You can do do something like this from your branding module's layer.xml file:
<filesystem> <folder name="Menu"> <folder name="Admin"> <attr name="position" intvalue="205"/> </folder> </folder> </filesystem> You can also expand the layer.xml file from within NetBeans and see "this layer in context", then right-click an existing menu item and click Go to Declaration to see the position of the other menus items. -- Eirik From: Charles Rivenbark <rivenba...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, January 8, 2024 4:17 PM To: users@netbeans.apache.org Subject: NetBeans Platform Application - Set Position of Menu Within the Menu Bar I am using NetBeans IDE 20 and have a Maven project that has numerous TopComponent windows. I want to set the position on the menu bar where the module menu appears. By default the Admin menu shows at the far left on the menu bar but I want it just past the Edit menu. The TopComponent code is as follows: @ActionID(category = "Admin", id = "org.drsolutions.dro.base.OperatorListTopComponent") @ActionReferences({ @ActionReference(path = "Menu/Admin", position = 200), @ActionReference(path = "Toolbars/Admin", position = 200) }) Is there some way to place the Admin menu the same way menuitems are placed within the menu with a position attribute?
