Toolbar and Tearoff toolbars

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi everyone,
I have a toolbar, and one of the items is a tearoff item, (once pressed it will display a tearoff toolbar). I am using that for drawing tools, and the tearoff has the different tools like, line, rect, arc, ellipse, and so on. 
What I want to do is to change the icon in the main toolbar upon selection of one of the tools in the tearoff.  So, if the user selects line from the tearoff toolbar, I want to display that line icon as the main toolbars item icon, and once they select rectangle, display the rectangle icon in its place.
Does any one know how to that?

thanks in advance
Ali Rafiee

	ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID_BDR_POPUP, OnUpdateBorder) ... void CMainFrame::OnUpdateBorder(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) { pCmdUI->Enable(); CXTPControl* pControl = CXTPControl::FromUI(pCmdUI); pControl->SetIconId(m_nCurrentTool); }

	Thanks it worked great. Although I had to change the code a little . When I actually clicked on the toolbar icon itself the FromUI method returned a NULL so I had to check for a NULL control pointer before SetIconId!? Is that what should happen? Ali Rafiee
