Thanks.

Actually as I was doing the work to use what you suggested, I noticedthat I no longer need to call MoveWindow on the splitter... I don'tknow what changed, but everything works fine without that call now.

I have an MDI child window (CXTPFrameWndBase) witha toolbar on it. This child window also hosts a splitter window(CXTSplitterWnd member created using CreateStatic in OnCreateClient). Iwant the toolbar to be able to be docked on any side of the MDI window.It is also possible that I will have multiple toolbars which could bedocked (or floating) anywhere.

I have overridden the OnSize method for the child window, so that I cancall "MoveWindow" on the splitter window member, so that it is resizedproperly. Unfortunately, I am having trouble determining the newwindow position because of the toolbars. (Note: In all of the demoapplications (that I could see) that do something similar, there isonly one toolbar, and it is assumed that it is docked at the top.)

GetClientRect returns a rect that includes the toolbars, so now I haveto trim down that rect with toolbar rects (which also means derivingfrom CXTPCommandBar to access the private m_barPosition member).

Is there an easier way to do this? Am I doing something wrong?
