In the picture below I am failing to have the controls in the second toolbar change width when I change the captions, the captions can change dynamically. This is a modeless dialog.

In another situation where I have a dialog which can be resized as a child of a CFormView I do not have this problem with a toolbar with the same captions. As far as I can tell I have identical code.

The widths you see are based on the caption defined for the toolbar in Visual Studio (the Prompt field).

How do I force a toolbar to resize the controls based on the caption text?

I confused myself badly and ended up chasing my tail through the Codejock sources.

Many thanks, Simon

Hello,
 
In Dialog case when caption changed, Toolbar sends WM_SIZE to dialog to allow reposition self.
 
Call RepositionBars(AFX_IDW_CONTROLBAR_FIRST, AFX_IDW_CONTROLBAR_LAST, 0);
in OnSize handler of your dialog.

Thanks - works great.

Being a modeless non-resizable dialog I didn't have a WM_SIZE handler.

Cheers,
