Hello:

    I have create a color button in RibbonBar. I want that the color can change automatically when the cursor move above the color, but if I do not

Please run the FormulaGrid sample application and select some range of grid cells in it. Now you can move the mouse pointer over the ribbon gallery items or over the color palette menus. As a result, the style of the selected grid cells will be changed. But style is restored if you didn’t pick any color or any style preset. Is that what you need?

You should override the CExtCustomizeSite::OnColorItemValueGet() virtual method in your CExtRibbonBar-derived class for providing any color buttons with any dynamically changed color values. The CExtCustomizeSite::RedrawCommandItems() method allows you to repaint the color buttons when you changed its color value. You can override the CExtCustomizeSite::OnColorItemValueSet() virtual method to catch the color value selection event.

But I want the color icon on the button can be changed automatically just when the cursor move above the according color beside I select the color. Moreover if I do not select the color finally, the color icon on the button will restore.

Thank you!

Hello:

    I create it as follows.

 CExtRibbonNode * pNodeBackgroundColor =  new CExtRibbonNodeToolButton( ID_VIEW_BACKGROUND_COLOR );

 pNodeBackgroundColor->SetLParam( ID_VIEW_BACKGROUND_COLOR );

 pNodeBackgroundColor->CmdKeyTipSet( new CExtCustomizeCmdKeyTip( __EXT_MFC_SAFE_TCHAR( _T(’BC’) ) ), false );

 pNodeBackgroundColor->ModifyFlags( __ECTN_TBB_COLOR|__ECTN_TBB_MCB_CUSTOM|__ECTN_TBB_MCB_DEFAULT );
