Hi, I want to add icon on CExtbutton.

As your sample, I use AssignFromHICON() but i couldn’t see icon.

below see my code, please help me.

======================================================

CExtButton m_ctrlBtnExample;

 m_ctrlBtnExample.SetWindowPos(NULL, dwX, dwY, 120, 70, NULL);

 m_ctrlBtnExample.m_icon.AssignFromHICON(

  (HICON) ::LoadImage(

  ::AfxGetInstanceHandle(),

  MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON1),

  IMAGE_ICON,

  32,

  32,

  0

  ),

  false

  );

=======================================================

I have derived a class from ’CExtPageContainerWnd’.

how can I map the navigation page selection change event (i.e., selection changing event and selection changed event)

in my derived class?

Also I need to get the index of the selected navigation page on that event.

 

Thanks

ok working fine. Thank u very much

Hi,

I noticed that in 2.87, if the header cells are not visible ( using OuterRowCountTopset( 0L, true) ), the width for the column does not correspond with the one I set with ExtentSet (called from a header cell). However, that code was working in 2.85.

In other word, I was able to create and display a one-row-only grid with no headers with configurable column widths in 2.85 but not in 2.87.

Are there any changes that could reflect this new behavior?

Thank you!

When I reduce the size of my application, each toolbar must be placed below the other.

Is it possible ?

You can create a test project with your improved toolbar behavior implementation and send it to us. We will check it.

and each toolbar must keep is maximum size (no hidden icon) how to do ?

By default, the toolbar’s minimum size is determined by the size of toolbar when it has at least one visible button. If several toolbars are docked into one row and you decrease the width of the main frame window, the toolbars decrease their size too. If the minimum size of each toolbar is reached, they automatically wrap. It’s possible to implement the same behavior but with toolbars keeping a large width/height. You can override the CExtToolControlBar::_SizeToolBar() virtual method, determine whether the bar is docked and simply return without invoking the parent class method invocation. You can determine whether a toolbar is docked using the dialog control identifier of toolbar’s parent window. It’s one of the AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_*** values.

I thought I had this working when I applied the instructions for CextNCSB to a CExtListCtrl in the same way you instructed for a CRichEditCtrl, but there were some problems I just discovered.

I have a CListCtrl derived class that is used in a few places in my application.  I don’t recall exactly how I initially did it after I got the CRichEditCtrl scroll bars skinned, but it was looking correct.  I have been experimenting around with it and currently the control and this is the current behavior:

-Upon initial draw, the scroll bar is not skinned

-When I scroll with the mouse wheel, the up and down arrows skin, but the slide bar does not. 

-Changing focus away from the control causes the slide bar to skin.

-Moving the mouse over the slide bar also causes it to skin

-The way it was working before the latest changes, the list would scroll with the mouse wheel, but not with the up and down arrows on the slide bar or grabbing and dragging the slide bar.

This is how I currently have the control defined:

The class definition

class CTTListCtrl : public CExtNCSB <CExtListCtrl>

The constructor

CTTListCtrl::CTTListCtrl() : CExtNCSB < CExtListCtrl > (true,true)

{

}

Declaration of the list control

    CTTListCtrl    m_HistoryList;

I tried deriving the CTTListCtrl class from CListCtrl as described in another forum post I saw here, but that only skins the scroll bar.  I must be missing something simple.

I e-mailed tech support with a sample project over the weekend.

We received your e-mail and replied it with a fixed version of your project in attachment.

How can make one line label and edittextbox in ribbon interface. ProfUIS 2.85
for example: Name: ______

I try this code but, label is look like button

    CExtRibbonNodeGroup * pRibbonGroupName = new CExtRibbonNodeToolGroup( ID_GROUP_NAME );
    pRibbonGroup->InsertNode(0, pRibbonGroupName);

    CExtCustomizeCmdTreeNode * pNodeName =    new CExtRibbonNodeLabel(ID_LNAME, 0, 0, _T("Name:"));
    pRibbonGroupName->InsertNode(0, pNodeName);

    CExtCustomizeCmdTreeNode *pNodeNameEditBox =    new CExtRibbonNode( ID_NAME_ENTER );
    pNodeNameEditBox->ModifyFlags( __ECTN_TBB_TEXT_FIELD );
    pNodeNameEditBox->TextFieldWidthSet( 40 );
    pRibbonGroupName->InsertNode(0, pNodeNameEditBox);

Thank you. It works.
Could you say how can I reduce distance between label and editbox?

