Nested Right Click Menus

Hi Team,

 

I feel like this must have been asked before but I can't find any information about it... Please link to an existing thread if this is a duplicate.

 

How can we make nested right-click menus like in the image below?

I assumed it would be like the project provider where you just add a backslash in the menu name, but this doesn't seem to work.

 

 

Example of how it's done with project providers. Doesn't work with RCMs?

You can find an example here. The "Create Event" plugin menu uses submenu's.

But it is not as straight forward as what you describe.

Cheers, Stefan! using that example I was able to really quickly make a PoC

Although not as straight forward as I thought, it's still really do-able 🙂

Hi McQuillan,

 

have you tried to create a RTM file with the menu editor available in the LabVIEW IDE? ("Edit" menu -> "Run-Time menu")

 

There you can use 4 arrow buttons to order menu items…

Best regards,
