Hi in ProToolkit it should work like this :

create the PushButton

Toolkit
uiCmdCmdId pro_cmdId = NULL; ProMenubarmenuPushbuttonAdd("MDLPRCMenubarMenu", "pbVisitParameters", "MPU StartModelProcessorBtn", "MPU StartModelProcessorHlp", NULL, PRO_B_TRUE, pro_cmdId, g_translation_file); ProCmdDesignate(pro_cmdId, "MPU StartModelProcessorBtn", "MPU StartModelProcessorHlp", "MPU StartModelProcessorDesc", g_translation_file); ProCmdIconSet(pro_cmdId,"modproc.gif");

All lines return a ProError often this one shows you where the failure is.

Don't forget to put the image you want to set to your ressources. Creo only look inside the resources for pictures at :

<application_text_directory>/<language>/resource/

You should lay there 2 Images.

- First one is 16x16 and have naming convention name.png.

- Second one is 32x32 and have naming convention name_large.png

Creo selects automaticly the right size for display inside of Menu's.

alternativ in OTK

Objekt Toolkit
pfcUICommand_ptr cram_start_cmd = wSession->UICreateCommand("CRA_MATERIAL", new MycallbackClass(cram::cram_start)); cram_start_cmd->Designate ("cram_message.txt", "CRA Material selection", "CRA Material selection", "CRA Material selection"); cram_start_cmd->SetIcon("cram_icon.png");

Best regards,

Eike