There are two solutions:

1) Create and use your own CExtRibbonNodeButton-derived class which instantiates your CExtRibbonButtonGroup button class. Your button class should implement the CExtRibbonButtonGroup::OnRibbonGetOuterGroupDistance() virtual method which returns required distances before/after group of buttons.


2) Override the CExtRibbonPage::_OnRibbonContentPaddingGetOuterGroupDistance() internal virtual method in your ribbon bar class. Return required distances for required group buttons.

In both cases you can even return negative distances.

We inserted 3 groups with labels into the Clipboard group of buttons on the Home ribbon tab page in the RibbonBar sample application:

CExtRibbonNode * CMainFrame::_InitRibbonNode_Home_Clipboard()
{
CExtRibbonNodeGroup * pRibbonGroup =
                        new CExtRibbonNodeGroup( ID_RIBBON_PAGE_CLIPBOARD );
            pRibbonGroup->CmdKeyTipSet( new CExtCustomizeCmdKeyTip( __EXT_MFC_SAFE_LPCTSTR( _T("ZC") ) ), false );
            VERIFY( pRibbonGroup->m_iconBig.m_bmpNormal.LoadBMP_Resource( MAKEINTRESOURCE(ID_EDIT_PASTE_BIG) ) );
            pRibbonGroup->m_iconBig.m_bmpNormal.Make32();
            pRibbonGroup->m_iconBig.m_bmpNormal.AlphaColor( RGB(255,0,255), RGB(0,0,0), 0 );
                                                                                    CExtCustomizeCmdScreenTip * pCmdScreenTip = new CExtCustomizeCmdScreenTip;
                                                                                    pCmdScreenTip->TextMainSet( _T("Clipboard") );
                                                                                    pRibbonGroup->CmdScreenTipAttach( pCmdScreenTip );

Thank you for sharing ideas with us. Here is the updated scroll bar code:

http://www.prof-uis.com/download/forums/tmp/ScrollBar288.zip

The 120 thousand problem is not solved yet. The list view common control’s window procedure returns the 100 thousand scrolling range when it handles the SBM_GETSCROLLINFO message - it never returns a greater range nevertheless the native non-client area scroll bars support this. It looks like we will need to re-code list view control from scratch.

First of all, your menu construction code contains lines like these:

LRESULT lresult = pFrame->SendMessage(ID_PROFUIS_SCROLL_BAR, ID_PROFUIS_SCROLL_HERE , ((LPARAM) &str));

The ID_PROFUIS_SCROLL_BAR constant is used as a message number and it’s defined as:

#define ID_PROFUIS_SCROLL_BAR 30

Please note, 30 equals to 0x1E and Win32 SDK contains the following definition:

#define WM_TIMECHANGE                   0x001E

Please switch using some WM_USER-based message number.
Second, the CExtPopupMenuWnd::MENUITEMDATA::GetCmdNode() method is invoked at very beginning of the CExtPopupMenuWnd::_EndSequenceEx() method where the reference to the CExtPopupMenuWnd::MENUITEMDATA object cannot be invalid:

void CExtPopupMenuWnd::_EndSequenceEx(
            CExtPopupMenuWnd::MENUITEMDATA & mi
            )
{
#if (!defined __EXT_MFC_NO_CUSTOMIZE)
            _KeyTipsShow( false );
#endif // (!defined __EXT_MFC_NO_CUSTOMIZE)

            if(                     (! _IsFadeOutAnimation() )
                        &&        m_ctrlShadow.GetSafeHwnd() != NULL
                        )
                        m_ctrlShadow.DestroyWindow();

#if (!defined __EXT_MFC_NO_CUSTOMIZE)
CExtCustomizeCmdTreeNode * pNode = mi.GetCmdNode();
. . .

This means, unfortunately, the call stack listing didn’t help us in this case. Is it possible to insert your source code in any of Prof-UIS sample apps or in some test project, make it reproducing this crash and send it to us?

I want to change the font of the button in my page navigator. I use  SendMessage with the parameters : (WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM) hFontBold, 1), but nothing change.

could my problem come from the overdrive of the function OnQueryItemHeight  ?

and how to change the background color for the selected page ?

The pages are windows inserted into the page navigator control. You should repaint the background of your page windows. For example, the TabbedBars sample application demonstrates the inherited background painting feature. You can check the check boxes on the third page in the one note tab page container and see the custom painted hurricane like background distributed between tab page dialogs, their child control and even entire main frame window.

thanks and how to change the background color of the selected button ?

