In Brief

This chapter discussed menus, toolbars, and status bars:

  • MainMenu controls are normal .NET controls that can be dropped onto a designer surface as a nonvisual component to create an application menu. C#Builder includes a Visual Menu Editor that makes it easy and quick to create menus.

  • A ContextMenu applies to a single control and exposes specialized behavior applicable to the context of the control it is assigned to. Even though the ContextMenu is a separate control, it is created and modified in the same way as a MainMenu control.

  • With C#Builder, it's easy to add ToolBar controls to a form and add different types of buttons. Images are added to buttons by adding an ImageList control to the form assigning its images to each button.

  • A StatusBar control can be added to an application by dragging it to the designer surface and configuring its properties. It is easy to add panels to status bars for including status information on multiple aspects of an application.
