在运行时启用的菜单条项目

Question

My menu Strip is like below.
while loading time i want to make true for enable and visible property. Below is my code but that is not taking the preview and print option under the print option.

foreach (ToolStripMenuItem i in menuStrip.Items)
{                   
    for (int x = 0; x <= i.DropDownItems.Count-1; x++)
    {
        i.DropDownItems[x].Visible = true;
        i.DropDownItems[x].Enabled = true;
    }
    i.Available = true;
    i.Visible = true;
    i.Enabled = true;
}

Answer 1

I'd suggest using some Extension Methods to:

• Get all descendants (children, children of children, ...) fo a MenuStrip , ToolStrip or ContextMenuStrip or StatusStrip
• Get all descendants of an item
• Get an item and all of its descendants

Descendants Extension Methods

The following extension methods will work for a MenuStrip , ToolStrip , ContextMenuStrip or StatusStrip :

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public static class ToolStripExtensions
{
    public static IEnumerable<ToolStripItem> Descendants(this ToolStrip toolStrip)
    {
        return toolStrip.Items.Flatten();
    }
    public static IEnumerable<ToolStripItem> Descendants(this ToolStripDropDownItem item)
    {
        return item.DropDownItems.Flatten();
    }
    public static IEnumerable<ToolStripItem> DescendantsAndSelf (this ToolStripDropDownItem item)
    {
        return (new[] { item }).Concat(item.DropDownItems.Flatten());
    }
    private static IEnumerable<ToolStripItem> Flatten(this ToolStripItemCollection items)
    {
        foreach (ToolStripItem i in items)
        {
            yield return i;
            if (i is ToolStripDropDownItem)
                foreach (ToolStripItem s in ((ToolStripDropDownItem)i).DropDownItems.Flatten())
                    yield return s;
        }
    }
}

Example

• Disable all descendants of a specific item:

   fileToolStripMenuItem.Descendants().ToList().ForEach(x => { x.Enabled = false; });

• Disable all descendants of the menu strip:

   menuStrip1.Descendants().ToList().ForEach(x => { x.Enabled = false; });
