SetIconId ignored in ribbon bar system button

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I'm trying to animate the icon in the system button in a ribbon by using a timer and setting the icon id with.

 CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();
 if(pCommandBars)
 {
  CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)pCommandBars->GetToolBar(nRibbonId);
  if(pRibbonBar)
   pRibbonBar->GetSystemButton()->SetIconId( nId );
 }

however, this calls through to (when it paints the button).

  HICON hIcon = GetFrameLargeIcon(pSite);

which always just sets the icon to the main frame icon, not the one set.

How do I do animation?

There's no documentaion for CXTPCommandBarAnimation, is that what I'm supposed to use, or does that just animate expansion etc of menus etc?

Regards

Adrien

	never mind... found you need to add the icon to the image manager first.

	cancel that never mind.... there's another problem. SetIconId( nId ) calls through to RedrawParent() However, RedrawParent() has a BOOL parameter about whether to animate or not. If you're trying to animate the icon yourself, this really screws it. I suggest changing the prototype AFX_INLINE void CXTPControl::SetIconId(int nId) { to AFX_INLINE void CXTPControl::SetIconId(int nId, BOOL bAnimate = TRUE) { then I can override animation for setting of the system icon.
