From the SymbolReference.chm:

Width Property
Description
Gets / Sets the width of the toolbar when it is floating, displayed as a popup, or a mini toolbar.

Syntax (Visual Basic)
Public Property Width() As Long


What is the unit the width is measured with? Pixels? Number of buttons? Furlongs?

I am trying to set the width of a floating toolbar using "buttons" as the unit, as in "I would like my toolbar to be 3 buttons wide". 


pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, nAction, "");

cntrlWidth = pControl->GetWidth();


cntrlWidth == 0.
How can I determine how wide, in pixels, a "3 button wide" toolbar is?

Hi,

It doesn't look like ActiveX code :)
 
GetWidth return "user" width. You nede call GetSize to get actual width or just use Width = (22 * 3 + border_width)

Thanks for the reply.

Just to clarify, did you mean use the GetRect() method? There is no Size property on the CommandBarControl object...

Nope, that's not the happenin' thing, either:
pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, nAction, "");
pControl->GetRect(&left, &top, &right, &bottom);

left, top, right, bottom all equal 0.

Quote Width = (22 * 3 + border_width)

Will '22' change, depending on whether large or small icons are used?
Where does border_width come from? 

     HWND hwnd = (HWND) pToolbar->GethWnd();

     wi.cbSize = sizeof(WINDOWINFO);

     GetWindowInfo(hwnd,  &wi);

Surprisingly, all the size fields, such as cxWindowBorders, are 0...

(I confirmed with Spy++ that the hwnd variable is indeed the toolbar's HWND.)

Any idea why pControl->GetRect(&a, &b, &c, &d) fills all params with 0?

"make screenshot and calculate" is hard to do at runtime...

From the WTL Sample shipped with v12.1.0: 

m_spCommandBars->LoadDesignerBars(_variant_t((long)IDR_COMMANDBARS), _variant_t((long)_Module.m_hInstResource));



m_spCommandBars->LoadCommandBars(_bstr_t("Codejock Software ActiveX Demos"), _bstr_t("WTLSample"), _bstr_t("Layout"));



m_spCommandBars->ScaleMode = XtremeCommandBars::xtpScalePixel;

// My additions to test GetRect().

ICommandBar * pBar;

long cnt;

pBar = m_spCommandBars->GetItem(2);





ICommandBarControl * pControl;

ICommandBarControls * pControls = pBar->GetControls();

cnt = pControls->GetCount();



long t, l, b, r;

for (int j = 1; j <= cnt; ++j) {

     pControl = pControls->GetItem(j);

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

       // l = 10, t = 2, r = 32, b = 24

     // l & r increment by 22, as expected

}

pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, 101, "Hi");

if (0 != pControl) {

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

}

// l = t = r = b = 0



pControl = pControls->Find(xtpControlButton, 101);

if (0 != pControl) {

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

}

// l = t = r = b = 0

Frustrating.

Hi,
 
After you add button Add
m_spCommandBars->RecalcLayout();
to allow commandbars reclculate positions of new controls.
