Able to enter a number in Menu Item

[Stefan Mayer]

Hi,

I would like to add to my menu an item in which the user can enter a number. Does anyone know how to achieve this?
Currently i use an NTMenuItem() object:


That's the mockup where i want to have the new Number-Enter menu item.



Thx !!

Hello Stefan,

Thank you for your post.

I am not aware of a way to add a menu item that would allow the user to input a number. Instead, you could create a menu item that opens a window containing a NumericTextBox that they could enter the number into:

This thread will remain open for any other members of the forum community to chime in with their ideas as well.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Thx Emily !
yes, lets keep it open for the community. I know it is possible because i have seen it in some Indicators, so there must be a way, which most likely is a WPF.
