[C#]Menu

[Mangix]

im trying to create a menu with C# by using #develop but it doesnt let me.

the IDE lets me add items to a menu item but it doesnt let me specify the parent menu item. that sounds confusing so here's a screenshot.

so does anyone know how i can make the ContextMenu thing have any text? i've tried editing the #develop generated text but i dont see anything for the context menu

edit: bah i solved it. seems i was using the wrong object -_-

You needed to use a MainMenu instead of a ContextMenu.

yeah i figured that out

but now i get a diffrent problem. im trying to make an event for one of the menu items but im having difficulty with it. the #develop IDE does it by doing

Code Select Expand

this.Load = System.EventHandler(this.MainFormLoad); but im having difficulty figuring out what to put in the EventHandler cause i dont see any option in the "this" object to handle Menu Events

[MyndFyre]

MenuItem events aren't handled via the Load event.  They're handled via the MenuItem.Click event:

Code Select Expand


this.menuItem1.Click += new EventHandler(menuItem1_Click);


[Mangix]

that was a example for a Form's Load Event

i tried

Code Select Expand

this.mnuExit.Click += new System.EventHandler(mnuExit_Click); and got the error

The name 'mnuExit_Click' does not exist in the class or namespace 'Mangix.MainForm'(CS0103)'

Did you create a function:

Code Select Expand


public void mnuExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {}

?

[Mangix]

just did and it fixed the error. thank you
