Detailed Description

Provides a menu item.

SIGNALS

• activate_signal Received whenever user selects an item

TIP

Menu item caption line is parsed and an acceleartor is installed if an underscore is found. By default installs Alt + underscored key

  VDKMenuItem *item = new VDKMenuItem(menu,"_Accelerated");
  // alt+a triggers activate_signal

If accelerated menu item does not have submenus using accelerated key makes activate_signal to be emitted, otherwise the submenu branch will be displayed

EXAMPLES

In ./testvdk/testvdk.cc

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

VDKMenuItem::VDKMenuItem (  VDKMenu *    menu, const char *    prompt = NULL, char **    pixmap = NULL, guint    key = GDK_VoidSymbol, guint8    modkey = GDK_MOD1_MASK, bool    accel = true )

Constructor, makes a menu item to be assigned to a menu Parameters: menu  owner menu prompt  menu caption pixmap  pixmap data key  accelerator key modkey  accelerator key modifier accel  wheter should contain an accelerator or not A pixmap will be packed at start if <pixmap> isn't NULL. Leaving <key> to default value makes <label> to be parsed for accelerators. For instance label == "_Quit" makes the accelerator as alt+q. Setting <key> other then default overrides label parsing, setting <modkey> to other than default overrides <alt> modifier.

VDKMenuItem::VDKMenuItem (  VDKMenubar *    bar, const char *    prompt = NULL, char **    pixmap = NULL, int    align = l_justify, guint    key = GDK_VoidSymbol, guint8    modkey = GDK_MOD1_MASK, bool    accel = true )

Constructor, makes a menu item to be assigned to a menu bar Parameters: bar  owner menu bar prompt  menu caption pixmap  pixmap data align  label alignement key  accelerator key modkey  accelerator key modifier accel  wheter should contain an accelerator or not
