Hi;
I did it this way in my OnSize() handler:

CMyWnd::OnSize(...) {
    CWnd::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
    CXTPClientRect rcClient(this);
    if (cx>0 || cy>0) {
        RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, 0, 0, &rcClient);
        RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, reposQuery, &rcClient, &rcClient);
    }
    if (tree_.GetSafeHwnd()!=0) {    // This is my only child
        tree_.MoveWindow(rcClient);
    }
}

Hi,

You have manually reposition all child controls.

Hi Oleg,

I've been able to make my CMenu appear. Thanks for your help! I still have one problem though. The rest of my program doesn't seem to realize that the menubar is there... After window creation i use

pSubMenu->LoadMenu(&menu);
pSubMenu->RefreshMenu();
RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, reposDefault);

to insert the menu into the panel.

The menubar is added, but not like a standard menubar. I'd expected the menubar to be placed above the panel, instead of inside it. Now, our own grid is drawn above it. This means that hovering the mouse near coordinate 0,0 of the panel makes a menuitem 'appear' over our grid, and clicking it causes the entire menubar to be redrawn over the grid.

How do i make the menu behave like a 'normal' menu?

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Thanks Oleg! That was just what I needed to make it work. The heroesView.cpp file was very helpful.

Great support!

Hi,

See code of Samples\ToolkitPro\Advanced\HeroesView.cpp

you need derive from CXTPCommandBarsSiteBase to add InitCommandBars or GetCommandBars methods.

Hi Oleg,

I still seem to be hitting a brick wall. Perhaps I'm missing something here...

I'm trying to add the CXTPMenuBar to a CWnd derived panel, not CFrameWnd (or CXTFrameWnd). As such, functions like InitCommandBars or GetCommandBars won't work.

Does the window have to be CFrameWnd derived, or is CWnd derived enough?

Hi,

Yes, you can add CXTPMenuBar. See DialogSample or GUI_VisualStudio, with same methods you can add menu for any window.

Hi!

I've been experimenting with MFC and Codejock for a while now, and ran into a little trouble. I've got a CWnd derived panel on my SDI application, and I'd like to a menu to it. I've tried to add it using MFC's CWnd::SetMenu, and found out that the function fails, since the panel is created with windowstyle WS_CHILD. GetLastError then produces "Child windows cannot have menus."

Can I use Codejock to add the menu? if i add a CXTPMenuBar to my CWnd panel, can i use CJ to load and set the menu?

Thanks!

Bob
