#include </home/zeitlin/src/wx/github/interface/wx/menuitem.h>
A menu item represents an item in a menu.
Note that you usually don't have to deal with it directly as wxMenu methods usually construct an object of this class for you.
Also please note that the methods related to fonts and bitmaps are currently only implemented for Windows, Mac and GTK+.
The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:
Event macros for events emitted by this class:
wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED
command, which is generated by a menu item. This type of event is sent as wxCommandEvent. wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_RANGE
command, which is generated by a range of menu items. This type of event is sent as wxCommandEvent. Public Member Functions | |

Constructs a wxMenuItem object.
Menu items can be standard, or "stock menu items", or custom. For the standard menu items (such as commands to open a file, exit the program and so on, see Stock items for the full list) it is enough to specify just the stock ID and leave text and helpString empty. Some platforms (currently wxGTK only, and see the remark in SetBitmap() documentation) will also show standard bitmaps for stock menu items.
Leaving at least text empty for the stock menu items is actually strongly recommended as they will have appearance and keyboard interface (including standard accelerators) familiar to the user.
For the custom (non-stock) menu items, text must be specified and while helpString may be left empty, it's recommended to pass the item description (which is automatically shown by the library in the status bar when the menu item is selected) in this parameter.
Finally note that you can e.g. use a stock menu label without using its stock help string:
// use all stock properties: helpMenu->Append(wxID_ABOUT); // use the stock label and the stock accelerator but not the stock help string: helpMenu->Append(wxID_ABOUT, "", "My custom help string"); // use all stock properties except for the bitmap: wxMenuItem *mymenu = new wxMenuItem(helpMenu, wxID_ABOUT); mymenu->SetBitmap(wxArtProvider::GetBitmap(wxART_WARNING)); helpMenu->Append(mymenu);
that is, stock properties are set independently one from the other.
parentMenu | Menu that the menu item belongs to. Can be NULL if the item is going to be added to the menu later. |
id | Identifier for this menu item. May be wxID_SEPARATOR , in which case the given kind is ignored and taken to be wxITEM_SEPARATOR instead. |
text | Text for the menu item, as shown on the menu. See SetItemLabel() for more info. |
helpString | Optional help string that will be shown on the status bar. |
kind | May be wxITEM_SEPARATOR , wxITEM_NORMAL , wxITEM_CHECK or wxITEM_RADIO . |
subMenu | If non-NULL, indicates that the menu item is a submenu. |
virtual wxMenuItem::~wxMenuItem | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Destructor.
virtual void wxMenuItem::Check | ( | bool | check = true | ) | [virtual] |
Checks or unchecks the menu item.
Note that this only works when the item is already appended to a menu.
virtual void wxMenuItem::Enable | ( | bool | enable = true | ) | [virtual] |
Enables or disables the menu item.
wxColour& wxMenuItem::GetBackgroundColour | ( | ) | const |
Returns the background colour associated with the menu item.
virtual const wxBitmap& wxMenuItem::GetBitmap | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns the checked or unchecked bitmap.
wxFont& wxMenuItem::GetFont | ( | ) | const |
Returns the font associated with the menu item.
const wxString& wxMenuItem::GetHelp | ( | ) | const |
Returns the help string associated with the menu item.
int wxMenuItem::GetId | ( | ) | const |
Returns the menu item identifier.
virtual wxString wxMenuItem::GetItemLabel | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns the text associated with the menu item including any accelerator characters that were passed to the constructor or SetItemLabel().
virtual wxString wxMenuItem::GetItemLabelText | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns the text associated with the menu item, without any accelerator characters.
wxItemKind wxMenuItem::GetKind | ( | ) | const |
Returns the item kind, one of wxITEM_SEPARATOR
, wxITEM_NORMAL
, wxITEM_CHECK
or wxITEM_RADIO
.
wxString wxMenuItem::GetLabel | ( | ) | const |
Returns the text associated with the menu item without any accelerator characters it might contain.
