Access path: Application à CommandBars à Item

 1  Description

A CommandBar object represents one individual toolbar of TextMaker.

An individual CommandBar object exists for each toolbar. If you create new toolbars or delete them, the respective CommandBar objects will be created or deleted dynamically.

Note: Toolbars work only in classic mode. They do not work with ribbons.

 2  Access to the object

The individual CommandBar objects can be accessed solely through enumerating the elements of the Application.CommandBars collection. The type of this collection is CommandBars.

Example:

' Show the name of the first toolbar

MsgBox tm.Application.CommandBars.Item(1).Name

 

' The same, but easier, using the default property

MsgBox tm.CommandBars(1)
