From the WTL Sample shipped with v12.1.0:


m_spCommandBars->LoadDesignerBars(_variant_t((long)IDR_COMMANDBARS), _variant_t((long)_Module.m_hInstResource));



m_spCommandBars->LoadCommandBars(_bstr_t("Codejock Software ActiveX Demos"), _bstr_t("WTLSample"), _bstr_t("Layout"));



m_spCommandBars->ScaleMode = XtremeCommandBars::xtpScalePixel;

// My additions to test GetRect().

ICommandBar * pBar;

long cnt;

pBar = m_spCommandBars->GetItem(2);





ICommandBarControl * pControl;

ICommandBarControls * pControls = pBar->GetControls();

cnt = pControls->GetCount();



long t, l, b, r;

for (int j = 1; j <= cnt; ++j) {

     pControl = pControls->GetItem(j);

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

       // l = 10, t = 2, r = 32, b = 24

     // l & r increment by 22, as expected

}

pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, 101, "Hi");

if (0 != pControl) {

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

}

// l = t = r = b = 0



pControl = pControls->Find(xtpControlButton, 101);

if (0 != pControl) {

     pControl->GetRect(&l,  &t,  &r,  &b);

}

// l = t = r = b = 0

Frustrating.

Any idea why pControl->GetRect(&a, &b, &c, &d) fills all params with 0?

Width = (22 * 3 + border_width)

Will '22' change, depending on whether large or small icons are used?
Where does border_width come from?


     HWND hwnd = (HWND) pToolbar->GethWnd();

     wi.cbSize = sizeof(WINDOWINFO);

     GetWindowInfo(hwnd,  &wi);

Surprisingly, all the size fields, such as cxWindowBorders, are 0...

(I confirmed with Spy++ that the hwnd variable is indeed the toolbar's HWND.)

Thanks for the reply.

Just to clarify, did you mean use the GetRect() method? There is no Size property on the CommandBarControl object...

Nope, that's not the happenin' thing, either:
pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, nAction, "");
pControl->GetRect(&left, &top, &right, &bottom);

left, top, right, bottom all equal 0.

Hi,

It doesn't look like ActiveX code :)

GetWidth return "user" width. You nede call GetSize to get actual width or just use Width = (22 * 3 + border_width)

I am trying to set the width of a floating toolbar using "buttons" as the unit, as in "I would like my toolbar to be 3 buttons wide".


pControl = pControls->Add(xtpControlButton, nAction, "");

cntrlWidth = pControl->GetWidth();

cntrlWidth == 0.
How can I determine how wide, in pixels, a "3 button wide" toolbar is?

CommandBar->Width : Pixels.
