Any chance of a resizable CXTPDialog?

Try CXTPDialogBase<CXTResizeDialog>

I tried that, and it compiled ok, but did not work. Looks just like when I used CXTPDialog. No sizing grip on the statusbar, and cound not resize the window.

Also, in both the CXTResizeDialog and the CXTDialog (as well as the example DialogSample which uses the CXTPDialog, in the toolkit), the statusbar fields are not being updated. Apears to updated once at the start, then thats it. You can observe this in the sample by simply toggling the NumLock or Caps Lock key.

Yes, that allows the frame to be resized, but nothing more. All the control bars remain the same size, and the statusbar still does not get updated.

May I suggest this be turned over to the Codejock qualtity control team and have someone at least compile and run the toolkit sample, and SEE and is going on.

I see same problem, I opened DialogSample and changed border style to resizing. This places a gripper on the statusbar, but you can only resize the dialog and statusbar individually. Not sure if something else needs to be done to make them work at same time. But I also noticed that the statusbar was not updated in the sample. I'm guessing there is something extra that needs to be done to notify statusbar.

On every other "normal dialog with toolbars/statusbar", that something extra is the WK_KICKIDLE, which the sample (and my test dialog) includes. The new codjock control bar logic appears have broken this logic somewhere within the toolkit.

If I go back to the old CXTResizeDialog, all the resizing works perfect, but when you add the new control bars, it breaks everything.

Well since the codejock toolkit cannot handle a resizable dialog with the toolkit pro control bars, I simply went to the old standby from The Code Project, EasySize. It takes care of all the child controls, and a few lines of code handles the control bars. If anyone needs the code to handle the control bars, let me know.
