Kevin,   I realized that I forgot to comment one area, and left some unused stuff in the code. Here is an updated version: Hi Robert, Hope you can help I am sure this is an easy fix again. I have been playing with the menu's, rearranging and adding sub menu's etc.  I have managed to construct the menus as I would like them however the URL link is not working (I want some of the menu options to open external pages).  At the moment the default message box is opening rather than the links to the external sites (i.e. BBC and Sky). I have provided my code below.  Any idea where I am going wrong? //Code Added    [Bindable]    public var menuBarCollection:XMLListCollection;       private var menubarXML:XMLList =     <>      <menuitem label="Document Links" data="top">       <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-1" data="1-1">        <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-1-1" groupName="one" data="1-1-1"/>        <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-1-2" groupName="one" data="1-1-2"/>       </menuitem>       <menuitem type="separator"/>       <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-2" data="1-2">        <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-2-1" groupName="two" data="1-2-1"/>        <menuitem label="MenuItem 1-2-2" groupName="two" data="1-2-2"/>       </menuitem>      </menuitem>      <menuitem label="Other Links" data="top">       <menuitem label="BBC Site" data="2-1"/>       <menuitem type="separator"/>       <menuitem label="Sky Site" data="2-2"/>      </menuitem>     </>; //End Code Added //Code Added    // Event handler for the MenuBar control's itemClick event.    private function menuHandler(event:MenuEvent):void  {     // Don't open the Alert for a menu bar item that     // opens a popup submenu.     if (event.item.@data != "top") {      //If you want to be able to do something unique when a menu      //item is clicked than you need code like this:      switch( event.item.@data ){       case "2-1":        //doSomething();        navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.bbc.co.uk/"));        break;       case "2-2":        //doSomethingElse();        navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.sky.com/"));        break;       default:        Alert.show("Label: " + event.item.@label + "\n" +         "Data: " + event.item.@data, "Clicked menu item");        break;      }     }    } //End Code Added ...

Hi Robert This is exactly what I was after, sincere thanks for your help with this. Regards, Kevin ... View more

Hi Robert, No offence taken at all.  Flex is new to me so you ar exactly right.  I am currently starting the Flex in a week course hosted by Adobe, having just finished the Build a flex app in a day course.  This was an excellent course that has shown me my way around the the Flash Builder IDE - but your right I need to look further into fundamentals.  I am doing a combination of learning the fundamentals of the Flex SDK while also finding my way around the ArcGIS Flex API.  I'm definately getting there and have learnt a lot recently, but clearly a long way to go! Any way thanks for your help, I'll take a look at your code now. regards, Kevin ... View more

Hi Robert, My modified code is attached. I have added comments of Kevin** where I have added the new code - hopefully this helps? I have only changed HeaderControllerWidget.mxml - I have not changed HeaderControllerWidget.xml I notice I am getting a parse error at line 301 (just befor my script) but I can not resolve this. Thanks in advance for the help, Kevin ... View more

Thanks Robert. I was hoping to implement that looked a little less out of box which was why I was going to attempt to use the MenuBar component.  This will certainly help in the short term though so thanks very much! ... View more

Just though that I would add that I had the same issues with 3D view not working as those identified above.  I too have the Intel HD Graphics integrated system. I have recently downloaded additional drivers as identified by running the test at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Default.aspx The 3D view now works with the updated drivers - however the 3D view is very very slow.  not sure if this is an issue with the setup machine I have or something else but thought I would share my experience with others. ...

I don't have a standalone version of Python 2.6 installed on my machine - are you saying I need both the version shipped with ArcGIS v10 and a separate install of python? i.e. would I need to install version 2.6.6 here (2.6.5 is apparently an unstable version: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/) ...

Still no luck. Is there anything other than referencing the file paths that I should do? ... View more
