Question

H all,

I created a menu strip in Winform not dynamically. And it’s all in invisible, when the user is have rights only it visible. My one of username have full rights,. For this I wrote the below code,..

private void menuActive(MenuStrip menus)
{
     foreach (ToolStripMenuItem menu in menus.Items)
     {
          menu.Visible = true;               
          for (int i = 0; i < menu.DropDown.Items.Count; i++)
          {
               menu.DropDown.Items[i].Visible = true;                        
          }
     }
}

But this is visible the menuItem and child menuItem,. my few childItem menu have more childItem. That means, In TsmMaster and tsmregisterMaster are visible but I can’t access the registerMasters Childs(ClassMaster, division Master….)

See the below image,..

Please give your suggestion.

Try it with recursion:

private void ActivateMenus(ToolStripItemCollection items)
{
    foreach (ToolStripMenuItem item in items)
    {
        item.Visible = true;    
        ActivateMenus(item.DropDown.Items);
    }
}
