This page describes the implementation of the main menus and the toolbox in Blender. Both menu systems have in common that they are build using the Blender button widgets and ui blocks.
The main menu system is created in the file header_buttons.c.
The menu bar is created in the routine void info_buttons() which
creates the main menu bar items as part of the info buttons usually located
at the top of the main window of Blender.
For example, this is how the file menu item is created inside the void
info_buttons() routine:
but=uiDefBut(block, BLOCK, B_NOP, "File", xco, 3, 40, 15,
NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 0, 0, "");
but->blockfunc= info_filemenu;
A button of BLOCK type is created with the info_filemenu
block routine. This routine creates the file menu by creating a new ui block
with menu items as buttons:
uiBlock *info_filemenu()
{
uiBlock *block;
int xco=0;
block= uiNewBlock(&curarea->uiblocks, "filemenu", UI_EMBOSSP,
UI_HELV, 0x808080, curarea->headwin);
block->func= do_info_filemenu;
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "New|Ctrl X", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL,
0.0, 0.0, 1, 0, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Open|F1", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL, 0.0,
0.0, 1, 1, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Reopen Last|Ctrl O", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19,
NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 1, 2, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Append|Shift F1", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL,
0.0, 0.0, 1, 3, "");
uiDefBut(block, SEPR, 0, "", 0, xco-=6, 160, 6, NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 0,
0, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save As|F2", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL,
0.0, 0.0, 1, 4, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save|Ctrl W", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL,
0.0, 0.0, 1, 5, "");
uiDefBut(block, SEPR, 0, "", 0, xco-=6, 160, 6, NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 0,
0, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save Image|F3", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL,
0.0, 0.0, 1, 6, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save VRML|Ctrl F2", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19,
NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 1, 7, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save DXF|Shift F2", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19,
NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 1, 8, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Save VideoScape|Alt W", 0, xco-=20, 160,
19, NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 1, 9, "");
uiDefBut(block, SEPR, 0, "", 0, xco-=6, 160, 6, NULL, 0.0, 0.0, 1,
0, "");
uiDefBut(block, BUTM, 1, "Quit | Q", 0, xco-=20, 160, 19, NULL, 0.0,
0.0, 1, 10, "");
block->direction= UI_DOWN;
return block;
