I am not using the menubar object. I am using a popup menu built with the Popup Notify add-on. How can I add icons to this object/

standard contex menu uses imagelist that is defined on menubar properties dialog :yes
as i mentioned above

i have no idea about Popup Notify add-on

How do you make the icons image list file - I can't seem to find this in apms help file, I have adobe photoshop and lots of icons to use to make the bmp - but what are the icon specs and how does the apms know where one icon starts and another begins for that bmp file.

This tool is great for making image lists.

They just told you how. Popup menus use the image list from the main application menu.

Or.
1 : from main menu choose Project >> MenuBar
2 : check Use Image List and add your image list to that field
3 : click OK

that's all

IconID:

The 0-based icon index from the Image List specified on the Menu Bar to use for the menu item.

Icons for Popup Menus

I have gone thru this thread but cannot add icons to my popup menu.
Where do I need to put my image so that it is linked the Icon ID.

Here is my code

tblMenu = {};
tblMenu[1] ={};
tblMenu[1].Text = "Case Management";
tblMenu[1].ID = 100
[B]tblMenu[1].IconID=0[/B]
tblMenu[1].Checked = false;
tblMenu[1].Enabled = true;
tblMenu[2] ={};
tblMenu[2].Text = "Security Management";
tblMenu[2].ID = 200;
tblMenu[2].Checked = false;
tblMenu[2].Enabled = true;
tblMenu[3] ={};
tblMenu[3].Text = "Audit Trail";
tblMenu[3].ID = 300;
tblMenu[3].Checked = false;
tblMenu[3].Enabled = true;
tblMenu[4] ={};
tblMenu[4].Text = "Media Library";
tblMenu[4].ID = 400;
tblMenu[4].Checked = false;
tblMenu[4].Enabled = true;
tblMenu[5] ={};
tblMenu[5].Text = "Phone Book";
tblMenu[5].ID = 500;
tblMenu[5].Checked = false;
tblMenu[5].Enabled = true;

nTrayMenu = Application.ShowPopupMenu(376, 80, tblMenu, TPM_LEFTALIGN, TPM_TOPALIGN, true, true);

Thanks

How can I make an ImageList please ?

Are you asking seriously? If you actually read the posts in this thread, and still don't know how to create image strips for the menus, then it might be a good idea to hire someone to make them for you.

There are tons of softwares to create, export, or convert to bitmaps. Use Windows Paintbrush, for example. Or better and specific ones for making image strips like those used in the menus of AMS.

try this, its not finished yet and may contain 1 or 2 bugs, but it will create imagelists