There is no background color. These buttons are painted by the currently installed paint manager. Some paint managers paint a gradient square. Other paint manager paint a bitmap based button skin. You can override the CExtPageNavigatorWnd::OnPageNavigatorDrawCollapsedItemsArea and CExtPageNavigatorWnd::OnPageNavigatorDrawExpandedItemsArea() virtual methods to redraw collapsed and expanded items.

The font of item captions is computed dynamically in the CExtPaintManager::PaintPageNavigatorCaptionText() virtual method:

void CExtPaintManager::PaintPageNavigatorCaptionText(
            CDC & dc,
            const CRect & rcItem,
            __EXT_MFC_SAFE_LPCTSTR strCaption,
            bool bPushed,
            bool bHover,
            bool bAllowInvertTextColor // = true
            )
{
            ASSERT_VALID( this );
            ASSERT( dc.GetSafeHdc() != NULL );
            if( ! dc.RectVisible(&rcItem) )
                        return;
LOGFONT lf = { sizeof(LOGFONT) };
            VERIFY( ::SystemParametersInfo( SPI_GETICONTITLELOGFONT, sizeof(LOGFONT), &lf, 0 ) );

            lf.lfWeight = FW_BOLD;
CFont font;
            font.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
CFont * pOldFont = dc.SelectObject( &font );
COLORREF clrOldText =
                        dc.SetTextColor( 
                                    bPushed && bHover && bAllowInvertTextColor
                                                ? GetColor( COLOR_WINDOW, this ) 
                                                : GetColor( COLOR_BTNTEXT, this ) 
                                    );
            PaintPageNavigatorCaptionTextImpl( dc, rcItem, strCaption );
            dc.SetTextColor( clrOldText );
            dc.SelectObject( pOldFont );
}

void CExtPaintManagerOffice2007_Impl::PaintPageNavigatorCaptionText(
            CDC & dc,
            const CRect & rcItem,
            __EXT_MFC_SAFE_LPCTSTR strCaption,
            bool bPushed,
            bool bHover,
            bool bAllowInvertTextColor // = true
            )

            ASSERT_VALID( this );
            ASSERT( dc.GetSafeHdc() != NULL );
            if( ! dc.RectVisible(&rcItem) )
                        return;
            if( IsHighContrast() )
            {

            dc.SetTextColor( clrOldText );

}

You should override this method in your paint manager class.

Is there a way to add the description field to a button?  For example in Office Word 2007 if you select the top right circular button with the options "New", "Open", "Save", .. etc. select the "Save As" button, the buttons in the drop down have the button.text value as well as a field that gives a short description of the button.  Is there a way to do this with your tool?

Hi,

We are currently experiencing a problem with our menus that until now has gone unnoticed. When using the keyboard to select a menu (for example ALT + F) the first item is not being selected. Or more specifically it is being selected initially when OnTrackPopup is called but within a fraction of a second the item is no longer selected. However, CExtPopupWndMenu::_ItemFocusCancel is not being called. Is the menu being redrawn somewhere else that we are not noticing?

I appreciate that this is quite an ambiguous question but any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Hmmm. Have just done that and it appears that both functions are only called once when tracking the menu. Strange, guess it’s just something we’ll have to live with. Cheers.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that we are running an older version of Prof-uis, 2.60 I think. I appreciate that this is probably not a bug as it is something that you would have picked up on long ago, you notice quite quickly that the menus don’t work as you’re used to.

We are wondering whether it has something to do with the way we create our menus? The code for this is from an older version of our product which we have ported directly into our latest version. The major difference is that we are using prof-uis.

Essentially what we do is build the menus from a text file, like xml but in a more archaic fashion. For example our file menu looks like this:

Se&lect Project...	  #Ctrl+L \ @DfwFileProjectLogin
&Project Information...		 \ @DfwFileProjectInfo
							    \
&New						    \ >
	    &Worksheet	  #Ctrl+N \ @DfwFileNewWorksheet

	    &Script...	  #Ctrl+R \ @DfwFileRunScript

From this file we build our menus using the following code:

    // Open the file (may already be open)



    if( !StartOptions(lpszFileName, &fp) )

Okay I don’t seem to have the handle of this editor, but all the above boxes are one function. The GetNextOption() function simply returns 3 ExStrings (our own class) which we build the menus from.

