Strange behaviour of CXTSplitterWnd

   Hi;

I found a strange behaviour of CXTSplitterWnd in ShortcutBarSample. 
Just change one line of code in CMainFrame::OnCreateClient() and the failure appears:

Change m_wndSplitter.SetColumnInfo(0, 250,50); to m_wndSplitter.SetColumnInfo(0, 250,200); 

Then move the splitter to the left side. As soon as the width of the shortcut bar is less then 200 px the control completely disappears. Moving the splitter afterwards to a position less than the cxMin size of 200 px let the splitter jump back to the left border of the splitter window.

Normally the splitter should be fixed to the cxMin size and never ever shrink to 0.

Did anyone else find and solve this issue?

	Hi, its thing of MFC's CSplitterWnd not our CXTSplitterWnd. See int MFC sources CSplitterWnd::TrackRowSize and CSplitterWnd::TrackColumnSize. They are virtual so you can change this behavior.