Strips all accelerator characters and mnemonics from the given text.
以下に例を示します:
wxMenuItem::GetLabelfromText("&Hello\tCtrl-h");
will return just "Hello"
.
int wxMenuItem::GetMarginWidth | ( | ) | const |
Gets the width of the menu item checkmark bitmap.
wxMenu* wxMenuItem::GetMenu | ( | ) | const |
Returns the menu this menu item is in, or NULL if this menu item is not attached.
wxString wxMenuItem::GetName | ( | ) | const |
Returns the text associated with the menu item.
wxMenu* wxMenuItem::GetSubMenu | ( | ) | const |
Returns the submenu associated with the menu item, or NULL if there isn't one.
const wxString& wxMenuItem::GetText | ( | ) | const |
Returns the text associated with the menu item, such as it was passed to the wxMenuItem constructor, i.e.
with any accelerator characters it may contain.
wxColour& wxMenuItem::GetTextColour | ( | ) | const |
Returns the text colour associated with the menu item.
bool wxMenuItem::IsCheckable | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the item is checkable.
virtual bool wxMenuItem::IsChecked | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns true if the item is checked.
virtual bool wxMenuItem::IsEnabled | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns true if the item is enabled.
bool wxMenuItem::IsSeparator | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the item is a separator.
bool wxMenuItem::IsSubMenu | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the item is a submenu.
void wxMenuItem::SetBackgroundColour | ( | const wxColour & | colour | ) |
Sets the background colour associated with the menu item.
virtual void wxMenuItem::SetBitmap | ( | const wxBitmap & | bmp, |
bool | checked = true |
||
) | [virtual] |
Sets the bitmap for the menu item.
It is equivalent to wxMenuItem::SetBitmaps(bmp, wxNullBitmap) if checked is true (default value) or SetBitmaps(wxNullBitmap, bmp) otherwise.
Notice that GTK+ uses a global setting called gtk-menu-images
to determine if the images should be shown in the menus at all. If it is off (which is the case in e.g. Gnome 2.28 by default), no images will be shown, consistently with the native behaviour.
void wxMenuItem::SetBitmaps | ( | const wxBitmap & | checked, |
const wxBitmap & | unchecked = wxNullBitmap |
||
) |
Sets the checked/unchecked bitmaps for the menu item.
The first bitmap is also used as the single bitmap for uncheckable menu items.
void wxMenuItem::SetFont | ( | const wxFont & | font | ) |
Sets the font associated with the menu item.
void wxMenuItem::SetHelp | ( | const wxString & | helpString | ) |
Sets the help string.
virtual void wxMenuItem::SetItemLabel | ( | const wxString & | label | ) | [virtual] |
Sets the label associated with the menu item.
Note that if the ID of this menu item corresponds to a stock ID, then it is not necessary to specify a label: wxWidgets will automatically use the stock item label associated with that ID. See the constructor for more info.
The label string for the normal menu items (not separators) may include the accelerator which can be used to activate the menu item from keyboard. An accelerator key can be specified using the ampersand &
character. In order to embed an ampersand character in the menu item text, the ampersand must be doubled.
Optionally you can specify also an accelerator string appending a tab character \t
followed by a valid key combination (e.g. CTRL+V
). Its general syntax is any combination of "CTRL"
, "RAWCTRL"
, "ALT"
and "SHIFT"
strings (case doesn't matter) separated by either '-'
or '+'
characters and followed by the accelerator itself. Notice that CTRL
corresponds to the "Ctrl" key on most platforms but not under Mac OS where it is mapped to "Cmd" key on Mac keyboard. Usually this is exactly what you want in portable code but if you really need to use the (rarely used for this purpose) "Ctrl" key even under Mac, you may use RAWCTRL
to prevent this mapping. Under the other platforms RAWCTRL
is the same as plain CTRL
.
The accelerator may be any alphanumeric character, any function key (from F1 to F12) or one of the special characters listed in the table below (again, case doesn't matter):
DEL
