Create and edit menus with RisohEditor

To Top Page | Previous Page | Next Page

Let's create menu data with the RisohEditor.

In the empty RisohEditor, select "Add" → "Add Menu" from the "Edit" menu.

The "Add Resource" dialog is displayed. Here, enter "1" (one) in "Resource name" and click the "OK" button.

Japanese menu data "RT_MENU (4)" → "1" → "Japanese (Japan) (1041)" has been added to the tree view. It looks like this:

LANGUAGE LANG_JAPANESE, SUBLANG_DEFAULT

1 MENU
{
    POPUP "ファイル(&F)"
    {
        MENUITEM "終了(&X)\tAlt+F4", 100
    }
}

(Translation Note: "ファイル" means "File". And "終了" means "Exit")

Let's edit the source text. Edit as follows.

LANGUAGE LANG_JAPANESE, SUBLANG_DEFAULT

1 MENU
{
    POPUP "ちょっとしたよくあるテスト(&F)"
    {
        MENUITEM "これは終了だが、敗北ではない(&X)\tAlt+F4", 100
    }
}

(Translation Note: "ちょっとしたよくあるテスト" means "A little common test". And "これは終了だが、敗北ではない" means "This is over, but not defeated")

When you're done, click the "Compile" button. The edited contents are accepted.

You can test the menu by pressing the "Test" button ().

To end the test, press the close button on the Test Menu window.

Next, double-click "Japanese (Japan) (1041)" in the tree view. The "Edit Menu Resource" dialog will be displayed. This dialog allows you to edit more easily than the source text.

I will briefly explain how to use this dialog.

• The "Add..." button is a button that adds a new menu item.
• The "Up" and "Down" buttons can change the order of existing menu items.
• The "Left" and "Right" buttons can change the depth of existing menu items.
• The "Change..." button is used to change the contents of the selected menu item.
• The "Delete" button is used to delete the selected menu item.
• Press the "OK" button to confirm the menu data. Click the "Cancel" button to discard the changes.

After editing the menu as appropriate, click "OK" and export to a suitable location with the name "mymenu.rc".
