[Users] Adding a menu item to an existing Tbar, not working

[Andrew Stewart]

Ah Ok thanks. I will go back to it and attempt to rewrite it using the togglehandler/checkhandler you've suggested. I really appreciate your assistance with this as I was not very familiar with the toolbar/geo.ext action controls obviously but as it is working as intended I will modify my program to meet my needs and repost my code when I figure it out. I do apologize for creating an unnecessary ticket for my issue.

However if I remove the other controls from the menu and leave only the polyline/line then I get the same result, the actions on the toolbar now don't toggle the actions on the menu even though they belong to the same togglegroup/group. So do I have to keep the actions from the toolbar inside the menu also for this to work? Below is my code of the modified example.

Actually no, it is not a bug in GeoExt. Toggle groups do not work
across classes, because buttons and menu items aren't registered to
the same toggle manager.

So you need to handle this at the application level, by defining
toggleHandler and checkHandler functions in the action options and
have them take appropriate action.
