About the Toolbar Item Object Type


The Toolbar Item object type associates a Command object definition (identified by name as a property in the Command property) with a Toolbar object definition (the parent of the Toolbar Item). This association places a toolbar icon, whose bitmap image, invoke method, and target are specified in the Command object definition, on the specified toolbar in a given location (relative to the other toolbar icons on that toolbar). The following properties are significant in a Toolbar Item object definition:

  • Command. Name of the Command object definition that is to provide the bitmap, method, and target for the toolbar item. One or more hyphens can be specified instead of the name of a Command object to tell the system to insert a separator there between icons.
  • HTML Type. Identifies the type of control to be displayed in the toolbar in the browser. Options include ComboBox, Button, Edit, Label, Hyperlink, MiniButton, and Timer.
  • Name. Name of the toolbar item. Used internally in Siebel Tools only. This needs to be unique within the scope of a toolbar.
  • Position. Sequence of the values determines the order of toolbar items. Also determines parent-child relationships. For example a Toolbar item with a Position value of 150 is a parent to Toolbar items with Position values of 150.10, 150.20, and so on. Parent Toolbar items must be active for child Toolbar Items to appear.
