Hello.

I carry out the following order.

void CMuPropertyGridWnd::BestFitColumnAll()

{

    int iRec;

    for ( iRec = 0 ; iRec < ColumnCountGet() ; iRec++ ){

        BestFitColumn( iRec );

    }

}

It is not done Fit well.

")" is not displayed.

Hello.

Two AB docking bars are united.

I can float an A docking bar.

And,

The B docking bar wants to follow it, too.

Hello.

With a property grid, I want to change the back color of this point.

http://www.tok2.com/home/ifreeta/20080324/image02.jpg

 

Dear Support,

I tried to use this paint manager, and I see that most UI components do not egt skinned, for example the scroll-bars looks like windows 2000, the non-client of a dialog remain in their dull XP look.

Is this the way it should look, or should I do something beside calling:

 

g_PaintManager.InstallPaintManager(RUNTIME_CLASS(CExtPaintManagerStudio2008));

Thanks,

Ron.

Hello.

I want to acquire double type.

I do such how to use.

Does not how to use have any problem?

double CPKD_PropertyNunoKisoInp1Dlg::_Henshin()

{

 CExtGridCellNumber * pCellNumber =

  (CExtGridCellNumber *)m_pActPGC->PropertyBodyGridCell( m_pPI_Offset );

 return pCellNumber->dblVal;  ?

}

Note it is better to access a pCellNumber->dblVal value using the following code:

V_R8( pCellNumber );

Dear Support,

When I set these two together, I though that the selecetd bxo would extend untill the right side of the window, but it doesn’t, it ends at the right most cell.

Can you implemented this feature? I think it is required...

Thanks,

Ron.

Dear Support,

Let me know if it is clear now - the first line is selected, and the blue selection ends at the last cell:

Dear Support,

I have a tree control in which I have several root items, each have sub-items. I use ItemHide to show/hide some of these sub-items.

I see that after I hide some nodes and show them again, they are displayed in the wrong place in the tree, and the tree is completly messed up.

Please verify and fix.

Thanks,

Ron.

We are working on the fix for item hiding algorithm

Good to know that you’re alive

You can see how tree item hiding is used in the tree filtering algorithm in the FilteredGrids sample. We do not see any problems with the tree structure there. If the ItemHide() can damage tree data, then we need some code or a test project which reproduces this problem.

Dear Support,

I sent you a sample application, all I ask is that you’ll let me know that you received it... I guess this is too much to ask.

Maybe today you will do me the honor and let me know that you received it?

Ron.

Dear Support,

I managed to create a sample application that re-produces the bug. Please let me know that you received it. Below is the output I get when I run the application and do two simple steps that I explained you in the mail:

Dear Support,

I get assent in the tree control in this place:




void CExtTreeGridCellNode::TreeNodeHiddenSet(
    CExtTreeGridDataProvider & _DP,
    bool bHide
    )
{
    ASSERT_VALID( this );
    ASSERT_VALID( (&_DP) );
    ASSERT_KINDOF( CExtTreeGridDataProvider, (&_DP) );
bool bHidden = TreeNodeHiddenGet();
    if( ( bHidden && bHide ) || ( (!bHidden) && (!bHide) ) )
        return;
    if( bHide )
    {
        if( TreeNodeIsDisplayed() )
        {
            ULONG nOffset = TreeNodeCalcOffset( true, false );
            if( nOffset != ULONG(-1L) )
            {
                ASSERT( _DP.m_arrGridVis[ nOffset ] == this ); <=== HERE


Sometimes I get this assert, and sometimes not.

Can you please explain why this happens? If I ignore the assert, the whole structure of the tree is messed up...

Thanks,

Ron.

Dear Support Team,

I would like to add a graphical meter in CExtStatusControlBar.

1) How can I do it initially?

2) How can I update this with another image afterwards?

Thanks a lot.

Yes. And I’ve found the following tutorial helpful:

I am using SetButtonCtrl to put a combo box onto a toolbar.  This is fine, it works.  However, when the user brings up the customize dialog a placeholder icon is used (just a square), and if the user drags that to a toolbar, that’s all that appears in the toolbar as well.

1) How do I make the new user button into a combo box?  (Is there a message telling me the user has dragged a button to a toolbar, is a callback utilized in this case, etc.?)

2) Can the customize dialog show the combo box instead of the icon?

 

Thanks,

Hi,

I have just tracked down a somewhat puzzling problem.

I found some code in a handler of an ON_BN_CLICKED being called from within itself.

I traced this down to a call to CExtSlider::SetBkColor().

The call stack shows

  ProfUIS283md.dll!CExtSliderWnd::SetBkColor(unsigned long clrBk=2162687)  Line 89 C++

calls:

 ProfUIS283md.dll!CExtSliderWnd::UpdateSliderWnd()  Line 472 + 0xc bytes C++

the line is:

::SetFocus( hWndOwn );

and this seems to trigger an ON_BN_CLICKED.

