#include <wx/event.h>
This class is used for a variety of menu-related events.
Note that these do not include menu command events, which are handled using wxCommandEvent objects.
Events of this class are generated by both menus that are part of a wxMenuBar, attached to wxFrame, and popup menus shown by wxWindow::PopupMenu(). They are sent to the following objects until one of them handles the event:
This is similar to command events generated by the menu items, but, unlike them, wxMenuEvent are only sent to the window itself and its top level parent but not any intermediate windows in the hierarchy.
The default handler for wxEVT_MENU_HIGHLIGHT
in wxFrame displays help text in the status bar, see wxFrame::SetStatusBarPane().
The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

bool | ShouldPropagate () const |
Test if this event should be propagated or not, i.e. if the propagation level is currently greater than 0. More... | |
void | Skip (bool skip=true) |
This method can be used inside an event handler to control whether further event handlers bound to this event will be called after the current one returns. More... | |

Public Member Functions inherited from wxObject | |
wxObject () | |
Default ctor; initializes to nullptr the internal reference data. More... | |
wxObject (const wxObject &other) | |
Copy ctor. More... | |
virtual | ~wxObject () |
Destructor. More... | |
virtual wxClassInfo * | GetClassInfo () const |

wxMenuEvent::wxMenuEvent | ( | wxEventType | type = wxEVT_NULL , |
int | id = 0 , |
||
wxMenu * | menu = nullptr |
||
) |
Constructor.
wxMenu* wxMenuEvent::GetMenu | ( | ) | const |
Returns the menu which is being opened or closed, or the menu containing the highlighted item.
Note that the returned value can be nullptr if the menu being opened doesn't have a corresponding wxMenu, e.g. this happens when opening the system menu in wxMSW port.
OPEN
, CLOSE
and HIGHLIGHT
events. Before 3.1.3, this method can only be used with the OPEN
and CLOSE
events. int wxMenuEvent::GetMenuId | ( | ) | const |
Returns the menu identifier associated with the event.
This method should be only used with the HIGHLIGHT
events.
bool wxMenuEvent::IsPopup | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the menu which is being opened or closed is a popup menu, false if it is a normal one.
This method should only be used with the OPEN
and CLOSE
events.
