Is there a way to place a Btn or Ctrl on the right of a toolbar, similar to the Winwords Help ComboBox? Thanks

I modified the GUI_OneNote sample to illustrate how to do this.

Add an popup menu item to the end of the IDR_MAINFRAME toolbar and give it a caption of "helpcombo".

Then place this code in OnCreateControl:

    if (lpCreateControl->pMenu)
   {

       if (lpCreateControl->strCaption == "helpcombo")
       {
           CXTPControlComboBox* pComboSize = new CXTPControlSizeComboBox();
           pComboSize->SetDropDownListStyle();
           pComboSize->SetFlags(xtpFlagMan ualUpdate|xtpFlagRightAlign|xtpFlagNoMovable);
           pComboSize->SetWidth(150);

           lpCreateControl->pControl = pComboSize;
           return TRUE;
       }

    }

I am doing this inside of a dialog. It seemed to work at first but in my OnSize Event I have this code:


if (m_wndToolBar.GetSafeHwnd())

  {

    sz = m_wndToolBar.CalcDockingLayout(cx, /*LM_HIDEWRAP|*/ LM_HORZDOCK|LM_HORZ | LM_COMMIT);

    m_wndToolBar.MoveWindow(0, 0, cx, sz.cy);

    m_wndToolBar.Invalidate(FALSE);

  }

As soon as the OnSize code is called, the Toolbar button moves back to its normal position. Here is the code I have in the OnCreateControl


if (lpCreateControl->nID == ID_MY_BTN)

    {

      CXTPControlButton* pFilter = (CXTPControlButton*)CXTPControlButton::CreateObject();

             pFilter->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate|xtpFlagRightAlign|x tpFlagNoMovable);

       pFilter->SetStyle(xtp ButtonIconAndCaption);

       lpCreateControl->pCon trol = pFilter;

      return TRUE;

    }

What else am I missing? I also have another post about Modeless Dlgs and KickIdle Messages. Can you check that out also. Thanks.
