CXTPDockingPane

Hi,

This is probably a dummy question . How do I send/receive messages to/from controls (such as buttons, sliders & progress bars) in the embedded dialog of CSimpleFormView?

I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Indrajit

Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys have great support !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still can't get it done...

I have created thourgh the resource editor a new CFormView Class and added some controls, but

I don't see anywere in your code above where do I attach the CFormView ID (IDD_LOAD_FILE_FORMVIEW).

Plus, my application crashes on startup when I use the code above.

Please help.

This is my code:

LRESULT CMainFrame::OnDockingPaneNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    if (wParam == XTP_DPN_SHOWWINDOW)
    {
        CXTPDockingPane* pPane = (CXTPDockingPane*)lParam;
  
       
        if (!pPane->IsValid())
        {

   if (m_pFormFrame == NULL)
   {
    m_pFormFrame = new CFrameWnd;
    CCreateContext context;
    context.m_pNewViewClass = RUNTIME_CLASS(LoadFileFormView); //My new CFormView
    context.m_pCurrentDoc = NULL;

    m_pFormFrame->Create(NULL, NULL, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_CLIPCHILDREN|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS,
     CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, NULL, 0, &context);
    m_pFormFrame->ModifyStyleEx(WS_EX _CLIENTEDGE, 0);
    m_pFormFrame->SendMessageToDescen dants(WM_INITIALUPDATE, 0, 0, TRUE, TRUE);

   }
   pPane->Attach(m_pFormFrame);

             switch (pPane->GetID())
             {
             case IDR_PANE_PROPERTIES:
                 {                              
                     if (m_wndProperties.GetSafeHwnd() == 0)
                     {
      
                           m_wndProperties.Create(NULL,
                               WS_CHILD|WS_CLIPCHILDREN|
                               WS_CLIPSIBLINGS|SS_CENTER,
                               CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, 0);
                     }
                     pPane->Attach(&m_wndProperties);

                     break;
                 }
             case IDR_PANE_OPTIONS:
                 {                              
                     if (m_wndOptions.GetSafeHwnd() == 0)
                     {
                           m_wndOptions.Create(NULL,
                               WS_CHILD|WS_CLIPCHILDREN|
                               WS_CLIPSIBLINGS|SS_CENTER,
                               CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, 0);
                     }
                     pPane->Attach(&m_wndOptions);
                     break;
                 }
             }
        }
        return TRUE;
    }
    return FALSE;
}

Hi,

I'm (newbie) trying to add some control (buttons, combobox...) to a CXTPDockingPane that is attached to an MDI application.

It would be great if I could do it from the Visual Studio resrouce editor using a CFormView/CDialog ( if its possible) or any other way would be fine to.

I'm using Xtreme Toolkit Pro 8.51

Thanks.
