CommandHandlerRegistrationContext.shouldAddCommandToSubmenu?

CommandHandlerRegistrationContext › shouldAddCommandToSubmenu?

Type: boolean | undefined

Overrides the handler's own shouldAddCommandToSubmenu, or undefined to leave it alone.

A menu surface that already wraps every contributed item in a plugin-titled parent entry — such as NotebookNavigatorMenuEventRegistrarComponent — sets this to false, because a handler declaring a section submenu of its own would make Menu.sort() nest a second plugin-titled entry inside the first. Only AbstractFileCommandHandler reads it: the surfaces that need it bridge file and folder menus, never the editor menu.
