inspector, you can define a stack panel as menu. In the stack panel, you can create buttons with icons. This won't work on the Mac but should work fine on Windows and Linux. I have an example on RevOnline, user name Mark.

Best,

Mark

Thanks for the quick replies...

I actually have already a few custom menus, in a few different ways, one as you mentioned mark, but i though there might be a way to tell to o.s. or appearance manager, whichever displays the checkmark or hilitemark when the !c or !r is present, but i guess i'll just stick to the basic menu or use my own....

many thanks,
Christopher
