Choose File, New, Other, TMS Wizard, TMS ToolBar Application wizard : A new application with TAdvToolBarPager will be createdHandling shortcuts
As menus are assigned to a toolbar and not to a form and the form is responsible for shortcut handling, the TAdvToolBar's shortcuts can be handled by adding the following code in the form's OnShortCut event:procedure TForm1.FormShortCut(var Msg: TWMKey; var Handled: Boolean); begin Handled := AdvToolBar1.IsShortCut(Msg); end;
Using a toolbar customizerDrop a TAdvToolBar and TAdvToolBarCustomizer on the form
Assign the AdvToolBar to AdvToolBarCustomizer.AdvToolBar. Click the toolbar right-handle and the toolbar customizer dialog will automatically appear.Upgrading from TAdvToolBar v1.x
Make sure to FIRST reopen ALL form files in your application that use the TAdvToolBar and/or TAdvToolBar styler components, ignore all property errors upon opening the forms and save the form files before rebuilding your application.Using menu items with Notes
A menu item with a Notes text can be setup using \n to separate lines, ieMenuItem.Caption := 'MenuCaption\nLine 1 of the notes text\nLine 2 of the notes text';
