What's wrong with the TrayItem's event?

Anonymous — Thu, 07 Jul 2005 00:55:40 GMT

There happens nothing when I click on the trayitem.
[CommandMethod("Test")]
static public void test()
{
TrayItem item=acadApp.StatusBar.TrayItems[0];
item.MouseDown+=new StatusBarMouseDownEventHandler(item_MouseDown);
}
private static void item_MouseDown(object sender, StatusBarMouseDownEventArgs e)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("Tray Item Clicked");
}

You can only sink the events for the tray items that you created:

public class TestStatusBarPane
{
///

[CommandMethod("PANETEST")]
public void DoIt()
{

Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Application
Statusbar \n");
StatusBar sb = Application.StatusBar;

// add a new pane
Pane newPane = new Pane();
newPane.Text = "Hello";
newPane.ToolTipText = "Hello Tip";
newPane.Visible = true;
newPane.MinimumWidth = 40;
newPane.Style = PaneStyles.Normal;

newPane.MouseDown += new
StatusBarMouseDownEventHandler(paneMouseDown);

sb.Panes.Add(newPane);

PaneCollection panes = sb.Panes;
foreach (Pane p in panes)
{
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Pane
-- {0}\n", p.Text);
}

Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Document
Statusbar \n");
sb = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.StatusBar;
panes = sb.Panes;
foreach (Pane p in panes)
{
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Pane
-- {0}\n", p.Text);

}

}
static void paneMouseDown(Object o, StatusBarMouseDownEventArgs e)
{
Pane p = (Pane) o;
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Pane
on Click-- {0} {1}\n", p.Text, e.Button);
}

static void trayMouseDown(Object o, StatusBarMouseDownEventArgs e)
{
TrayItem ti = (TrayItem) o;
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Tray
on Click-- {0} {1}\n", ti.ToolTipText, e.Button);
ti.CloseBubbleWindows();
}

static void bubbleClosed(Object o,
TrayItemBubbleWindowClosedEventArgs e)
{
TrayItemBubbleWindow bubble = (TrayItemBubbleWindow) o;
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Bubble
'{0}' closed on Click -- {1}\n", bubble.Title, e.CloseReason);

}

public class TestStatusBarTray
{
static TrayItem oneNewTi = null;
///

[CommandMethod("TRAYTEST")]
public void DoIt()
{

Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Status
Bar Tray Item test \n");
StatusBar sb = Application.StatusBar;

TrayItemCollection tis = sb.TrayItems;
TrayItem oneTi = null;
foreach (TrayItem ti in tis)
{
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor.WriteMessage("Tray
-- {0}\n", ti.ToolTipText);
oneTi = ti;
}

if (oneTi != null && oneNewTi == null)
{
oneNewTi = new TrayItem();
oneNewTi.Visible = true;
oneNewTi.Icon = oneTi.Icon;
oneNewTi.ToolTipText = "copy of " + oneTi.ToolTipText;
tis.Add(oneNewTi);

oneNewTi.MouseDown += new
StatusBarMouseDownEventHandler(trayMouseDown);
}

TrayItemBubbleWindow bubble = new TrayItemBubbleWindow();
bubble.Text = "Bubble Text";
bubble.Title = "Bubble Title";
bubble.HyperLink = "http://google.com";
bubble.HyperText = "Cool site";
oneNewTi.ShowBubbleWindow(bubble);
bubble.Closed += new
TrayItemBubbleWindowClosedEventHandler(bubbleClosed);

}
}
}

Albert,

Excellent example, thanks. Having played with this for a few minutes,
I'm really intrigued by the Popup pane style. It looks as though it's
meant to attach a menu item to. Any chance you could make a simple
example showing a menu popup and a click handler on a menu item? (or
would the menu events handle the click?)

Something like a menu with "Say Hello" and an event handler of MsgBox
("Hello world")? I can run with it from there.

Thanks in advance for your help, and thanks for everything you do here
for us,
