Hi;
I've created a CXTPTaskPanel within a resizable dialog, that contains only one group. When the user resizes the dialog, I want the group to be resized too, so that the group occupies the whole task panel rect (minus any margins set). The width is resized automatically, but the height stays always the same!
Any hints on how to achieve this are welcome.

Hi,
Change its behaviour to xtpTaskPanelBehaviourToolbox. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Thanks Oleg, this works!
But now, where's the best place to size the dialog contained within the group, so that it spans the whole group client area?
In my CXTPTaskPanel parent class I do it like this:
if (_panel.GetSafeHwnd())
{
_panel.MoveWindow(rcClient);
CXTPTaskPanelGroup* pGroup=_panel.FindGroup(0);
if (pGroup!=0){
CXTPTaskPanelPaintManager* pPainter=_panel.GetPaintManager();
CRect rcGrpClient=pGroup->GetClientRect();
CRect rcMargins=pPainter->GetGroupInnerMargins(pGroup);
rcGrpClient.DeflateRect(rcMargins.left, rcMargins.top, rcMargins.right, rcMargins.bottom);
_taskDlg.MoveWindow(rcGrpClient);
}
}
But this leads to some unwanted flickering - I believe that the task panel first (re)sizes the dialog to its initial size as set in .rc file and then my code is executed.
Any ideas? ------------- Martin Product: Xtreme Toolkit v 19.0.0, new Projects v 19.1.0 Platform: Windows 10 v 1909 (64bit) Language: VC++ 2017 |

Hi Oleg;
I solved it myself. I knew the CXTPTaskPanelItem::SetSize(..,AutoHeight) function but I forgot to call it.
Nevertheless thanks for a great product! ------------- Martin Product: Xtreme Toolkit v 19.0.0, new Projects v 19.1.0 Platform: Windows 10 v 1909 (64bit) Language: VC++ 2017 |
