[SOLVED] How to Add Items in the Awesome Menu?

I hate to ask, but I've gotta say I've read the manuals extensively, and can't figure out certain things in awesome... I want to purchase a lua programming manual to have around, but in the meantime... I'm hoping one of you guys can throw me a bone here and help me figure out this one thing...
I've added firefox to my awesome menu so now it's like awesome > open terminal > firefox. However, nothing happens when I select firefox, and here's my code:
-- {{{ Menu
-- Create a launcher widget and a main menu
myawesomemenu = {
{ "manual", terminal .. " -e man awesome" },
{ "edit config", editor_cmd .. " " .. awesome.conffile },
{ "restart", awesome.restart },
{ "quit", awesome.quit }
mymainmenu = awful.menu({ items = { { "awesome", myawesomemenu, beautiful.awesome_icon },
{ "open terminal", terminal },
{ "firefox", awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/firefox.png" }
mylauncher = awful.widget.launcher({ image = beautiful.awesome_icon,
menu = mymainmenu })
-- Menubar configuration
menubar.utils.terminal = terminal -- Set the terminal for applications that require it
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

The syntax for adding a menu item to awesome goes like this:
mywebmenu = {
{" Chromium", "chromium-browser", beautiful.chromium_icon},
{" Dropbox", "dropbox", beautiful.dropbox_icon}
or
mysettingsmenu = {
{" WICD", "urxvt -x wicd-curses", beautiful.wicd_icon}
As you can see, the first item in the list is the name of the menu item, the second is the command to be run, and the third is the icon to be displayed. If there's no third field, no icon is displayed.
Your code for adding firefox to your menu will correctly show "firefox" as the menu name being displayed, since that's the first field you added, but will attempt to execute "awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/firefox.png" when you click the menu item, since that's what you provided as the second argument. Since that's not an executable command, nothing happens.
Since the "awful.util..." bit seems to be you trying to get the proper icon for firefox, I suggest adding an element to the list between the two you already have that is just "firefox". This will ensure that when you click on "firefox" in your menu, the command that is run is "firefox", which should launch your browser.

Figured it out.
Tried that bookmark thing earlier too but it didnt react/do anything.
now i tried "edit bookmarks" and somehow managed to get the bookmark option activated. Bookmarks appeared on the left and can now drag items there.

When I want to add items to the bookmarks toolbar, for example: -Zoom toolbar. The zoom Toolbar appears on the bookmarks toolbar, but it shows the favicons aswell the underlined text. I only want the favicons. How to do this, please help!!

I want to add items to the bookmarks toolbar. for example: the Zoom Toolbar addon. This works, but not only the favicons appear on the bookmarks toolbar, aswell as the underlined text. How to avoid this?
I only want the favicons from an addon to appear on the bookmarks toolbar, not with the underlined text. How to do this?
This problem doesn't happen with any other toolbar. And this problem didn't happen with an earlier version of firefox. Please Help!
Thanx, BassMann.

If you only want the favicons and not the names of the bookmarks on the bookmarks toolbar, you can do that with the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4072/ Smart Bookmarks Bar] add-on.

DataGrid - Create at runtime - How to Add Items??

I create a DataGrid at runtime and then and columns to it as need be. How Can I add items with the correct dataField if I don't if I don;t know this till runtime? In other word I'm having trouble constructing the Object to send to AddItem becase the dataField Name needs to be hard coded...
Below does not work for me because if I have more than one column then I can seem to figure out out to create ItemObjFinal dynnamically.
var ItemObjFinal:Object = {ThisNameNeedsToBeDynamic: "text", ThisNameNeedsToBeDynamic: "value" };
I also tried creating an array of Objects like this:
var ItemObjFinal:Object = new Object;
var obj:Object= dgc.dataField;
ItemObjFinal [0] = {(obj.valueOf()): dgc.headerText };
ItemObjFinal [1] = {(obj.valueOf()): dgc.headerText };
=========================================================================================
              ac.addItemAt(dgc, int(ac.length));
              dataGrid_preview.columns = ac.toArray();
              var obj:Object= dgc.dataField;
              var ItemObjFinal:Object = {(obj.valueOf()): dgc.headerText };
              var obj2:Object= dgc.dataField;
              var ItemObjFinal2:Object = {(obj2.valueOf()): dgc.headerText};
              //K Now add it!
              //IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).removeAll();
              IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).addItemAt(ItemObjFinal,0);
             //IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).addItemAt(ItemObjFinal2,1);

