Hi,

I'm adding a pane to my status bar:


StatusBarPane myPane = _commandBars.StatusBar.AddPane( MY_ID );

myPane.IconIndex = MY_ID_ICON;

myPane.Button = true;

_commandBars.StatusBar.PaneClick += new IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler( OnStatusBarPaneClick );

And then I have:


void OnStatusBarPaneClick( StatusBarPane pane )

{

    pane.Checked = !pane.Checked;

}

The pane gets added and all, but I never get the PaneClick event...

I'm using C#, .NET 2.0, VS 2008, CommandBars v 13.1, Win XP 64 bit but my app is 32 bit.

Best,
Michal

Seriously, no one is going to answer this question?

So why exactly have we renewed our license recently???

Hi,

I'm not familiar with C# but I looked at a sample (C# StatusBar sample)

StatusBar = CommandBars.StatusBar; //using Commandbars statusbar?

StatusBar.PaneClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneClickEvent);

private void StatusBar_PaneClickEvent(XtremeCommandBars.StatusBarPane e)

{

.....}

I'm also disappointed that no one replied on this, looks like an easy question (if you are using C#) You better look at the StatusBar sample that comes with the install

Yeah, actually I tried it again, and it works. The only thing I changed, I think, was the ID of the pane...

Anyway, thanks Aaron!

Hi again,

Actually, it still doesn't work. I get the event immediately after the application loads, but once I load some data, the event stops being fired. I've searched through my code, but the only thing the action of loading data does is to change the text of another status bar pane. Even if I comment out the code that changes the text, the event still does not get fired.

Help, anyone? What could be causing the event to stop firing?

If this is MDI, be sure you do this:

            foreach (Control ctrl in this.Controls)
            {
                if (ctrl is MdiClient)
                {
                    CommandBars.SetMDIClient(ctrl.Handle.ToInt32());
                }
            }

Then add status bar:

public XtremeCommandBars.StatusBar StatusBar;

            StatusBar = CommandBars.StatusBar;
            StatusBar.PaneClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneClickEvent);
            StatusBar.PaneDblClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneDblClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneDblClickEvent);
            StatusBar.MouseDown += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_MouseDownEventHandler(this.StatusBar_MouseDownEvent);
            CommandBars.StatusBar.Visible = true;

Then add some pane:

            XtremeCommandBars.StatusBarPane Pane;

            Pane = StatusBar.AddPane(0);
            Pane.Style = XtremeCommandBars.XTPStatusPaneStyle.SBPS_STRETCH | XtremeCommandBars.XTPStatusPaneStyle.SBPS_NOBORDERS;
            Pane.Text = "Ready";
            Pane.Width = 0; //Auto Size

        private void StatusBar_PaneClickEvent(XtremeCommandBars.StatusBarPane e)
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine ("PaneClick. Id = " + e.Id);
        }

Hi,

No, it's not MDI. We are using DockingPane with a single document window (and many additional panes). Also, we load the command bars like this:

_commandBars.LoadDesignerBars( null, null );

DesignerBars should make no difference, so you have all the code I posted in that same order, except the for each?

Do you have this set after you add your status bar? Do you create the panes after the commandbars?

DockingPaneManager.SetCommandBars (CommandBars.GetDispatch());

My order is different:

_commandBars.LoadDesignerBars( null, null );
_commandBars.StatusBar.Visible = true;
_commandBars.StatusBar.AddPane( 0 );
_commandBars.StatusBar.PaneClick += OnStatusBarPaneClick;

If I move the event assignment up (before setting Visible) it is even worse, i.e. the event doesn't get fired even before a document is loaded.

My panes are created and initialized AFTER the bars.

Michal

Please add code exactly as I put in previous threads and in this order:

public XtremeCommandBars.StatusBar StatusBar;

_CommandBars.LoadDesignerBars( null, null );

StatusBar = _CommandBars.StatusBar;
StatusBar.PaneClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneClickEvent);
_CommandBars.StatusBar.Visible = true;

XtremeCommandBars.StatusBarPane Pane;
Pane = _commandBars.StatusBar.AddPane( 0 );

        private void StatusBar_PaneClickEvent(XtremeCommandBars.StatusBarPane e)
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine ("PaneClick. Id = " + e.Id);
        }

No luck.

Here's my code:

            _commandBars.LoadDesignerBars( null, null );

            // Status bar setup.
            StatusBar statusBar = _commandBars.StatusBar;
            statusBar.PaneClick += OnStatusBarPaneClick;
            statusBar.Visible = true;

            statusBar.AddPane( 0 );

            StatusBarPane pane = statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_DATA_TYPE );
            pane.Width = mainForm.StatusBarInfoPaneWidth;
            pane.Alignment = XTPTextAlignment.xtpAlignmentRight;
            pane.Text = string.Empty;

            statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_INDICATOR_CAPS );
            statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_INDICATOR_NUM );
            statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_INDICATOR_SCRL );

            StatusBarPane plotCreationPane = statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_DEBUG_PLOT_CREATION );
            plotCreationPane.IconIndex = ID.CMD_DEBUG_PLOT_CREATION;
            plotCreationPane.Button = true;
            StatusBarPane dumpBeforePane = statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_DEBUG_DUMP_BEFORE );
            dumpBeforePane.IconIndex = ID.CMD_DEBUG_DUMP_BEFORE;
            dumpBeforePane.Button = true;
            StatusBarPane dumpAfterPane = statusBar.AddPane( ID.PANE_DEBUG_DUMP_AFTER );
            dumpAfterPane.IconIndex = ID.CMD_DEBUG_DUMP_AFTER;
            dumpAfterPane.Button = true;

            SetChecked( ID.CMD_VIEW_STATUS_BAR, true );
            SetChecked( ID.CMD_VIEW_TOOLBAR, true );

            commandBars.GlobalSettings.App = mainForm;

And then:

        void OnStatusBarPaneClick( StatusBarPane pane )
        {
            pane.Checked = !pane.Checked;

            if( pane.Id == ID.PANE_DEBUG_PLOT_CREATION )
            {
               // ...
            }
        }

Actually, that still isn't my code ;)

Notice where I declare Statusbar....I assumed the Public keyword would have given that away. You are re-declaring locally so it can't work.

    public class frmMain : System.Windows.Forms.Form
    {
        public AxXtremeCommandBars.AxCommandBars CommandBars;
        private AxXtremeCommandBars.AxImageManager ImageManager;
        static public frmMain Instance;
        public XtremeCommandBars.StatusBar StatusBar;

......

Also the pane click handler is not as I wrote:

StatusBar.PaneClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneClickEvent);

If you can't figure it out just attach the project and I'll fix it for you.

Hi,

StatusBar.PaneClick += new XtremeCommandBars.IStatusBarEvents_PaneClickEventHandler(this.StatusBar_PaneClickEvent);

and

StatusBar.PaneClick += StatusBar_PaneClickEvent;

are the same in C#.

But the trick with using a class member instead of a local variable worked! Can you explain this to me? Normally it should matter at all if it is one or the other... But maybe OCX are special...

Michal
