Dear Support,


My CExtPopupMenuWnd code is below:



HMENU oMenu;
 
{
 
if((oMenu = LoadMenu(GlobalInstance,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_menuTpContextMenu)))!=NULL) //!Get the sub-menu.
CMenu menu;
menu.Attach(oMenu);
 
//!Use the Prof-uis menu class.
CExtPopupMenuWnd* pPopup =
pPopup->UpdateFromMenu(GetParent()->m_hWnd, &menu,
new CExtPopupMenuWnd;true, true, true);
 
//!Use the name of TP A for the header of this context menu.
pPopup->MenuCaptionTextSet(strTpA.c_str());
 
//!Put the name of TP B into the ’Transfer from’ and ’Transfer to’ commands.
string str = (boost::format(m_st.GetString( IDS_strTransferTo)) % strTpB).str();
pPopup->ItemSetPopupText(pPopup->ItemFindPosForCmdID(ID_TransferAtoB), str.c_str());
str = (boost::format(m_st.GetString( IDS_strTransferFrom)) % strTpB).str();
pPopup->ItemSetPopupText(pPopup->ItemFindPosForCmdID(ID_TransferBtoA), str.c_str());//!Show the menu
pPopup->TrackPopupMenu( TPM_CENTERALIGN | TPMX_NO_CMD_UI | TPMX_HIDE_KEYBOARD_ACCELERATORS, point.x, point.y);
 

This code gets me what I want except there is an empty column on the left side of the menu. How can I eliminate this feature. I tried SetLeftColumnWidth(0) and SetLeftColumnWidth(1) withoout luck.


Thanks,


Gil

The icon area on the left of a popup menu is a built-in menu part. You can re-paint it without painting anything on it. You should handle a CExtPopupMenuWnd::g_nMsgPopupDrawLeftArea registered message as it is demonstrated in the ProfUIS_Controls sample.