Ahh answered my own question:
             ac.addItemAt(dgc, int(ac.length));
              dataGrid_preview.columns = ac.toArray();
              var ItemObjFinal:Object = new Object;
              var ItemObjFinal2:Object = new Object;
              for each(var col:DataGridColumn in ac)
                ItemObjFinal[col.dataField] = col.headerText;
                ItemObjFinal2[col.dataField] = col.headerText;
              ItemObjFinal[dgc.dataField] = dgc.headerText;
              ItemObjFinal2[dgc.dataField] = dgc.headerText;
              //K Now add it!
              if(IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).length > 1)
                  IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).removeItemAt(0);
                  IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).removeItemAt(1);
              IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).addItemAt(ItemObjFinal,0);
              IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).addItemAt(ItemObjFinal2,1);
This code may still need some tweaking as I get an RTE at "IList(dataGrid_preview.dataProvider).removeItemAt(1);"   but at least I'm able to solve my original question. Thanks Alex!

Object array - how to add items?

Hello!
I have little problem, how to add item to array, to get something like this:
Object[][] someObject = {
{"1", "2"},
{"4","5"}
};From this:
Object[][] someObject = {
{"1", "2"}
};? Thanks in advance!

Once you allocate an array like that, you can't
resize it.
Object[][] someObject = {
{"1", "2"}
};creates an array with size [1][2]. You can't makeit
any larger. You can create a new Object[][]
with the new size, copy the elements into the new
array, then add your new objects in the newposition.
or even better use arraylistExcept that he's using this for a JTable, so the best he could do is a Vector. Yuck. :)

How to change the selection background color of the selected item in the popup menu of the choice box ?

How to change the selection background color of the selected item in the popup menu of the choice box ?
By defaut, the selection background color likes "blue", but if I want it to be "yellow" for example, how should I do ?
Thanks

The id is applied by (I think) the skin class of the ChoiceBox. You don't need to define it.
You have to apply the css in an external style sheet. You can apply the external style sheet to any parent of your choice box, or to the scene (the most usual way to do it).
Example:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.ChoiceBox;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class ChoiceBoxTest extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
    primaryStage.setTitle("Example 2");
    final ChoiceBox<String> choiceBox = new ChoiceBox<>();
    List<String> tempResult = new ArrayList<String>();
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
      tempResult.add("Item " + i);
    choiceBox.getItems().setAll(tempResult);
    VBox root = new VBox();
    root.getChildren().add(choiceBox);
    final Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
    scene.getStylesheets().add("choiceBox.css");
    primaryStage.setScene(scene);
    primaryStage.show();
public static void main(String[] args) {
    launch(args);
choiceBox.css:
@CHARSET "UTF-8";
#choice-box-menu-item:focused {
-fx-background-color: yellow ;
#choice-box-menu-item .label {
-fx-text-fill: black ;

Add an item to the Apple menu

I would like to know how to add an item to the Apple menu using OSX Lion, any help would be more than appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Ron

1. You don't need to use Apple Menu Options for this; to add the item, double-click your hard disk's icon in the Finder and then open the System Folder. You can change the contents of the Apple Menu Items folder as if it was any other folder.
2. Open the Preferences folder in the System Folder and drag the item named Apple Menu Options Prefs inside to the desktop. Try opening the control panel again.

How to add spaces at the end of record

Hi Friends,
i am creating a file which contains more than 100 records.
In ABAP i have internal table with on field(135) type c.
some time record have length 120, somtime 130 its vary on each record.
but i would like to add space at the end of each record till 135 length.
Can you please help me how to add speace at the end of record.
regards
Malik

So why did you said that in your first posting? My glass sphere is out for cleaning...
Instead of type c use strings and add spaces until they have the appropriate length.
loop at outtab assigning <pout>.
while strlen( <pout>-val ) < 135.
concatenate <pout>-val `` into <pout>-val.
endwhile.
endloop.
