I have a Task Panel derived from CView in my .h file as such:


class CSimToolboxTaskView : public CView
{
protected:
    //{{AFX_MSG(CSimToolboxTaskView)
    //}}AFX_MSG
    afx_msg LRESULT OnTaskPanelNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
    DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};

In the .cpp file, you direct the XTPWM_TASKPANEL_NOTIFY message toexecute your Task Panel Notify function to take different actionsdepending on the ID of the clicked item.


BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CSimToolboxTaskView, CView)
    //{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CSimToolboxTaskView)
    //}}AFX_MSG_MAP
    ON_MESSAGE(XTPWM_TASKPANEL_NOTIFY, OnTaskPanelNotify)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

LRESULT CSimToolboxTaskView::OnTaskPanelNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    switch (wParam)
    {
        case XTP_TPN_CLICK:
            {
               CXTPTaskPanelGroupItem* pItem =(CXTPTaskPanelGroupItem*)lParam;
               TRACE(_T("Click Event: pItem.Caption = %s, pItem.ID= %i\n"), pItem->GetCaption(), pItem->GetID());
               m_pParent->NotifyToolboxItem(pItem->GetID(),TRUE);
            }
            break;

        case XTP_TPN_RCLICK:
            {
               CXTPTaskPanelItem* pItem =(CXTPTaskPanelItem*)lParam;
               TRACE(_T("RClick Event: pItem.Caption = %s, pItem.ID= %i\n"), pItem->GetCaption(), pItem->GetID());
               m_pParent->NotifyToolboxItem(pItem->GetID(),FALSE);
            }
            break;
    }

    return 0;
}

I have mine get a pointer to the parent class in the OnCreate()function, and then call a function in the parent object telling it theitem that was clicked. The item is the ID that you added to theTask Panel's group via AddGroupItem().

If you want my source, please let me know and I will email it toyou. It's very easy to use once you know what classes to createand functions to call. The samples from Codejock are very good(it's what I used).

I have been looking over the sample task panel project and such, and have become familiar with how it was created, etc.

However, I cannot figure out how to actually make the options in thetask panel work. For example, if I wanted one of the options to justcreate a message box saying hello, how would I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance for any advice / suggestions.