We replace the menus in the main frame as follows:

bool CMainFrame::ReplaceMenus(CMenus* pMenus /*=NULL*/)
{
    // Use the internal set of menus if none specified

    if( pMenus == NULL )
    {
        pMenus = &m_cMenus;
    }

    // Replace the mainframe menu and add new commands to command manager

    CMenu *pNewMenu = pMenus->GetAt(0);
    CMenu *pFrameMenu = GetMenu();
    SetMenu(pNewMenu);

    if(pFrameMenu)
    {
        pFrameMenu->DestroyMenu();
        pFrameMenu = NULL;
    }

    g_CmdManager->UpdateFromMenu(AfxGetApp()->m_pszProfileName, pNewMenu->m_hMenu, true, true, true);

    // Replace document specific menus with new ones

    CDocManager* pDocManager = AfxGetApp ()->m_pDocManager;

    if (pDocManager != NULL)
    {
        // Walk all templates in the application:

        int iMenuIndex = 0;

        for (POSITION pos = pDocManager->GetFirstDocTemplatePosition (); pos != NULL;)
        {
            CMultiDocTemplate* pTemplate = 
                (CMultiDocTemplate*) pDocManager->GetNextDocTemplate (pos);
            ASSERT_VALID (pTemplate);
            ASSERT_KINDOF (CDocTemplate, pTemplate);

            // We are interested in CMultiDocTemplate objects with
            // the shared menu only....

            if( pTemplate->IsKindOf (RUNTIME_CLASS (CMultiDocTemplate)) )
            {
                // Load menubar from supplied menus list and associate it with the
                // template shared menu:

                if( pTemplate->m_hMenuShared != NULL )
                {
                    // Replace menu and add new commands to command manager

                    CMenu *pNewMenu = pMenus->GetAt(iMenuIndex+1);
                    pTemplate->m_hMenuShared = pNewMenu->m_hMenu;
                    pNewMenu->Detach();

                    g_CmdManager->UpdateFromMenu(AfxGetApp()->m_pszProfileName, pTemplate->m_hMenuShared, true, true, true);
                }

                iMenuIndex++;

                // Load an additional menubar from supplied menus list and associate 
                // it with the template in-place server menu if it has one:

                if( pTemplate->m_hMenuInPlaceServer != NULL )
                {
                    // Replace menu and add new commands to command manager

                    CMenu *pNewMenu = pMenus->GetAt(iMenuIndex+1);
                    pTemplate->m_hMenuInPlaceServer = pNewMenu->m_hMenu;
                    pNewMenu->Detach();

                    g_CmdManager->UpdateFromMenu(AfxGetApp()->m_pszProfileName, pTemplate->m_hMenuInPlaceServer, true, true, true);
                }

                // Load an additional menubar from supplied menus list and associate 
                // it with the template embedded server menu if it has one:

                iMenuIndex++;

                if( pTemplate->m_hMenuEmbedding != NULL )
                {
                    // Replace menu and add new commands to command manager

                    CMenu *pNewMenu = pMenus->GetAt(iMenuIndex+1);
                    pTemplate->m_hMenuEmbedding = pNewMenu->m_hMenu;
                    pNewMenu->Detach();

                    g_CmdManager->UpdateFromMenu(AfxGetApp()->m_pszProfileName, pTemplate->m_hMenuEmbedding, true, true, true);
                }

                iMenuIndex++;
            }
        }
    }

    // Cleanup

    for( int i=0; i<pMenus->GetSize(); i++)
    {
        CMenu *pMenu = pMenus->GetAt(i);

        if( pMenu != NULL )
        {
            // Detach from the before deletion (HMENU is now owned by the mainframe or template)

            pMenu->Detach();
            delete pMenu;
        }
    }

    pMenus->RemoveAll();
    
    return true;
}

Finally we do a OnExtMenuPrepare where we update the MRU etc.

LRESULT CMainFrame::OnExtMenuPrepare(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    CExtPopupMenuWnd::MsgPrepareMenuData_t *pData =    reinterpret_cast< CExtPopupMenuWnd::MsgPrepareMenuData_t * >(wParam);
     ASSERT( pData != NULL );
 
    CExtPopupMenuWnd * pPopup = pData->m_pPopup;
     ASSERT( pPopup != NULL );

    CExtPopupMenuWnd *pTheMenu = NULL;
    int iReplacePos = -1;

#ifndef _DATSMINI
    // Build the Favorites menu
    // ------------------------------------------

    if( FindMenuItemFromCmdID(pPopup, ID_FAVORITES_LIST, pTheMenu, iReplacePos) ) 
    {

These are the main places where the menus are created and updates. Hopefully you can spot some problem that we haven’t seen. If you need more info feel please free to ask.

