Menu Templates

• Feb 02, 2023

You can replace the look and feel of the view elements of the Menu extension using templates. You can create templates for various element types: the item text, the item content, and the item submenu. An element’s template can be defined at the extension level and the item level at the same time. In this case, the item-level template has priority.

The table below lists the members used to create templates.

	Item level templates	Extension level templates
Item text template	MVCxMenuItem.SetTextTemplateContent	MenuSettingsBase.SetItemTextTemplateContent
Item template	MVCxMenuItem.SetTemplateContent	MenuSettingsBase.SetItemTemplateContent
Submenu template	MVCxMenuItem.SetSubMenuTemplateContent	MenuSettingsBase.SetSubMenuTemplateContent

Note

A menu template cannot contain another menu extension.
