MenuItem::MdiList Property
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the menu item will be populated with a list of the Multiple Document Interface (MDI) child windows that are displayed within the associated form.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
Property Value
Type: System::Booleantrue if a list of the MDI child windows is displayed in this menu item; otherwise, false. The default is false.
When a menu item is selected to display an MDI child window list, the list is displayed as a submenu of the menu item. Only forms that are defined as MDI child forms are displayed in the window list. Only nine child windows can be displayed at a time. If there are more than nine child windows displayed, a "More Windows..." menu item is displayed at the end of the window list. Clicking this menu item displays a dialog box with a complete list of the child windows that are currently active.
The following code example creates a MenuItem that is used to display the list of currently open MDI child forms in an MDI form.