 

Thanks

 

 

No, you can switch to the latest Prof-UIS and re-check this issue. It should not appear.

This problem is absent in 2.60 too. It does not depend on the dynamic menu initialization. The only case when the first menu item can be non-selected is when your code removes all the menu items. Please try to set breakpoints into the beginning of the CExtPopupMenuWnd::_ItemFocusSet() and CExtPopupMenuWnd::_ItemFocusCancel() methods and you will see whether popup menu tries to set focus to the first displayed menu item or whether it cancels it and why.

Hello,

I created my own row header cell having a button to popup a menu. The code below works fine. But when I change the button type to __EGCS_BUTTON_DROPDOWN the menu is not shown anymore. Instead I see a small rectangle.

How should I implement my header cell if I want to  use the __EGCS_BUTTON_DROPDOWN type?

Thanks in advance,

Bart.

 




CClassRowHeader::CClassRowHeader(CExtGridDataProvider* pDataProvider)

: CExtGridCellHeader(pDataProvider)

{

  ModifyStyle(__EGCS_TA_HORZ_RIGHT | __EGCS_BUTTON_ELLIPSIS);

}

void CClassRowHeader::OnButtonPressed(

 CExtGridWnd & wndGrid,

 INT nButtonType,

 const RECT & rcCellExtra,

 const RECT & rcCell,

 LONG nVisibleColNo,

 LONG nVisibleRowNo,

 LONG nColNo,

 LONG nRowNo,

 INT nColType,

 INT nRowType)

{

  CExtPopupMenuWnd* menu = new CExtPopupMenuWnd;

  menu->CreatePopupMenu(wndGrid.GetSafeHwnd());

  menu->ItemInsertCommand(WM_GRADING_TABLE_INSERT_ROW_BEFORE, -1, LANGUAGE_GET_CAT("InsertRowBefore"));

  menu->ItemInsertCommand(WM_GRADING_TABLE_INSERT_ROW_AFTER, -1, LANGUAGE_GET_CAT("InsertRowAfter"));

  menu->ItemInsertCommand(WM_GRADING_TABLE_DELETE_ROW, -1, LANGUAGE_GET_CAT("DeleteRow"));

  menu->ItemInsertCommand(WM_GRADING_TABLE_CLEAR_ROW, -1, LANGUAGE_GET_CAT("ClearRow"));

  CRect cellRect(rcCell);

  wndGrid.ClientToScreen(cellRect);

  CRect rcExclude(cellRect.left, cellRect.bottom, cellRect.left + 3, cellRect.bottom + 3);

  if (! menu->TrackPopupMenu(TPMX_LEFTALIGN, cellRect.left, cellRect.bottom, &rcExclude))

  {

    menu->DestroyWindow();

    delete menu;

    menu = NULL;

  }

  __super::OnButtonPressed(wndGrid, nButtonType, rcCellExtra, rcCell, nVisibleColNo, nVisibleRowNo, nColNo, nRowNo, nColType, nRowType);

}

- Your changes draw the menu on some other place when I use the __EGCS_BUTTON_ELLIPSIS style

- When I use the __EGCS_BUTTON_DROPDOWN style I still see a small rectangle in stead of the menu

- I do not analyze which button is pressed since I know that there is only one button in the cell.

 

 

First of all, the menu->DestroyWindow(); line of code should be removed. Second, the exclude area rectangle should use the screen coordinate system. The rcCell and rcCellExtra rectangles are using grid window client coordinate system. You should invoke the wndGrid.ClientToScreen( &rcExclude ); line of code. Third, the point coordinates are also should be in screen coordinate system and it should be inside exclude rectangle. This means the following part of your code snippet:

   CRect rcExclude( cellRect.left, cellRect.bottom, cellRect.left + 3, cellRect.bottom + 3 ) ;
            if( ! menu->TrackPopupMenu( TPMX_LEFTALIGN, cellRect.left, cellRect.bottom, &rcExclude ) )
            {
                        delete menu;
                        menu = NULL;
            }

Should be replaced with the following:

   CRect rcExclude = rcCell;
            m_wndGrid.ClientToScreen( &rcExclude );
            CPoint pt =  rcExclude.CenterPoint();
            if( ! menu->TrackPopupMenu( TPMX_LEFTALIGN, pt.x, pt.y, &rcExclude ) )
            {
                        delete menu;
                        menu = NULL;
            }

Fourth, if you are handling the button pressing event, then you should not invoke the parent class method. Fifth, your code does not analyze which button is clicked. It will work correctly only if your header cell uses only one button.

