Action Item Not Firing

I am attempting to create a window following the example of the StrataFlix application. I have my window and a dialog with action items defined. The action items have a click event associated with them; however, when I click on a menu item after the dialog comes up, nothing happens. The click event is not firing.



Thoughts?



Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill,



Make your your ActionLinkMenuItem.vb is the same code as in the StrataFlix. There is an OnClick() method which is responsible to raise the Click() event in there.



So you need to have in your project the ActionLinkMenuItem.vb and the ActionLinkMenuItemCollection.vb classes.

Yup...I have the classes referenced. The OnClick event is filled with code. The action items get wired up just fine, with images and everything (it really is sweet). Clicking the item does nothing however...the event simply does not fire.

What does your class look like?

I did a close review of one form that was working and the one that wasn't. The missing code was:





private void tlmActions_ItemClicked(object sender, MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.ThemedLinkMenuClickEventArgs e)

{

((ActionLinkMenuItem)e.Item).OnClick();

}





Works like a charm, now! Thanks!! BigGrin

Yeah, that is what I thought might have been missing. Good eye! Smile