Do you have any ideas why this is?

Hello.

Only a domain surrounded with red wants to perform screen update.
http://www.yukai.jp/~ifreeta/20080319/image20.jpg

Thanks,

We have provided you with several answers today. We described in details how to modify property values and update them in the property grid control without complete rescanning of the property store.

Hello.

With indirect cell pCellNumber, I want to change only the following item to 100.
http://www.yukai.jp/~ifreeta/20080319/image20.jpg

    CExtPropertyItem * pShitenX = new CExtPropertyValue( _T( m_csName_ShitenX ) );
    pCellNumber = STATIC_DOWNCAST( CExtGridCellNumber,
        pShitenX->ValueDefaultGetByRTC( RUNTIME_CLASS(CExtGridCellNumber) ));
    pCellNumber->_VariantAssign( 0.00 );
    pCellNumber->SetAutoNumDigits( true );

Please teach it.

Hello.

I acquire a cell in the property grid directly and operate it.
http://www.yukai.jp/~ifreeta/20080319/image10.jpg

CExtGridCell * CMuPropertyGridCtrl::SelectGridCell( CString csFind )
{
int iRow;

    CTypedPtrArray < CPtrArray, CExtPropertyGridWnd * > arrGrids;
    OnPgcQueryGrids( arrGrids );
    if ( arrGrids.GetSize() <= 0 ){
        ASSERT(0);
        return NULL;
    }
    CExtPropertyGridWnd * pGrid = arrGrids[ 0 ];
    CString csDst;

    for ( iRow = 0 ; iRow < pGrid->RowCountGet() ; iRow++){
        CExtPropertyGridCellArea * pCell =
            (CExtPropertyGridCellArea *)pGrid->GridCellGet( 0 , iRow , 0 , 0 );
        pCell->TextGet(csDst);
        if ( csFind == csDst){
            return pGrid->GridCellGet( 1 , iRow , 0 , 0 );
        }
    }
}


However, I cannot acquire a cell when a property grid was closed.

I want to acquire a cell then.

Hello.

When I carry out PropertyStoreSynchronize
Scroll is updated at the midway point of the position.

http://www.yukai.jp/~ifreeta/20080319/image01.jpg

Will not the screen update be possible in the state that fixed a scroll position?

Or,
I acquire a scroll position beforehand.
After property screen update
I want to set a scroll position

Thanks,

The CExtPropertyGridCtrl::PropertyStoreSynchronize() method completely rebuilds the content of the tree grid windows inside the property store. This method is needed when the tree structure of your property store changes seriously: the number of properties and/or categories were changed, names of properties and/or categories were changed. If your code changes the active grid cell of some property value only, then you can avoid invoking the CExtPropertyGridCtrl::PropertyStoreSynchronize() method and synchronize one property value only:

CExtPropertyGridCtrl * pPGC = . . .
CExtPropertyValue * pPV = . . .
CExtGridCell * pCellSrc = pPV->ValueActiveGet();
     ASSERT_VALID( pCellSrc );

// We assume your code will change
// the active grid cell inside pPV
// (which is pCellSrc) here.

CTypedPtrArray < CPtrArray, CExtPropertyGridWnd * > arrGrids;
       pPGC->OnPgcQueryGrids( arrGrids );
INT nGridIdx = 0;
       for( ; nGridIdx < arrGrids.GetSize(); nGridIdx ++ )
       {
                 CExtPropertyGridWnd * pGrid = arrGrids[ nGridIdx ];
                 ASSERT_VALID( pGrid );
                 // Get HTREEITEM handle which corresponds to
                 // the pPV property value:
                 HTREEITEM hTreeItem = pGrid->PropertyItemToTreeItem( pPV );
                 if( hTreeItem == NULL )
                         continue;
                 // Get the destination grid cell which is cloned from
                 // the active cell of the pPV property value:
                 CExtGridCell * pCellDst = pGrid->ItemGetCell( hTreeItem, 1 );
                 if( pCellDst == NULL )
                         continue;
                 ASSERT_VALID( pCellDst );
                 // Update destination grid cell’s value:
                 pCellDst->Assign( *pCellSrc );
                 // Repaint required part of the tree grid:
                 if( ! pGrid->IsWindowVisible() )
                         continue;
                 LONG nRowNo = pGrid->ItemGetVisibleIndexOf( hTreeItem );
                 if( nRowNo < 0 )
                         continue;
                 CRect rc;
                 if( pGrid->GridCellRectsGet(
                                   1,
                                   nRowNo,
                                   0,
                                   0,
                                   NULL,
                                   &rc
                                   )
                         )
                 {
                         CRect rcClient;
                         pGrid->GetClientRect( &rcClient );
                         rc.left = rcClient.left;
                         rc.right = rcClient.right;
                         pGrid->InvalidateRect( &rc );
                 }
       }

Hello.

