Parameters

DocType

Document type to which to add the context-sensitive menu icon

SelectType

Selection type to which to add the context-sensitive menu icon

HintString

Text displayed in the SolidWorks status bar when the user moves the mouse over the icon

CallbackFcnAndModule

Function called when user clicks the context-sensitive menu icon (see Remarks)

CustomNames

Names of custom feature types (see Remarks)

BitmapFilePath

Path and filename of the bitmap for the context-sensitive menu icon

Return Value

This method is supported in C++ applications only, and it only works for C++ applications implemented as DLLs, not as EXEs. Any function exposed as a callback from an context-sensitive menu icon must be declared as an EXPORT or included in your .def file.

The CallbackFcnAndModule argument specifies which function to call when the shortcut menu icon is clicked by the user. The syntax is as follows:

"dllname@function" where:

CustomNames is semi-colon separated list of the names of the custom feature types. This argument is applicable only if SelectType is a custom feature type (like swSelATTRIBUTES); in the case of swSelATTRIBUTES, set this field to the name of the attribute definition.
