Add_button_group method
This method is used to add a list of buttons to the toolbar. The buttons are defined in a table of type
TTB_BUTTON
, and it can be filled witha button definitions using method
fill_buttons_data_table
of the
cl_gui_toolbar
class. The button group is added to the toolbar using method
add_button_group
of the toolbar object.
* 1. Declare a table for buttons
DATA: gi_button_group TYPE ttb_button.
* 2. Create buttons in button table
CALL METHOD cl_gui_toolbar=>fill_buttons_data_table

.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_toolbar=>fill_buttons_data_table..... add more buttons to the table
*3. Add button group to toolbar
CALL METHOD go_toolbar->add_button_group
EXPORTING data_table = gi_button_group.
Set_button state method
Used to change the state of individual buttons at runtime. If the button should be removed, use the
delete_button
method.
CALL METHOD go_toolbar->set_button_state
EXPORTING
* ENABLED = 'X'

Advanced example
The toolbar in this example contains an
Exit
button, two buttons that enables/and disables a
Print
button, and a
Menu
button with a context menu.
The Disable/Enable buttons are of type
Pushbutton group
which makes them act together, so when one of the buttons are selected (Down) the other is deselected (Up).
Note that the context menu for the Menu button, must be created as a GUI status. You can create an empty GUI sttaus of type context, and then manually add menus. The context menu instance is created with type reference to class
cl_ctmenu
.
Steps:
- Create a screen and add a custom container named TOOLBAR_CONTAINER
- Create a GUI status of type Context and name it TOOLBAR. Note that you can not add any buttons to the GUI sttaus at design time.
The screen:
In this screen shot the
Disable
button is activated which makes the
Print
button disabled:
This screenshot shows the context menu and sub menu:
