Introduction to PowerBuilder

Menu Painter - Exercises

You need to paint three menus as part of the exercise. Again, don't forget the fact that we will be using these menus in the PowerScript session. Don't neglect painting these menus.

Upon creating menus, you can download files mentioned under 'Exported Menu File Name' and import them into your PowerBuilder library in the Library painter. Then you can compare these menus with your menu objects. Please note that our menu object names are suffixed with '_asi'.

m_sheet_menu

Paint menu "m_mdi_menu" as shown in the following pictures. First picture depicts the menu bar and the second picture depicts each menu bar item in detail. The third picture is the toolbar you assign to this menu. You can see the text below each toolbar icon to help you out in selecting a toolbar icon from the stock pictures while painting the menu.

m_mdi_menu

This menu doesn't need any toolbar. There are only three menubar items.

m_popup_menu

As the name says, we will be using this menu as a popup menu. So, it doesn't need any toolbar icons and it has only one menubar item.
