DynamicVisibilty Flag and MenuController

Question

Hi,

 

I am having below button in my vsct file and this is going to be use in two groups (Context Menu and MenuController). This Button should be supported “DynamicVisibility”.

 

<Button guid="guidCmdSet" id="cmdidRemoveBreakpointMenuItem" priority="0x0100" type="Button">

        <Parent guid="guidCmdSet" id="grpidContextMain"/>

        <Icon guid="guidBreakpointStatus" id="bmpDeleteBP" />

        <CommandFlag>DefaultDisabled</CommandFlag>

        <CommandFlag>DynamicVisibility</CommandFlag>

        <CommandFlag>IconAndText</CommandFlag>

        <Strings>

          <ButtonText>Remove Breakpoint(s)</ButtonText>

          <ToolTipText>Remove breakpoints in all the selected connections.</ToolTipText>

        </Strings>

      </Button>

 

Once I add “DynamicVisibility” command flag it does not showing up in the MenuController. Is there any flag to set it ‘Default Visible’ in the MenuController?

 

Thanks!

Hello, CJ

Your name is the same to protagonist in GTA3.:)

For the all the value of <CommandFlag>, you could reference this link Command Flag Element. Seems there is not a value like default visible.

If you want your Button appear in both place. You should write two copy of the same button ID, and make there parents different.

      <Button guid="guidVSPackageForVSCTCmdSet" id="cmdidVSCTCommand" priority="0x0100" type="Button">
        <Parent guid="guidVSPackageForVSCTCmdSet" id="MyMenuGroup" />
        <Icon guid="guidImages" id="bmpPic1" />
        <CommandFlag>DynamicVisibility</CommandFlag>
        <Strings>
          <CommandName>cmdidVSCTCommand</CommandName>
          <ButtonText>My VSCT  name</ButtonText>
        </Strings>
      </Button>
      
      <Button guid="guidVSPackageForVSCTCmdSet" id="cmdidVSCTCommand" priority="0x0100" type="Button">
        <Parent guid="guidVSPackageForVSCTCmdSet" id="CTXMenuGroup" />
        <Icon guid="guidImages" id="bmpPic1" />
        <CommandFlag>DynamicVisibility</CommandFlag>
        <Strings>
          <CommandName>cmdidVSCTCommand</CommandName>
          <ButtonText>My VSCT  name</ButtonText>
        </Strings>
      </Button>