Only in InvalidateRect, there was time when it was not updated immediately.

So I carried out pGrid->UpdateWindow.

pGrid->InvalidateRect( &rc );

pGrid->UpdateWindow();

Is there a problem?

 

We have several control dialogs that are derived from CExtControlBar. The problem is that if these dialogs are floating instead of docked, they show up in the list of windows given by alt-tab in vista (or by using the "alt-tab replacement" powertoy - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx).

The usual method of solving this is to give the control bar the WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW extended style, but that doesn’t work because in CExtDockMiniFrameWnd::OnWindowPosChanging the extended styles defined by:

#define __REMOVED_STYLES_EXTENDED (WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW|WS_EX_STATICEDGE|WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE|WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME)

are always removed from the window.

Is there a reason that WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW has to be removed, or some other way to remove a toolwindow from the alt-tab list?

I would appreciate any help you could give.

Please put these two small modifications into the ../Prof-UIS/Src/ExtMiniDockFrameWnd.cpp file:

1) Find the following lines near beginning of this file:

#define __REMOVED_STYLES_EXTENDED \
      (WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW|WS_EX_STATICEDGE|WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE|WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME)

and replace with the following lines:

#define __REMOVED_STYLES_EXTENDED \
      (WS_EX_STATICEDGE|WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE|WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME)

2) Update the source code of the CExtMiniDockFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow() method:

BOOL CExtMiniDockFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow( CREATESTRUCT & cs ) 
{
      if( ! CMiniDockFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
      {
            ASSERT( FALSE );
            return FALSE;
      }
      cs.dwExStyle |= WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW; // THIS LINE WAS ADDED
      cs.dwExStyle &= ~(WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL|WS_EX_RTLREADING);
      return TRUE;
}

Hello~ Support Sir~

Any body home ?

Could someone answer me ?! Please !!

Is it possible to set the color for a CExtButton?

You can override the following method in your CExtButton-derived class:

virtual CExtPaintManager * PmBridge_GetPM() const;

This method should return an instance of the required paint manager. The following template class is very handy and implements the virtual method meant above:

template < class _BT > class CExtPaintManagerCustomT : public _BT
{
public:
    CExtPaintManagerCustomT( CExtPaintManager * pCustomPM = NULL )
        : m_pCustomPM( NULL )
    {
        SetCustomPM( pCustomPM );
    }
    ~CExtPaintManagerCustomT()
    {
        if( m_pCustomPM != NULL )
            delete m_pCustomPM;
        m_pCustomPM = NULL;
    }
    CExtPaintManager * GetCustomPM() const
    {
        return m_pCustomPM;
    }
    bool SetCustomPM( CExtPaintManager * pCustomPM = NULL )
    {
        if( m_pCustomPM != NULL )
        {
            if( pCustomPM == m_pCustomPM )
                return false;
            if( m_pCustomPM != NULL )
            {
                delete m_pCustomPM;
                m_pCustomPM = NULL;
            }
        }
        if( pCustomPM == NULL )
        {
            m_pCustomPM = new __DEFAULT_PAINT_MANAGER_CLASS;
            if(    ! m_pCustomPM->IsKindOf( RUNTIME_CLASS( CExtPaintManager ) ) )
            {
                ASSERT( FALSE );
                return false;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            m_pCustomPM = pCustomPM;
        }
        m_pCustomPM->SyncSysColors();
        m_pCustomPM->InitTranslatedColors();
        m_pCustomPM->InitHelperBrushes();
        return true;
    }
    bool SetCustomPM( CRuntimeClass * pRTCCustomPM )
    {
        if( pRTCCustomPM == NULL )
            return SetCustomPM( (CExtPaintManager *)NULL );
        CObject * pObj = pRTCCustomPM->CreateObject();
        if( pObj == NULL )
        {
            ASSERT( FALSE );
            return false;
        }
        ASSERT_VALID( pObj );
        CExtPaintManager * pPaintManager = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST( CExtPaintManager, pObj );
        if( pPaintManager == NULL )
        {
            delete pObj;
            ASSERT( FALSE );
            return false;
        }
        return SetCustomPM( pPaintManager );
    }
    virtual CExtPaintManager * PmBridge_GetPM() const
    {
        CExtPaintManager * pPM = GetCustomPM();
        if( pPM != NULL )
            return pPM;
        else
            return _BT::PmBridge_GetPM();
    }
protected:
    CExtPaintManager * m_pCustomPM;
};

So, you should use the following button object:

CExtPaintManagerCustomT < CExtButton > m_wndButton;

And attach any required paint manager to it:

m_wndButton.SetCustomPM( RUNTIME_CLASS(CExtPaintManager) );

I’m using mainly the Office 2007 themes, and it is the button color rather than text color I want to change.

If SetBkColor() doesn’t work, what should I use instead?
