Automatically set MenuManager property for controls that are being added to a form containing a BarManager

created 17 years ago

Hello,
My suggestion is to automatically set/populate the MenuManager property when dropping a control on a form that has a single BarManager or RibbonControl. Take for example my current form, a RibbonForm. I drop a ButtonEdit on the form, it would be nice if the editor automatically set the MenuManager to the RibbonControl. Or, an alternative is to use an existing MenuManager if one exists regardless if a MenuManager is set. It falls under the default look and feel mentality, maybe a DefaultBarManager would be the ideal answer? I just want all of my editor's menus to conform to the skin, whatever the solution may be.
