I have successfully created both menus and a toolbar. I've added images to both. What I can't figure out is how to put a check mark on a menu. Could someone please give me a very small example of that.
Thanks.

Hi,
There is a Item& Check(bool check) method for this. The usage is menu.Add("Be verbose", THISBACK(ToggleVerboseBuild))
.Check(console.verbosebuild)
 void Ide::ToggleVerboseBuild() {
console.verbosebuild = !console.verbosebuild;
}
This example was taken from ide package.
Regards,
Honza

I'm glad to hear it helped you
Not everything can be in tutorials, they would be too complex then  But it is all in documentation in the ide and also on the web (e.g. Check function is described here). It's just sometimes hard to ask the right questions...
Bye,
Honza

I think there is an example with this. But I noticed that if the checked state defaults to true, it doesn't show it on the initial open of the window. You can uncheck and check, then it shows.
I don't use the check yet in the menus, so I haven't chased down what the problem might be.

You can of course do Bar::Item& foo=bar.Add("Foo", THISBACK(DooFoo));
foo.Help(...);
foo.Tip(...);
foo.Text(...);
foo.Image(...);
foo.Check(...);
foo.Enable(...);
foo.Key(...);
But it's ugly and it requires much more typing The chaining concept is one of the big advantages of U++.
BTW: Another great source of information is reference assembly. Most of the packages there covers one topic only, but into greater detail then tutorials.

Yes, it is in Reference/Menu.
