Question on CL_GUI_SIMPLE_TREE

Former Member — Sun, 05 Nov 2006 04:25:10 GMT

Instead of selecting the node in a tree control and forcing the user to select a push button or button from the application tool bar, I would like the user to right-click on the node and then select the option required.

The class CL_GUI_SIMPLE_TREE does provide the ability to register the right-click event, but what method is used to register the possible options. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Vince

There are always two events required for context menus:

CL_GUI_SIMPLE_TREE

- <b>NODE_CONTEXT_MENU_REQUEST</b> (Context Menu Request for a Node)

- <b>NODE_CONTEXT_MENU_SELECT</b> (Context Menu Entry Selected)

Note the the context menu can be requested on the nodes only (and not the items)

CL_GUI_ALV_GRID

- CONTEXT_MENU_REQUEST

- CONTEXT_MENU_SELECTED

The names of the corresponding methods differ from control to control.

Regards

Uwe
