Menus with big icons

I have bitmaps that are 28x16. I attach them to the menu system like this for certain on-demand items; that is, I don't have a toolbar to match the items. The problem is that the system stretches the menu bitmap to 28x28. Other menu systems don't do this. It just puts up the bitmap in the size that I want. Here is the code that I use.

void CMainFrame::InsertMenuItem(CXTPControls* pCommandList, int nPosition, int nID, LPCTSTR pszText, int nBitmapID/*=0*/)

  if (!strHotKey.IsEmpty())

    str += _T("\t")+strHotKey;

    if (nPosition != -1)

    if (nBitmapID != 0 && !theApp.m_b508UI)

Just tried and don't see any problems... Try to create new application with wizard and reproduce it with it.

Do you have 9.80/9.81? As I remember it was some changes in this field.

Hello, just tried code you attached and see problem.

Steps to fix:

add

replace in your code

iml.Create(bm.bmHeight, bm.bmHeight, ILC_MASK, 0, 0);

to

iml.Create(bm.bmWidth, bm.bmHeight, ILC_MASK, 0, 0);

Also, I have this in my OnCreate method:

// Initialize the command bars

if (!InitCommandBars())

return -1;

// Get a pointer to the command bars object.

if (pCommandBars == NULL)

TRACE0("Failed to create command bars object.\n");

return -1; // fail to create

// Add the menu bar

_T("Menu Bar"), IDR_MAINFRAME);

if (pMenuBar == NULL)

TRACE0("Failed to create menu bar.\n");

return -1; // fail to create
