Re: bb4win_mod 1.19 - bbStyleMaker compatible :D
You are right. That is the code that is used in the Core for building Menus with icons. You can try writing new code for the plugin to include the icon item in the MakeMenuItem code. The code would loop through a custom menu and build a pluginMenu out of it. That way, the EndUser will be able to specify which applications & which icons they wish to use. Nobody's done it yet. ATM all plugin menus are hard-coded. Good luck!

At the moment, none of the shells support icons in plugin menus.
It is possible to have icons increase ín size with a MouseOver - like RocketDock. The problem is - with the existing toolbar plugins - that *all* icons (& so the whole Toolbar) would increase in size; not just the item that had the focus. why in BBAPI we have: Quote: API_EXPORT MenuItem *MakeMenuItem(Menu *PluginMenu, LPCSTR Title, LPCSTR Cmd, bool ShowIndicator); if in the Menu.h:218:2 we have analog with: Quote: friend MenuItem* MakeMenuItem(Menu *PluginMenu, LPCSTR Title, LPCSTR Cmd, bool ShowIndicator, LPCSTR Icon); i suggest this used in main code for draw a BBmenu with icons?

You can make custom menus *with icons* by adapting an existing menu or using the documentation. bb4win_mod 1.19 ships with icons enabled in its menu. bbMenu is a plugin that is largely superseded. It was created to make additional menus available in the bb4win 0.92 (& earlier) and early versions of xoblite where it was not possible to create custom menus. It does not support menu icons. Can you help me better understand what you're looking for?

are this api (void MenuItemOption(MenuItem *pItem, int option, ...);) still work??? You need to be using bbMien|bb4win_mod 7.11. AFAIK MenuItemOption is only supported by bbMien|bb4win_mod 7.11 & bbLean 1.17. it is impossible, because there is no icon size control like at bb4win_mod 1.19 are there any way to make menu with icons (like BBmenu) in bb4win_mod ?

The default menu.rc that comes in the zip package has several [include] statements. Perhaps your problems have something to do with either the settings being used either in blackbox.rc for session:menufile: or the paths you are setting for your include statements?

Re: bb4win_mod 1.19 - bbStyleMaker compatible :D
- Each one of the Openbox style files in the package was originally named themerc
- The only change made to any of the files themselves was to add a rootCommand
- The Openbox folder structure for each style was themes/name_of_theme/openbox-3/themerc

Re: bb4win_mod 1.19 - bbStyleMaker compatible :D
I used openbox in my recent Puppylinux partition... BB4win is far better and usefull than bb4nix. I mean... openbox is nearly useless but is cute. by the way... the .cfg files in the style folder OPENBOX from bb4win_mod ... if i rename them to theme in the themes folder of openbox don't load them well... (nameOfTheTheme/theme) are they openbox styles or I have to modify them in some way? I mean the .CFGs files in the styles\openbox folder from bb4win
