Bug? [Not a Bug - Intentional] Example Code for MenuItems.AddAll throws error.

[LWGShane]

Error: "String can't be cast to MenuItem"

Code:

FileMenu.MenuItems.AddAll(Array As String("New Project"))

Which example code are you referring to?

Which example code are you referring to?

When you type "Menu.MenuItems.AddAll", the example in the popup:

List.AddAll(Array As String("value1", "value2"))

However, when you actually use "Array As String()" inside the "AddAll" function it says "String can't be cast to MenuItem".

This is not a bug.

MenuBar.Menus returns a regular List.
When you write MenuBar.Menus.AddAll the IDE shows you the documentation of List.AddAll.

There are many advantages for providing access to a List instead of adding methods such as:
MenuBar.AddMenuItem(...)
MenuBar.Remove(...)

The downside is that you do see the documentation of a regular List.

@Erel - Oh alright. Good to know that it's intentional. You can lock this thread.
