The ::AfxRepositionWindow() API is used by child windows of the MFC frame window to take up some parts of frame side by side. The rest free space in the center is automatically used by a window with the dialog control identifier equal to AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST. This is a view window in SDI frames and an MDI client area window (dark gray window, parent for MDI child frames) in MDI frames. The ::AfxRepositionWindow() API is typically used by MFC/Prof-UIS control bars to take up some parts of the frame window. But it’s possible to make any kind of window to occupy the required space inside the MFC frame window or even any other window.

Some more details. When the windows inside the frame window or other window should be repositioned, the CFrameWnd::RecalcLayout() method is invoked in the case of frame windows and the CWnd::RepositionBars() method is invoked in the case of any other windows. In fact, invocation of the CFrameWnd::RecalcLayout(); code is the same as invocation of the CWnd::RepositionBars( 0, 0xFFFF, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST ); code. So, the CWnd::RepositionBars() method walks through all the child windows which have dialog control identifiers in the specified range (0 ... 0xFFFF). The CWnd::RepositionBars() method can be used for repositioning child windows or only for computing the free central space. It sends the WM_SIZEPARENT message (internal message in MFC) to all the enumerated child windows and each child window handles it. You can see how this message is handled by Prof-UIS classes. For instance, the CExtTabWnd tab window handles this message in the CExtTabWnd::OnSizeParent() method and that is why MDI tabs are able to occupy the required space inside the MDI frame window. The CExtTabWnd control is able to take up the part of its parent window on left/right or at top/bottom. You can code your own window and it can be derived from any class. You window class should handle the WM_SIZEPARENT message in the same way as the CExtTabWnd::OnSizeParent() method does. Please note, the position of the window which handles the WM_SIZEPARENT message is also dependent on its Z-order.

Even some more examples. Several dialog classes in the <span class="newgreen">ProfUIS_Controls</a> sample application use the CWnd::RepositionBars() method in order to place child control bar windows near the dialog border. The CExtPropertyGridCtrl class works like an MFC frame window: the combo box bar, a toolbar and a help tip bar inside it are repositioned using the CWnd::RepositionBars() method. All CExtGridWnd-derived classes in Prof-UIS implementing grid controls also work like MFC frames and toolbar windows created as grid children will be repositioned for occupying required space near grid window borders. Even the CExtScrollBar windows created inside the CExtGridWnd window are moved to required scrollbar locations near grid borders using the WM_SIZEPARENT message and the CWnd::RepositionBars() method.

I have a tab control in a dialog, and in the resource editor, the tab control width is exactly as the dialog’s width.

I use anchor in my dialog (CExtNCW<CExtResizableDialog>) so that the width of the tab will stay with the dialog’s width:

    AddAnchor(m_ctrlTab,        __RDA_KEEP,    __RDA_XY);

Thank you for reporting this issue. It is now:

We can provide you with the udapte on your request.

There is a similar functionality for arrow keys. You can turned it on by applying __EGWS_BSE_WALK to your grid. But if you need to make it work for the VK_RETURN key, you should implement it yourself. Please take a look at the CExtGridInplaceEdit::WindowProc() method and analyze the following code snippet. It implements moving to the next cell when the arrow key is pressed.

            LRESULT lResult = 0L;

            }
            return lResult;
} // if( bTranslate )

case VK_RETURN: 

I have a grid with 4 rows visible, and 5 rows in total.

The height of the grid is set so that exactly 4 rows are displayed.

When rows 1-4 are displayed, and I click on row 4, the grid scroll down to show row 5, which it should not.

I found that this happens if I show exactly 4 row, if I add even one row of pixel below the 4th row, it does not jump, as you can see in this zoomed in screen-shot.

Can you please make it more precise to the pixel level?

Thanks,

Ron.

We suppose you have a m_wndBar control bar and a m_wndInBarEdit scrollable window in your main frame class:

class CMainFrame : . . .
{
. . .
      CExtControlBar m_wndBar;
      CExtEdit m_wndInBarEdit;
. . .

      CExtNCSB < CExtEdit > m_wndInBarEdit;

CMainFrame::CMainFrame()
      : m_wndInBarEdit( true, true ) // THIS LINE WAS ADDED
{
      . . .

Dear Support,

If the grid has focus or not, the color of the cells should remain the same. This is a bug that I reported a while ago. Let me explain again:

1) Create a dialog with a grid and an button (don’t implement any handler to the button - this is dummy button).

2) Create a CExtGridCellComboBox.

3) Add items to it, each one with a different color using SetItemTextColor.

4) Run the application

5) Select an item in the cell’s combo-box drop list (the colored item should appear in the cell)

6) click on the dummy button.

What you will see is that the combo-box lost its color. if you don’t do step 6, the color remains. The bug is when the grid loses its focus, and the focus cell is a cell mentioned.

The concept you suggested in 1 is not good enough. I must have a simple way to move the slider back to the center of the slider. What you suggest, which is making it have less values it not good enough. My slider is a dimmer, which makes the display lighter or darker, so it must have a high resolution, but must have some way of making the dimmer go back to the default light.

I have a docked bar, double-click on its title bar floats it as it should. When I double-click again on the title bar it should dock back to where it was docked before, and it doesn’t.

Please fix.

Thanks,

Ron.

We just want to notify you that this issue is confirmed and we are working on it.

Thanks!

Hello - can you please confirm this bug?

Fixed, please update the source code for the following method:

                  bNeedRepaint = true;

Dear Support,

There is a repeated problem in 2.83 regarding the line at the end of the right most column when the right most column fits all the way to the right of the grid, using ExtentPercentSet, this separator line should not be visible.

When I reported this in the past, you removed this last separator line completely, which was wrong, as for other grids this line should be there.

What I suggest that there will be some API of style weather to dispplay or hide the separator line on the last grid column’s row header, so that a user will be able to remove it if not needed.

What do you say?

Thanks,

Ron.

We can see only one solution for this issue: reserve some space around page windows, paint it consistently with tab border and, optionally, repaint the background of page windows.

I would like to request a new Tab control style be added which enables the mouse wheel to scroll Tabs in CExtTabWnd and dervied classes, such as CExtTabMdiOneNoteWnd. Mozilla Firefox V2 has this capability and has  been requested by our users.

Thanks,

Neville http://blog.surfulater.com

I will check it with the MDI sample applications, and send you a sample application.

Thank you for reporting this issue. It’s noticeable only when the Obsidian style is applied where the separator text has not the same color as the tab margin text. The separator also has an incorrect position in the Blue and Gray themes but these themes have the tab border color same as the separator color and incorrect separator intersection with the tab is not visible. You can fix it by updating the CExtPaintManagerOffice2007_Impl::PaintTabItem() method:

Any ideas why it doesn’t work in a tree grid control with you above mentioned constrains?

There is a bug into ExtTabWnd. I insert into your example ProfUIS_Controls into the file PageTapWindow.cpp the following line:

CPageTabWindow::demo_items_data_t CPageTabWindow::g_ItemsData[] =

{

    { _T("&DevStudio"),               true  },

    { _T("4"),                        true  },



now look at the screen shots:

you can see that the text is not displayed for the second tab correctly. I think the rcEntireItem is to small. Please tell me where you calculate the rcEntireItem, so i can solve the problem. It’s very urgent for me.
