    Is it possible to nest popup buttons on context menu?

    Can I create popup button control underneath another poup button control?

     

    I can do this with .net controls, but I can't seem to get this to work with Inventor.  Whenever I try to add a commandbar to another commandbar.Controls I get an Invalid Parameter error.

    Here is what I am referring to. I would like to be able to add a menu below a menu.

    Hi,

     

    In theory, I think  LinearMenu.AddButtonPopup or  LinearMenu.AddPopup should work, however they both failed at my side. I am digging if I could figure it out.

    In case anyone has this question, I received word via ADN that this is not possible.
