MenuHandler for Python

mikamar

Hello Matthias

Looks like the MenuHandler code is being used quite often.
Can we get the equivalent of the Ruby code below for Python?

Thanks!

class MenuHandler < RBA::Action
def initialize( t, k, i, &action )
self.title = t
self.shortcut = k
self.icon = i
@action = action
end
def triggered
@action.call( self )
end
private
@action
end

menu.insert_item("@toolbar.end", "menu_item3", $menu_handler_transparent)
menu.insert_item("tools_menu.end", "menu_item3", $menu_handler_transparent)

Hi Mikamar,

Since some time now, the Action class does not need to be subclassed to implement a menu function. It's sufficient to use the "on_triggered" callback:

def handler_func():
  pya.MessageBox.info("Info", "Menu action called!", pya.MessageBox.Ok)

menu_handler = pya.Action()
menu_handler.title = "My toolbar function"
menu_handler.on_triggered = handler_func

menu = pya.Application.instance().main_window().menu()
menu.insert_item("@toolbar.end", "menu_item3", menu_handler)
menu.insert_item("tools_menu.end", "menu_item3", menu_handler)
