    Hi again,

    I'm filling a lot of submenus dynamically on runtime when they will be opened. That's not possible with TActionMainMenuBar or TActionToolBar I think. And SpTBX allows also to define toolbar button as dropdown menus. Then the button itself can be activated or its dropdown menu can be opened. That seems also not possible with Delphi's standard controls.

    Best regards

    If necessary, a chevron button is added automatically to an ActionToolBar as far as I know (never needed one).

    And as I just see, these components aren't new, they are already available in Delphi 7. But I didn't ever use them…

    Hi Uwe,

    Have you thought about an even simpler solution – using TActionMainMenuBar and TActionToolbar instead?

    yes I did and honestly I'm still not really sure that I can't use a simpler solution, maybe I can. I didn't know TActionMainMenuBar and TActionToolbar by now as I used Delphi 7 in the past. Now I have a brand new licence for Delphi XE5, with wich some new components are available it seems. I have to check, for example if the TActionToolbar will show a submenu with all items which do not fit into available space (chevron button?). That's very important for me.

    Best regards

    Hi,

    By now I'm using SpTBX for menus and toolbars. As I see it doesn't work with your skinning system. I'm willing to buy something, do you have recommendation for me? My limit is about 100 € I think. Is there a chance to get it working with menu and toolbar by TMS Software?

    I will answer my question for myself now 🙄 I thought about it again, with the result that I will continue using SpTBX together with Alpha Controls. As I'm very satisfied with SpTBX and it is skinnable itself, I will do the skinning of SpTBX in my code with all the values I get from the currently set Aplpha Skin.

    Best regards
