I am using customization in my application. However, I would like the "Large icons in toolbar" setting to map to a smaller size than doubling the icon size. How would I change it to map to say 1 1/2 times the regular icon size?

I have a set of small icons as well as a set of large icons with same identifiers. The large icons that I have are of size 24X24. With Prof UIS customization when I choose to display the toolbar icons in large size it displays them as 32X32. This makes the icons look ugly when scaled up from 16X16. How would I go about using my 24X24 large icons from the customize dialog box option to display as large icons on toolbar?

As we mentioned above, we will add this functionality soon so you can use this feature in your project just like you described this.

Dear Support,

This feature sound very useful - what version do you predict will include this feature?

Thanks,
Ron.

Where is this global variable declared?

We are sorry for this inaccuracy. In fact, this feature is not yet implemented but we can regard this as a feature request and implement it soon. We could implement this in the following way. There could be a global variable (e.g., of the float type ) that specifies the factor by which small icons will be scaled up. We could also add one more icon for each command. Such an icon could be then used in the big icon mode. Such approach makes this more flexible. If you do not have the second set of large icons, then small icons will just be scaled up by the above mentioned factor. If you set large icons, then they will be used instead and the toolbar height will be determined by the height of large icons. Please let us know if this could be suitable for you.

At the moment this works exactly as in Microsoft applications. You can however use another ratio by changing the properties of the CSize g_bigIconSize global variable, which is by default set to 32x32, for example:

g_bigIconSize.cx = 24;
g_bigIconSize.cy = 24;
