Any place where you have the HMENU should
work.

any example?

I've tried this , and that didn't work. ObjectARX 2014

then, I 've read this here:

There is no limit on the number of menu items, but items should contain only text.

without source code its hard to say what is wrong. as i know, you have to add bitmaps to menu item in "MFC way", couse ObjectARX can just attach your menu and use it.

so, what about using CMenu::SetMenuItemBitmaps or CMenu::SetMenuItemInfo to your menu items?
