How to add a separator in AE menu?

[dheeraj_c]

Hi,

    AE SDK provides methods to insert Menu commands/items but is there a way to add separator in AE menu like the image shown below?

Thanks,

Dheeraj.

Hi Dheeraj,

Nope, sorry that isn't exposed through the API.  It would probably be in AEGP_CommandSuite if it were.

Feel free to submit a feature request: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish

Thanks for replying Zac. I submitted a feature request. I want to know if there is a way to specify the position in which the separator has to be shown.

You can add an item with a string of "-" to get a menu separator, just

as you would with the regular Mac/Win menu APIs.

Not sure if that's the "official" way, but it works.

You're right - Thanks for jumping in Bob!  I'll add this to the SDK documentation so it won't be forgotten.

Thanks Bob for sharing your knowledge. I'm able to add a separator but how can I specify the position where the separator has to be shown? Is there a way to specify?

Thanks,

Dheeraj.