I’ve been trying to get Prof UIS working with a CRichEditCtrl and I’m getting asserts.  This is a control created at run time rather than created in the resource editor.

I have done:

In class declaration:

    CExtNCSB <CRichEditCtrl> m_RichEdit;

In OnInitDialog:

    m_RichEdit.Create( WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|ES_LEFT|ES_MULTILINE|ES_READONLY|WS_HSCROLL|WS_VSCROLL|WS_TABSTOP,

                       rcDummy,this,IDC_HELPTEXT);

When I started, the last argument was IDC_STATIC.  I changed this to IDC_HELPTEXT but it still asserts on the .Create call.

I read on the forum that CExtNCSB works with CRichEditCtrl with versions 2.83 and later.  I’m using 2.85.

Bill





 

I finally figured out what was going on.  I tried commenting out manipulations of the control after creation and found that this line:

m_RichEdit.SetOptions(ECOOP_SET,ECO_READONLY | ECO_SAVESEL | ECO_AUTOWORDSELECTION);

was what was preventing the control from skinning.  For some odd reason after commenting this out, my resizing code started behaving oddly, though it skinned the scroll bar from initialization.  After some tweaking of the resize code it looks like everything works OK without SetOptions, so I will just leave it out.  I’m not sure why it caused a problem, but it did.

Thanks for the help,

Bill

 

The behavior of the rich edit control depends on its ECO_*** options and sometimes it may eat or not send the scrolling messages which the CExtNCSB template class expects to intercept for synchronizing and updating the state of the CExtScrollBar windows.

We have the rich editor based log view in the date browser dialog page in the ProfUIS_Controls sample application and it works OK. We suspect the problem with scroll bars in your app may be related to the rich edit control initialization or set of its styles you are using. Please provide us with the source code which creates and initializes the rich edit control in your project. Please also note, the scroll bars are skinned only if the currently installed paint manager supports skinned scroll bars (Office 2007/2010 and ProfSkin).

OK, I derived a class with the above code.  The scroll bar skins OK when I click on something in the dialog or move the mouse over the scroll bar, but it doesn’t skin when it is initially drawn.

Bill

How can I retrieve the height and width of a cell / outer cell? GetExtend() is somewhat weird to me for it always returns the width.

Thanks

We want to had the chevron in our application when button in the toolbar are hidden.

We follow the sample on the forum www.prof-uis.com/prof-uis/tech-support/support-forum/display-chevron-for-invisible-buttons-10850.aspx

but when the chevron is visible when we click on it nothing is visible.

Can some one help me ?

 

thanks

We just put the source code of the CMyBar class into the SDI sample application and it works OK. This class does what you need. What’s wrong with it?

here my code :

 

 class CUI_ToolBar :
    public CExtToolControlBar
{
public:
    class CMyContentExpandButton : public CExtBarContentExpandButton
    {
    public:
	    CMyContentExpandButton( CExtToolControlBar * pBar = NULL )
		    : CExtBarContentExpandButton( pBar )
	    {
	    }
	    virtual bool IsVisible() const
	    {
		    bool bVisible = ( GetButtons().GetSize() > 0 ) ? true : false;
		    return bVisible;
	    }
    };

    CUI_ToolBar(void);
    virtual CExtBarContentExpandButton * OnCreateBarRightBtn()
{
 return new CMyContentExpandButton( this );
}
    virtual ~CUI_ToolBar(void);

