Discuss any Prof-UIS and GUI development-related issues

Can CExtWA be used with CFormView? i.e:

class CSampleView : public CExtWS < CExtWA < CExtAFV < CFormView > > > ??

I am trying to get a CExtTabPageContainerFlatWnd to consume all of the space occupied by the CFormView. It does resizes when the frame window is resized, but it does not use all the available space.

I am really not sure where to place the AddAnchor(...) function call, other than it cannot be placed in the CFormView::OnInitialUpdate()!

Using VC 7.1, with ProfUIS 2.54(full version)...

Here is what I am trying to do:

class CSampleView: public CExtWS < CExtWA < CExtAFV < CFormView > > >

{
protected: // create from serialization only
    CSampleView();
    DECLARE_DYNCREATE(CSampleView)

    CExtTabPageContainerFlatWnd m_wndTabPageContainerFlat;
    CExtResizableDialog m_wndDlg1, m_wndDlg2, m_wndDlg3;

public:
    enum{ IDD = IDD_SAMPLE_FORM };

// Attributes
public:
    CSampleDoc* GetDocument() const;

// Operations

// Overrides
    public:
virtual BOOL PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs);
protected:
    virtual void DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX); // DDX/DDV support
    virtual void OnInitialUpdate(); // called first time after construct

// Implementation

    virtual ~CSampleView();
#ifdef _DEBUG

I can send sample project and/or screen shots if necessary!!!
Thanks!
