Hi Yucca,

My buffer to be added to the menu pane is dynamic and is more than 40 characters length. Iam having this text in HBufC *poString.

If I can set this text in iExtraText, then i can use EnableMarqueL to make it completely visible to user.

How can i use this iExtraText.
Please help me on this

check the functions provided by CEikMenuPaneItem, there seems to be something about icons there. anyway, if I remember right there was some issues with some phone models, so check it out, and see if it works.

in your DynInitMenuPaneL, you could try something like this:

CEikMenuPaneItem::SData data;
data.iText = KTxtMyCommandText;
data.iCommandId = EMyCommandID
data.iCascadeId=0;
data.iFlags=0;
data.iExtraText=KNullDesC;
aMenuPane->AddMenuItemL(data);