    virtual void _RecalcPositionsImpl()
{
    CExtToolControlBar::_RecalcPositionsImpl();
    if( m_pDockBar != NULL )
    {
        return;
    }
    CExtBarContentExpandButton * pRightTBB = GetRightButton();
    if( pRightTBB == NULL )
    {
        return;
    }
    if( ! pRightTBB->IsVisible() )
    {
        return;
    }
    bool bHorz = ((GetBarStyle()&(CBRS_ALIGN_TOP|CBRS_ALIGN_BOTTOM))!=0) ? true : false;
    CRect rcRightTBB = *pRightTBB, rcClient;
    GetClientRect( &rcClient );
    rcRightTBB.OffsetRect(
        bHorz ? ( rcClient.right - rcRightTBB.right ) : 0,
        bHorz ? 0 : ( rcClient.bottom - rcRightTBB.bottom )
        );
    pRightTBB->SetRect( rcRightTBB );
    INT nIndex, nCount = GetButtonsCount();
    for( nIndex = 0; nIndex < nCount; nIndex ++ )
    {
        CExtBarButton * pTBB = GetButton( nIndex );
        if( ! pTBB->IsVisible() )
        {
            continue;
        }
        if( pTBB == pRightTBB )
        {
            continue;
        }
        CRect rcTBB = *pTBB;
        if( bHorz )
        {
            if( rcTBB.right < rcRightTBB.left )
            {
                continue;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            if( rcTBB.bottom < rcRightTBB.top )
            {
                continue;
            }
        }
        pTBB->Show( false );
        pRightTBB->GetButtons().InsertAt( 0, pTBB );
    }

}

    //virtual CExtBarButton * OnCreateBarCommandBtn(UINT nCmdID, UINT nStyle = 0);
};
 
in the mainframe :
int CUI_MainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
...
if(	!this->m_ToolBar_File.Create(
			NULL,
			this,
			AFX_IDW_TOOLBAR
			)
		||
		!this->m_ToolBar_File.LoadToolBar( IDR_TOOLBAR_FILE)
		)
	{
		TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar file\n");
		return -1;      // fail to create
	}
...
m_ToolBar_File.EnableDocking( CBRS_ALIGN_ANY );
DockControlBar( &m_ToolBar_File);
..
}

When I debug this code, it stop and exist on the line :

    if( m_pDockBar != NULL )

    {

        return;

    }

If I comment the lines, and replace the for( nIndex = 0; nIndex < nCount; nIndex ++ ) with

 

    for( nIndex = 0; nIndex < nCount; nIndex ++ )
    {
        CExtBarButton * pTBB = GetButton( nIndex );
        pRightTBB->GetButtons().InsertAt( 0, pTBB );
    }

When I click on the chevron no menu will be visible. Have you got an idea ?

 

In our application we want to have menu icon items in 16*16 and toolbar icon in 32*32 withou using different identifiers for menu items and toolbar buttons.

Is it possible ?

You don’t need two different handler methods. You need two message map entries based on different command identifiers and pointing to one handler method.

Thanks for your help, I found a solution. I overdrive the CalculateLayout and PaintCompound from the CExtBarButton class and It works.

To simplify our working because for each command we have 2 functions and we have a lot of command identifiers. It’s easier to use the same identifier for other programmer. Is it possible ?

Good day,

I have a CExtControlBar which is a "container" for a CExtWRB< BarDialog > TabBar.

I have made all th adjustments for the CExtControlBar to be dockable:

CExtControlBar::FrameEnableDocking(this);
this->m_wndResizableBarDlg.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
this->m_wndResizableBarDlg.DockControlBar( AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT, 1, this, false );

My program starts and the it is correctly docked in the left.

When i try to move the controlbar the program crashes.

The line which causes this is in file: ExtControlBar.cpp  in function CControlBar * CExtControlBar::_GetNextControlBarInRow( )

the ASSERT( nPos >= 0 ); fails becuse its value is -1.

Thanx in advance for any suggestions on the matter.

Hi,

I have created one SDI Application. And i am using splash wnd before the frame is created.

I have used the same splash wnd class given in one of your sample application. It is working fine. But the problem is, my screen resolution is too high. And the bitmap image i used in splash wnd is small compare to that screen resolution. Because of that my whole screen does not cover by that bitmap image.

 

Is there any way to stratch the bitmap image in splash wnd? So that i can cover whole screen with that bitmap before that frame created.

 

Here is how you can get the size of the desktop:

CPoint pt( 0, 0 );
CExtPaintManager::monitor_parms_t _mp;
            CExtPaintManager::stat_GetMonitorParms( _mp, pt ); 

The _mp.m_rcMonitor property specifies the entire monitor coordinates including all the shell bar windows docked to the monitor sides (i.e. windows like standard Windows Task Bar). The _mp.m_rcWorkArea property specifies the work area coordinates on the monitor which does not include shell bars (i.e. coordinates of the maximized window). The last rectangle is what you need. It gives you size of bitmap you should use in your splash window.

