    Posted: 15 March 2004 at 5:19am

Hello

Does anybody have idea how to create a flat combobox in a command bar. The problem is that the standard flat combobox is not derived from CXTPControl class , but the Command bar shows only CXTPControl objects. I tried to use SetCommandBar method of the CXTPControlComboBox and as a parameter gave CXTPPopupBar object but the project crashes at run time. I hope there is a decision of that problem.

Thanks in advance!

Use this code :

//---------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------
int CMyFrame::OnCreateControl(LPCREATECONTROLSTRUCT lpCreateControl)
//---------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------
{
 if (lpCreateControl->bToolBar)
 {
  CXTPToolBar* pToolBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPToolBar, lpCreateControl->pCommandBar);
  if (!pToolBar)
   return FALSE;

  if (lpCreateControl->nID == ID_SORT_FIELDSPLACEHOLDER && pToolBar->GetBarID() == IDR_SORT)
  {  
   // create the Sortorders combo box.
   if (!m_wndComboSortOrders.Create( WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_VSCROLL|CBS_DROPDOWNLIST|WS_CLIPCHILD REN,
    CRect(0,0,200,200), this, ID_SORT_FIELDSPLACEHOLDER ))
   {
    XTRACE(0, "Failed to create sort orders  combo.\n");
    XTRACE(-1, _T("CUIChildFrame::OnCreateControl -> 0"));
    return FALSE;
   }

   m_wndComboSortOrders.SetFont(&xtAfxDat a.font);

   UpdateToolbarSortorders();

   CXTPControlCustom* pControl = (CXTPControlCustom*)CXTPControlCustom::CreateObject();
   pControl->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate) ;
   pControl->SetControl(&m_wndComboSor tOrders);

   lpCreateControl->pControl = pControl;
   return TRUE;

...

CXTFlatComboBox  m_wndComboSortOrders;

Hope this helps :-)

Hi,

I have created CXTFontCombo in toolbar using CXTPControlCustom

But CXTFontCombo's SetListStyle(xtFontBoth) method is not working ? It always shows like 'xtFontGUI'

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Oleg , Sorry for not explaining my problem clearly

Already I have gone through the examples you've mentioned
but those examples make use of CXTPControlFontComboBox

But i am porting an application that uses the old CXTFontCombo
(with some code customization in the control itself )
I'm trying to add the same old CXTFontCombo through CXTPControlCustom
in the CommandBar so i can make use of my old message handler code without any changes.

i can change the view font through CXTFontCombo in CommandBar but

m_wndComboFont.SetListStyle(xtFontBoth);

is not working ???

thanks for spending your valuable time

Hi,

The DrawItem of CXTFontCombo is not called when we put it in CommandBar using CXTPControlCustom

It's working correctly when fontcombo is in Dialog (FontCombo Sample)

any suggestion???

Hello,

The problem that you reported with the combo box has been corrected with v9.81 release.

Regards,
Codejock Support

Is it possible to use owner drawn CXTFontCombo in mainframe commandbar in 9.81 Pro ?
