Building a submenu in a GtkMenubar.

St, 06/12/2006 - 07:49 — Marc Quinton

A short tutorial showing how to build a submenu in GtkMenubar. You can refer to the complete GtkMenubar tutorial for full explanations.

Details

GtkMenubar submenu example To build a submenu, first create (see note numbers on source code):

  1. a standard menu (GtkMenu and object tree, see tutorial about this),
  2. a GtkMenuItem supporting the submenu ($view_zoom_item),
  3. a GtkMenu with associated menu items,
  4. and link the submenu to the menu item using set_submenu() method.

Notes :

  • you can create as many submenu levels as needed. Nested submenus are unlimited,
  • popup submenus are create using the same method.