You can query the size of desktop area and resize your splash bitmap to make it equal to desktop area size. Then you can assign such big bitmap to your splash window.

Hi,

Yes i have already tried that. I am quering my screen size and then set the bitmap size. But the problem is my Bitmap is not that much large.
Is there any way to stratch bitmap as per screen size in splashwnd.

Hi,

No, it’s showing the bitmap correctely, but the problem is it covers only some part of screen(the size of bitmap). I want to cover whole screen with botmap. So is there any way to stratch the bitmap at run time using splash wnd.

Hi there

I have a cell in which I only show an icon. I inherit from CExtGridWnd and did as follows:

...

    CExtCmdIcon* pIcon = new CExtCmdIcon();

    pIcon->AssignFromHICON(AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDI_INPUT_ACTIVE), true);

    m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.Add(GridIconInsert(pIcon, -1, true));

    delete pIcon;

    pIcon = new CExtCmdIcon();

    pIcon->AssignFromHICON(AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDI_INPUT_INACTIVE), true);

    m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.Add(GridIconInsert(pIcon, -1, true));

    delete pIcon;

    pIcon = new CExtCmdIcon();

    pIcon->AssignFromHICON(AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDI_INPUT_UNDEFINED), true);

    m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.Add(GridIconInsert(pIcon, -1, true));

    delete pIcon;

    pIcon = 0;

...

and later use as follows:

...

        //HW

        pCell = GridCellGet(HW, i, 0, 0);

        //Search the bitmap for HW indication

        int ulIndex = m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.GetAt(pInputOutput->GetPurpose()->GetStateAttribute()->GetValue());

        if(!pInputOutput->GetPurpose()->GetMaskAttribute()->GetValue())

        {

            ulIndex = m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.GetAt(m_aImageIndexHwIndicator.GetCount() - 1);

        }

        pCell->IconIndexSet(ulIndex);

...

but however, the cell(s) stay empty...

What am I missing here?

I also tried an CExtGridCellString but I think the Icon thing is implemented in the base class...

Ahh, I’m using v. 2.70

 

thanks for any input

Christain

All grid cells support icons. This feature is built-in and cannot be turned off without overriding virtual methods of grid cells, data provider and/or grid control. If the icons are not displayed, then there is something wrong with implementation of your grid related classes or their initializations. Could you please send us the source code of your grid related classes to the support mail box at this web site and we will check what’s wrong. We need to take a look at the grid control initialization code and any classes derived from Prof-UIS grid cells and grid controls.

Ok now, it’s a little bit embarrassing The icon had an empty 32x32Bit image which was taken to show, obviously. Now I deleted it and the icon is shown. BUT it is streched to 32x32Bit and overlapps the cell! Originally it is only  15x13Bit. How can I prevent stretching?

Thanks

There is not enough information in your message to come to any conclusion about the reported icon behavior. How did you delete it? Did you unregister it from the grid control? Did you reset the cells icon index to -1?

No, sorry... As you know, an icon file (.ico) can contain many images. So I opened the icon file with an icon editor and found an empty 32x32Bit image which I then deletet within the icon file. The only image left in the icon file then was the one I needed with a size of 15x13Bit. After this the icons where visible in the grid but stretched to 32x32Bit. However, I now created a new 32x32Bit image and placed the smaller image in it. To me, this is a workaround but at least the icon is shown correctly now.

My question was only: can I tell the grid cell in what ’size’ an icon has to appear?

Thanks for your help and excuse my english if this is what caused the trouble

It’s not important how many images are stored in the .ICO file and it’s not important which size these images have. The LoadIcon() API always loads only a 32x32 image into the ICO handle. The LoadImage() API loads an icon image of the requested size and it probably uses some algorithm for finding an icon of the closest size to avoid scaling.

The Prof-UIS grid control does not scale icons. You should just load icons of requested size using the LoadImage() API, initialize the CExtCmdIcon objects from loaded HICON handles and register icons in the grid.

The icon indices can be assigned to any cell, including the basic CExtGridCell class. Please check whether you specified a valid icon index. Your code inserts 3 icons into the grid control. So, at least icon indices 0, 1 and 2 are valid. Please try to specify 0, 1 or 2 as icon index explicitly.

is it possible to disable the Show or Hide Panels Button in a undocked Toolbar ?



I use the OnExtMenuPrepare function to translate the menu but it dont work for this menu.
