## Detailed Description

A class to create, modify and delete menus that appear on Mac OS X in the menu bar at the top of the screen.

On other than Mac OS X platforms, Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar is a synonym of class Fl_Menu_Bar.
To use this class, just replace Fl_Menu_Bar by Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar, and, on the Mac platform, a system menu at the top of the screen will be available. This menu will match an array of Fl_Menu_Item's exactly as with standard FLTK menus.

Changes to the menu state are immediately visible in the menubar when they are made using member functions of the Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar class. Other changes (e.g., by a call to Fl_Menu_Item::set()) should be followed by a call to Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::update() to be visible in the menubar across all platforms.

A few FLTK features are not supported by the Mac System menu:

- no symbolic labels
- no embossed labels
- no font sizes

You can configure a callback for the 'About' menu item to invoke your own code with fl_mac_set_about().

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar()

Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar | ( | int | x,
|  | int | y,
|  | int | w,
|  | int | h,
|  | const char * | l = `0`
| ) |  |

The constructor.

On Mac OS X, all arguments are unused. On other platforms they are used as by Fl_Menu_Bar::Fl_Menu_Bar().

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ add() [1/3]

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::add | ( | const char * | label,
|  | const char * | shortcut,
|  | Fl_Callback * | cb,
|  | void * | user_data = `0`,
|  | int | flags = `0`
| ) |  |
| inline

Adds a new menu item.

See also
  Fl_Menu_::add(const char* label, int shortcut, Fl_Callback*, void *user_data=0, int flags=0)

## ◆ add() [2/3]

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::add | ( | const char * | label,
|  | int | shortcut,
|  | Fl_Callback * | cb,
|  | void * | user_data = `0`,
|  | int | flags = `0`
| ) |  |

Add a new menu item to the system menu bar.

Parameters

  label | - new menu item's label
  shortcut | - new menu item's integer shortcut (can be 0 for none, or e.g. FL_ALT+'x')
  cb | - callback to be invoked when item selected (can be 0 for none, in which case the menubar's callback() can be used instead)
  user_data | - argument to the callback
  flags | - item's flags, e.g. FL_MENU_TOGGLE, etc.

Returns
  the index into the menu() array, where the entry was added

See also
  Fl_Menu_::add(const char* label, int shortcut, Fl_Callback *cb, void *user_data, int flags)

## ◆ add() [3/3]

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::add | ( | const char * | str | ) |

Forms-compatible procedure to add items to the system menu bar.

Returns
  the index into the menu() array, where the entry was added

See also
  Fl_Menu_::add(const char* str)

## ◆ clear()

void Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::clear | ( |  | ) |

Set the Fl_Menu_Item array pointer to null, indicating a zero-length menu.

See also
  Fl_Menu_::clear()

## ◆ clear_submenu()

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::clear_submenu | ( | int | index | ) |

Clears the specified submenu pointed to by index of all menu items.

See also
  Fl_Menu_::clear_submenu(int index)

## ◆ draw()

void Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::draw | ( |  | ) |
| protectedvirtual

Draws the widget.

Never call this function directly. FLTK will schedule redrawing whenever needed. If your widget must be redrawn as soon as possible, call redraw() instead.

Override this function to draw your own widgets.

If you ever need to call another widget's draw method from within your own draw() method, e.g. for an embedded scrollbar, you can do it (because draw() is virtual) like this:

Fl_Widget *s = &scroll; // scroll is an embedded Fl_Scrollbar
s->draw(); // calls Fl_Scrollbar::draw()
Fl_Widget
Fl_Widget is the base class for all widgets in FLTK.
Definition: Fl_Widget.H:101

Reimplemented from Fl_Menu_Bar.

## ◆ insert() [1/2]

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::insert | ( | int | index,
|  | const char * | label,
|  | const char * | shortcut,
|  | Fl_Callback * | cb,
|  | void * | user_data = `0`,
|  | int | flags = `0`
| ) |  |
| inline

Insert a new menu item.

See also
  Fl_Menu_::insert(int index, const char* label, const char* shortcut, Fl_Callback *cb, void *user_data=0, int flags=0)

## ◆ insert() [2/2]

int Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::insert | ( | int | index,
|  | const char * | label,
|  | int | shortcut,
|  | Fl_Callback * | cb,
|  | void * | user_data = `0`,
|  | int | flags = `0`
