create popup menu with button clik

Do you mean java (j-link) ?

Hi Sangavi,

A couple of quick questions

• What version of Creo are you using?
• What API are you using?
• By "popup" - do you mean a "PopupMenu" as in what happens when you "right click" somewhere? or do you mean just a "dialog box" with a button?

If you are looking for an actual "Dialog" box - I would highly recommend using Creo's "UI Editor" to help create your dialog. It is quick and easy to create a dialog with the layout you want, and it will even auto-generate C++ code for you.

On the other hand... if you are using ProToolkit, and only need a dialog box with some "standard" buttons, then ProUIMessageDialogDisplay should do the trick.

"Standard buttons" include:

typedef enum pro_ui_message_button {   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_ABORT = 0, /* Abort from the appln */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_RETRY = 1, /* Retry the step */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_IGNORE = 2, /* Ignore the event */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_CONFIRM = 3, /* Confirm the event */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_YES = 4, /* confirm the event */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_NO = 5, /* disagree */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_OK = 6, /* acknowldge */   PRO_UI_MESSAGE_CANCEL = 7 /* disacknowledge */ }

Some example code (NOTE: I haven't tested this - so hopefully it works haha):

ProError hello_world {   ProError err = PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;   ProUIMessageType message_type = PROUIMESSAGE_INFO;   ProUIMessageButton *buttons;   ProUIMessageButton ok_button = PRO_UI_MESSAGE_OK;   ProUIMessageButton cancel_button = PRO_UI_MESSAGE_CANCEL;   err = ProArrayAlloc(0, sizeof(ProUIMessageButton), 1, (ProArray*)&buttons);   err = ProArrayObjectAdd((ProArray*)&buttons, -1, 1, &ok_button);   err = ProArrayObjectAdd((ProArray*)&buttons, -1, 1, &cancel_button);   ProUIMessageButton user_picked_this_one = PRO_UI_MESSAGE_CANCEL; // set an initial value just incase   err = ProUIMessageDialogDisplay(message_type, L"Hello World", L"Hello, World!\nThis is a popup.", buttons, ok_button, &user_picked_this_one);   if (err == PRO_TK_NO_ERROR && user_picked_this_one == PRO_UI_MESSAGE_OK) {     return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR; // hooray! ^_^   }   return PRO_TK_USER_ABORT; }

"pfcSession::UIShowMessageDialog" is the OTK (C++) equivalent.

Let me know if this works for you, and feel free to PM me if you have more questions.

Thanks,
