I specify tpic: How to set "false", " Window" with a method.

Classic Servoy
1

I specify the precedent topic .
The goal is: to hide to some clients “Window” and not to hide to another client “Window”, in a form. Is it possible to make this with a method that set “showInMenu”? If yes, in what manner?
Tanks in advance.

Hi Gianni,

Manipulating standard menus is not supported, I believe, although you can remove them all and then create your own.
Still, if you insist, In your case, hiding/showing the standard Windows menu bar can be achieved this way for example (in Servoy 4+):

/**
 * The index of the 'Window' menu
 */
var windowsMenuIndex = 0;

/**
 * A boolean to hold the visibility state of the 'Window' menu
 */
var windowsMenuShowing = true;

/**
 * Callback method for when solution is opened.
 */
function onSolutionOpen() {
	var cnt = plugins.menubar.getMenuCount();
	for (var i = 0; i < cnt; i++) {
		var menu = plugins.menubar.getMenu(i);
		if (menu.text == 'Window') {
			windowsMenuIndex = i;
		}
	}
}

/**
 * @param (Boolean) set to true to show the menu, false to hide it
 */
function showHideWindowsMenu(show) {
	if (show) {
		plugins.menubar.resetMenuBar();
		windowsMenuShowing = true;
	} else {
		plugins.menubar.removeMenu(windowsMenuIndex);
		windowsMenuShowing = false;
	}
	plugins.menubar.validateMenuBar();
}

And now with Servoy 5.1, you will probably better use the new window plugin to do the same thing.

Hope this helps,

Tank You very much, Patrick. I am studying Your method. After studied and understood, I’ll inform You about the result.
