Hi all,
Just come across the ribbons in the CommandBars, so far looks very easy to use
 
Have had a quick look through the forum and samples in the trial version, but can't seem to find any examples of the ribbon with xtpControlCustom.
 
Was wondering if it was possible to write a xtpControlCustom based upon a CDialog class.  I have a dialog that I would like to place in the ribbon bar.  Strange I know, but needs must..
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks

Hi,
 
Create Dialog template with Style - Child and Borders - None.
Create CMyDialog class based on template.
 
Add code:
 
 m_wndDialog.Create(CMyDialog::IDD, this);
 CXTPControlCustom* pControlCustom = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_wndDialog);
 pGroupTable->Add(pControlCustom, 0);

Thanks,
Got that working
 
I based the CMyDialog on a CDialog Class, I assume this was correct?
I notice a few problems:
  1. When I resize the main app, which resizes the ribbon bar, the dialog is flickering
  2. The Dialog doesn't seem to be applying the styles/themes colours.

Any Ideas?

 
Thanks

Hi,
 
1. Add
 

BOOL CMyDialog::OnInitDialog()
{
 CDialog::OnInitDialog();
 
 ModifyStyle(0, WS_CLIPCHILDREN|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS);
 
 return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control
               // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE
}
 
2. Catch WM_CTLCOLOR color.

Hi,
When you say Catch WM_CTLCOLOR, sorry what am I suppose to do with it..  Is there some functions that I can call to obtain the skin colours?
 
Sorry if I'm being dumb..
 
Thanks

I get the following error when I try this:
Error 1 error C2664: 'BOOL CDialog::Create(LPCTSTR,CWnd *)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from '' to 'LPCTSTR' c:\users\terry\documents\visual studio 2005\projects\alphabet names\cribbonformat.cpp 121 

CXTPControlPopup *pControlAddCustom = (CXTPControlPopup *)pRibbonGroup->Add( xtpControlPopup, ID_FORMAT_ADDCUSTOM );

pControlAddCustom->SetBeginGroup( TRUE );

m_AddCustomDlg.Create( CAddCustomDlg::IDD, this );

CXTPControlCustom *pControlCustom = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom( &m_AddCustomDlg );

pRibbonGroup->Add( pControlCustom, 0 );

 
Any ideas, cheers
 
Thank you,

Hi,
 
Just tried in our sample this code:
 
 CXTPControlPopup* pControlPaste = (CXTPControlPopup*)pGroupClipborad->Add(xtpControlSplitButtonPopup, ID_EDIT_PASTE);
 

 m_AddCustomDlg.Create( CAddCustomDlg::IDD, this );
 
 CXTPControlCustom* pControlCustom = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom( &m_AddCustomDlg );
 
 (CXTPControlCustom*)pControlPaste->GetCommandBar()->GetControls()->Add(pControlCustom);
 
Works fine.
