Hi All,
I want to conditionally disable some items of my application menu
bar for example "Format", "Insert" etc, so that user can not click
on it and can not see its submenu.
When i do following:
[[[NSApp mainMenu] itemWithTitle:@"Insert"] setEnabled:NO];
Menu item "Insert" in menu bar still appears enabled but all items
in its submenu get disabled. Basically my purpose is solved as user
can not select any of sub menu items
but i want "Insert" itself to be disabled so that user can not even
see its submenu.
Is it possible in Mac (Windows it can be done)?
If yes, then How can i do so.
Why?
It is explicitly against the Apple Human Interface Guidelines to
prevent a user from seeing submenus, even if all of the items in the
menu are disabled. Why go against it?
And I don't believe it can be done for menu bar items. It would look
terrible, too.
