Hello. 2 questions for the panel: 1. In my frame class I assemble a command bar whic creates a drop-down menu: // views CXTPToolBar* pToolBarViews = pCB->Add(_T("Views"), xtpBarTop); if (pToolBarViews) { // set up the bitmap pCB->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDR_TOOLBAR_VIEWS); // pToolBarViews->SetBarID(IDR_TOOLBAR_VIEWS); CXTPControlPopup* p = (CXTPControlPopup*) pToolBarViews->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlButtonPopup,ID_VIEW_SELECT); if (p) { p->SetStyle(xtpButtonCaption); p->SetCaption("Select Views"); CMenu menu; menu.LoadMenu(IDR_SYSTEM); // we are only interested the View submenu p->SetCommandBar(menu.GetSubMenu(1)); } pToolBarViews->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlButton,ID_VIEW_CONCISE); How can I dynamically modify the menu? I have mapped an event handler like this: ON_XTP_EXECUTE(ID_VIEW_SELECT,OnExecuteViewSelect) with an implementation as below: void CAppDoc::OnExecuteViewSelect(NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult) { NMXTPCONTROL* tagNMCONTROL = (NMXTPCONTROL*)pNMHDR; if (tagNMCONTROL) { CXTPControlPopup* pControl = (CXTPControlPopup*)tagNMCONTROL->pControl; if (pControl) { DBMSG(CMsg("OnExecuteViewSelect")); } } } but it is never called. The XTP_EXECUTE works fine for combo box controls on similiar toolbars. I'd hope to get a pointer to a CMenu or similar and then add/delete/modify the menu items as appropriate in the context. So far nothing seems to work. BTW The event handlers for each of the IDR_SYSTEM submenus are called ... 2. Toolbar bitmaps - 2 toolbars created in the same manner behave differently. The problem is that a toolbar with a mixture of button and combo controls refuses to display the bitmaps for the final 2 controls created with: pTBE->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlButton,ID_FINDER_MATCHCASE); What I see is shown below (excuse the rubbish graphics - I've yet to work out why the bitmap is always rendered as 8bpp):   Here is a snap of the original in the VS2008 editor - both toolbars have 9 elements and are 16pixels wide by 15 pixels high ...  Any help greatly appreciated. This all being performed with VS2008 SP1 running on XPSP3 using XTP 1202 Thx++ Jerry |

Hi,
1. Catch WM_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP it called when Popup become visible.
2. I see you have 9 buttons on toolbar but 10 in bitmap. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Oleg, thanks. re the bitmap - the extra is that which VS always shows in its editor. There are 9 items defined in the toolbar. Why should the last two not display as bitmaps? IDR_TOOLBAR_EDITOR TOOLBAR 16, 15 BEGIN BUTTON ID_EDIT_SELECTALL BUTTON ID_EDIT_UNDO BUTTON ID_EDIT_REDO SEPARATOR BUTTON ID_EDIT_FIND BUTTON ID_FINDER_SEARCH SEPARATOR BUTTON ID_EDIT_REPLACE BUTTON ID_FINDER_REPLACE SEPARATOR BUTTON ID_FINDER_MATCHCASE BUTTON ID_FINDER_WHOLEWORD END |

Oleg: In my CDocument derived class ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP(OnInitCommandsPopup) Nothing is caught. I can see the notes in XTPCommandBarsDefines.h but this does not seem to work. Is there a message generated when a specific dropd-own menu is about to be displayed? OnInitCommandsPopup seems to be a little bit generic. |
