System.int AddMenu( 
&   System.int DocType,
&   System.String^ Menu,

) 

Parameters

DocType

Document type to add the menu item as defined by swDocumentTypes_e

Menu

Name of menu item to add, including any parent menu names, e.g., subMenuString@menuString

Position

Specifies the position where to add the new menu item; 0 = first position and 1 = end of the parent menu (see Remarks)

Return Value

1 if menu item is added successfully added or 0 if adding the menu item failed

If the name of a parent menu is not specified in Menu, then:

• the menu item appears on the Tools menu below the XPress products menu item.
• Position is ignored.

Menus items are automatically created at the end of the parent menu when using ISldWorks::AddMenuItem5. Therefore, if your menu structure is created using sequential calls to SldWorks::AddMenuItem5, then all the menu items are positioned based on their order of creation.

This method is only required when a menu needs to be placed into an existing menu at a specific position.
