Programatically Add New Menu Items To Menu Item Pygobject?

I had this set up in wxPython, but now I'm rewriting it for GTK3/PyGObject, and I'm kind of lost here. Basically, my code scans through a directory, and adds the names of files to

Solution 1:

What you're looking for is append(). Also, the common hierarchy is:

• GtkMenuBar
  • GtkMenuItem
    • GtkMenu
      • GtkMenuItem
      • GtkImageMenuItem
      • GtkCheckMenuItem
      • GtkRadioMenuItem
      • GtkSeparatorMenuItem

You can find a full example here:

The relevant part of the code is:

    content = [
        'Path to file 1',
        'Path to file 2',
        'Path to file 3',
        'Path to file 4',
    ]

    # Create menu
    menu = Gtk.MenuItem(label='My Menu {}'.format(num))
    menu.set_submenu(Gtk.Menu())

    for p in content:
        menu.get_submenu().append(Gtk.MenuItem(label=p))

    self.menubar.append(menu)
    menu.show_all()
