Seperators in GetSubContainer

[Boony2000]

Hi again!

I am still messing around with custom menus. Is it possible to add any kind of seperator inside a submenu?
Trying to insert a seperator inside GetSubContainer doesn't do anything.

I am trying to do something like the redshift menu has.

Or do the seperators here mean that the grouped entries are seperate commandData Plugins?

A workaround might be to add disabled entries that display a line by naming them "----------&d&"
Is there documentation on stuff like &d& or [name]&i[iconID]&? Finding these nuggets of wisdom by chance in random forums is not a very efficient way to figure out stuff.

Hi @Boony2000

In a GetSubContainer, to insert a separator use InsData(0, "") The ID used should always be 0. As described in ShowPopupDialog Example.

Which give us

    def GetSubContainer(self, doc, submenu) :
        menuItems = [["name1"], ["name2", "hasIcon"], ["name3"]]

        for i, data in enumerate(menuItems) :
            if len(data) > 1:
                submenu.SetString(i+1000, data[0] + "&i" + str(c4d.IDM_KEY_NEXT) + "&")
                submenu.InsData(0, "")
            else:
                submenu.SetString(i+1000, data[0])

        return True

Cheers,
Maxime.
