Costumize Overflow Menu

[JoãoASilva]

Hello,

Is there any way to customize de overflow menu in Tool > Customize > Marking Menu?

From this old post it seems like it isn't, but I hope it has since changed...

I'm currently on Inventor 2023.

Thanks!

I'm not sure that it is possible to do it using UI, but using API it is an easy job. 

But this iLogic rule is just a sample HOW TO... You need to implement this functionality to addin and you must keep variable _userInputEvents persistent and you can improve the condition when the linearMenu should be updated.

Sub Main()
    
    _userInputEvents = ThisApplication.CommandManager.UserInputEvents
    AddHandler _userInputEvents.OnLinearMarkingMenu, AddressOf UserInputEvents_OnLinearMarkingMenu

End Sub

Private _userInputEvents As UserInputEvents

Private Sub UserInputEvents_OnLinearMarkingMenu(selectedEntities As ObjectsEnumerator,
                                                selectionDevice As SelectionDeviceEnum,
                                                linearMenu As CommandControls,
                                                additionalInfo As NameValueMap)

    Dim sketchGeneralDimensionCmd As String = "SketchGeneralDimensionCmd"
    Dim sketchCurvatureConstraintCmd As String = "SketchCurvatureWrapperCmd"
    
    If linearMenu.Item(linearMenu.Count).ControlDefinition.InternalName = sketchCurvatureConstraintCmd Then
        linearMenu.AddButton(ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions(sketchGeneralDimensionCmd))
    End If

End Sub
