multiple command bars message routing?

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

Alright, I have 3 spots where I call InitCommandBars() - a
CXTPMDIFrameWnd (CMainFrame), a CXTPFrameWndBase<CMDIChildWnd>,
and a CXTPFrameWnd that goes in a docking pane.

The CMainFrame loads designer bars, and the other two windows only have
a single toolbar that is created via code by copying controls
information from a hidden toolbar on the main frame.

Now, the problem is that on the CMDIChildWnd, any toolbar control that
is handled by the CMainFrame will just stay greyed out.  Anything
handled by the CScrollView it contains, or by the CWinApp will work
just fine.

On the docking pane window, only controls handled by CWinApp work.
Anything handled by its CScrollView or CMainFrame remains greyed out
forever.

What do I have to do to properly route the messages so that the command
bars will know when a control is supposed to be enabled and doing
something.
