Some of my dialogs are modeless and the toolbars no longer work on the dialogs because I can not execute the code:


void CSomeDlg::OnKickIdle()

{

  SendMessageToDescendants(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI);

  return;

}

Before installing the toolkit this code was not needed for the toolbars to work. What is the workaround? Thanks.

Did you add ON_MESSAGE(WM_KICKIDLE, OnKickIdle) to message map?

Yes, I did some research on the internet and supposively KickIdle is not "Sent" while in "Modeless Mode".

I placed 'SendMessageToDescendants(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI);' in the PreTranslateMessage but that still doesn't seem to fix all the functionality.
