I have tried WM_KICKIDLE, still I'm not getting call on the update handler for the toolbar.

One more thing, the toolbar is on modaless dialog in fact in docking pane. And i'm getting call to Update handler  only when I click on the toolbar button. And after that on command event handler.]]> Wed, 25 Jul 2012 11:14:27 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19924&PID=68661&title=updating-toolbar-button-state#68661 <![CDATA[Updating toolbar button state : You can force update your toolbar...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19924&PID=68603&title=updating-toolbar-button-state#68603 Author: sharky

You can force update your toolbar from WM_KICKIDLE message handler

for example:

ON_MESSAGE(WM_KICKIDLE, &CDlg::OnKickIdle)

LRESULT CDlg::OnKickIdle(WPARAM, LPARAM)
{
    SendMessageToDescendants(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI);

    return 0;
}

Hi;

Take a look at

Samples\CommandBars\DialogSample

It shows how to get the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI handlers to work.

Hi,

I have a dialog in MFC application, which was having menu-bar. Now I have created a toolbar (CXTPToolBar) in that dialog using the same command which is in the menu-bar.

I use to update the menu-item's state(enable/disable) as per some check in ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UII handler.

My doubt is when the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UII handler gets called by the framework for updating the toolbar buttons state. Since, I am not getting call to this function and it's only get called when i clicks on menubar to popup the menu-items.

Moreover, call to ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI is only coming when I click on the toolbar button.

What is the correct way for doing this? Is there some alternative for doing this?

Thanks
