Hi Jules,
I’ve no idea how nobody has not come across this before, but you can’t add a PopupMenu::CustomComponent with a submenu, therefore having to add it as a regular Component… Adding the option for a submenu with a CustomComponent lets JUCE users advantage of the item highlighting. Here be code to do just that:
juce_PopupMenu.h:
void addCustomItem (int itemResultID, CustomComponent* customComponent,
const PopupMenu* optionalSubMenu = nullptr);juce_PopupMenu.cpp:
void PopupMenu::addCustomItem (const int itemResultID, CustomComponent* const customComponent,
const PopupMenu* optionalSubMenu)
{
jassert (itemResultID != 0); // 0 is used as a return value to indicate that the user
// didn't pick anything, so you shouldn't use it as the id
// for an item..
items.add (new Item (itemResultID, String::empty, true, false, Image::null,
Colours::black, false, customComponent, optionalSubMenu, nullptr));
}
