Hello dear support team,

thanks for very nice GUI and for quick and good customer support!

I would like, in my SDI-App, to put an non-redockable CExtToolControlBar into CExtControlBar that contents an CExtResizableDialog.

Is there any way to do that?

For Example, I have a Window with AVI-Screen in my CExtControlBar and I wish an control (play, stop,...) Toolbar directly over or below this screen.

Thanks, Kenan.

Any kind of control bar provided with Prof-UIS can be used in the non-redockable mode. Please take a look at the control bars in the FixedSizePanels sample application (some of the control bars are initially invisible) and tell us which of them best fit your requirements.

P.S.:

If anyone want to know how to put CExtToolControlBar into CExtResizableDialog:

1. Create IDR_MYTOOLBAR toolbar

2. Insert into MainFrm.h file:

public:
  CExtToolControlBar m_wndToolBarControl;

3. Insert into ’OnCreate’ method of CMainFrame:

...

ASSERT( m_wndToolBarControl.GetSafeHwnd() != NULL );

  if( !m_wndToolBarControl.LoadToolBar( IDR_MYTOOLBAR ) )
  {
    ASSERT( FALSE );
    return FALSE;
  }

// If you want bAllOOn toolbars :)
  m_wndToolBarControl.m_bForceBalloonGradientInDialogs = TRUE;
  
  CWnd::RepositionBars(0,0xFFFF,0);

...

Hello and thanks to support team,

sorry if I was faint descripting my problem, it was this one:

- Putting ToolBar into Dialog

:) yes I know, sometime are simple things so unreachable :)

greetings

You can use Prof-UIS toolbars in dialogs or other windows and this is not difficult to implement. Of course, the toolbars cannot be dockable in this case. Please run the ProfStudio application and you will see that there are many toolbars like you need. For instance, the Class View window is implemented as a resizable dialog (IDD_DIALOG_CLASSVIEW ) with a toolbar and a tree-view control inside. You could use this construction in your project. Just create a dialog resource in your project and set the same properties for it as in the IDD_DIALOG_CLASSVIEW dialog of the ProfStudio project, copy or create the IDC_CLASS_VIEW_TOOLBAR custom control and define one or more controls to occupy the rest of the dockable dialog. You will also need to stick the toolbar to the dialog side. Here are what you need to do in the code:

1) Define the CExtToolControlBar m_wndToolBar; property in your dockable dialog class and add the following line to the DoDataExchange() method of your dialog class:

DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_CLASS_VIEW_TOOLBAR, m_wndToolBar); 

RepositionBars(0,0xFFFF,IDC_TREE_CLASS_VIEW); 

void CProfStudioClassView::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) 
    {
        CExtResizableDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
        RepositionBars(0,0xFFFF,IDC_TREE_CLASS_VIEW);
    }
