Hiding item-specific commands in submenus

Add the EEikMenuItemSpecific flag to submenu resource definitions. As a result, the submenu items are displayed in the stylus pop-up menu at the same level as main menu items.

         RESOURCE MENU_PANE r_calendarapiexample_entries_menu_option
    {
    items =
        {
        MENU_ITEM 
            { 
            command = ECalendarAPIexampleOption;
            txt = qtn_options_option; 
            cascade = r_calendarapiexample_entries_menu;
            // ----Add the following line-----
         
          flags = EEikMenuItemSpecific;
         
         //--------------------------------------
            },
        MENU_ITEM 
            { 
            command = ECalendarAPIexampleDeleteAll;
            txt = qtn_options_delet_all;  
            }
        };
    }
RESOURCE MENU_PANE r_calendarapiexample_entries_menu
    {
    items =
        {
         MENU_ITEM { command = ECalendarAPIexampleCmdDelete; txt = qtn_options_delete;}
        };
    }
        

For example, the following illustrations show how the item-specific submenu item ( Delete ) is hidden in the options menu and displayed in the stylus pop-up menu by setting the EEikMenuItemSpecific flag.

Add the EEikMenuItemSpecificListQuery flag to submenu resource definitions. As a result, the submenu items are displayed in a list query dialog box within stylus pop-up menus.

         RESOURCE MENU_PANE r_calendarapiexample_entries_menu_option
    {
    items =
        {
        MENU_ITEM 
            { 
            command = ECalendarAPIexampleOption;
            txt = qtn_options_option; 
            cascade = r_calendarapiexample_entries_menu;
            //----Add the following line----------
         
          flags = EEikMenuItemSpecificListQuery;
         
         //---------------------------------------
            },
        MENU_ITEM 
            { 
            command = ECalendarAPIexampleDeleteAll;
            txt = qtn_options_delet_all;  
            }
        };
    }
        

For example, the following illustration shows how the Delete command is displayed in the list query dialog box under option by setting the EEikMenuItemSpecificListQuery flag.
