Hi,

How can i add or remove CExtControlBar buttons in the caption ?

I want to remove the autohide buttons in the CExtControlBar caption (prof-uis 252) and add some new buttons also.


Thanks

Any button in the caption of the control bar and floating toolbar is instance of a CExtBarNcAreaButton-derived class. It is initialized in the CExtControlBar::OnNcAreaButtonsReinitialize() virtual method which you can override in your CExtControlBar-derived class. Your class can create any of the default buttons and/or your custom buttons. The CMyTaskAreaBar::CBarNcTaskAreaBtn class in the MDI sample application can be used as an example of how this can be done. The Task Area bar implemented in the CMyTaskAreaBar class in this sample has custom caption buttons. You can also find custom caption buttons in the FixedSizePanels sample where the CMyResizableInFixedModeBar class uses CMyResizableInFixedModeBar::CNcBackForwardNavigationBtn buttons for navigating an Internet Explorer control inside a control bar.
