Description Svata Dedic 2002-07-24 11:00:41 UTC

It seems not possible to add separators to
explorer Menu views. It would be sufficient to
have a "tag node" that would be turned into a
Separator by the MenuView.Menu class, or if the
class constructed a separator iff
MenuView.Menu.createMenuItem() returned null
(currently null return values are not permitted) -
a subclass could insert separator into the
JPopupMenu directly.

Yes, looks reasonable to me. Similar issue is 24304, this one is more
general.

Comment 5 David Simonek 2005-05-02 16:47:09 UTC

Hm, I thought that MenuView is deprecated, but it is not, so this enh is still
valid.

Comment 6 David Simonek 2008-10-16 16:09:37 UTC

No plans for implementing this, perhaps someone from community can come with the patch.
