Greetings of the Day -

I'm trying to make a custom menubar with an image, like this one:

http://s350.photobucket.com/albums/q416/geetk/?action=view&current=buzzimage.jpg

can anyone describe how I would do it?

I just don't know how to use the image as an item on a menubar

Thanks,
Geet Kartikeya

Hello Geet,

This is how you do it.
I guess the code is self explanatory.

Actionscript :

[Bindable]
[Embed("assets/images/disk.png")]
public var saveIcon:Class;

[Bindable]
[Embed("assets/images/printer.png")]
public var printIcon:Class;

mxml :

<mx:XML id="menuBarCollection" format="e4x">
<root>
<menuitem label="Save" icon="saveIcon"></menuitem>
<menuitem label="Print" icon="printIcon"></menuitem>
</root>
</mx:XML>

<mx:MenuBar id="XYZ"
itemClick="CallCorrespondingToolbar(event)"
labelField="@label"
iconField="@icon"
dataProvider="{menuBarCollection}"
showRoot="false" />

Try using PopUpButton for the Images
