Loop through Toolbar items

Suite and Optimus Suite 5

Hi,



I am currently trying to loop through the items in the toolbar and set their properties to hidden, I then wish to show the specific items that I need.



As the items will often change I would like a quick way to either hide all or a call to retrieve all child nodes



e.g.



children = menu_a.item(‘File’).getChildId(); //would return array(save, print, exit)

hide_all = menu_a.hideItems(children);



What is the easiest solution?



Also, I suspect it would be worth while having a showItems() function in addition to the showItem.



Thanks

Actually such api already exists

menu.showButtons(id_list);
menu.hideButtons(id_list);

To get sub items you can use

var panel=menu.getPanel(id); //id - id of top level item
panel.items - array of all child menu items
