[SailfishDevel] Dynamically populate a ContextMenu

[Tigre-Bleu]

Repeater is a nice & clean solution. 

I'll go with that. 

Thanks

Hi, 



simply assign id to one of the static items, e.g. firstStatic, and then use firstStatic.parent instead of menu._contentColumn as parent for the dynamic items -- this way you do not rely on implementation details: 



menu: ContextMenu { 

id: menu 

MenuItem { id: firstStatic; text: "Static 1" } 

MenuItem { text: "Static 2" } 

} 



Component.onCompleted: { 

console.debug("Populating menu") 

for (var i=0; i< 4 ; i++){ 

var newMenuItem = menuItemComp.createObject(firstStatic.parent, 

{"text" : "Dynamic" + i}) 

} 

} 



Event better consider using Repeater and provide the list of dynamic items as item model[1] (assiging a number as a model gives exactly the same result as in your original example): 



ApplicationWindow { 

initialPage: Page { 

ComboBox { 

width: parent.width 

label: "Menu" 



menu: ContextMenu { 

id: menu 

MenuItem { text: "Static 1" } 

MenuItem { text: "Static 2" } 

Repeater { 

model: 4 

MenuItem { text: "Dynamic " + index } 

} 

} 

} 

} 

} 





BR, 

Martin
