Topic: CXTPControlCustom within customize dialog

Hi! Is there any way to add CXTPControlCustom into the customize dialog? I try to do this using CommonControls sample but attempt was unsuccessful:

1. I try to add Slider control using toolbar as category:

CXTPCustomizeSheet dlg(pCommandBars);
CXTPCustomizeOptionsPage pageOptions(&dlg);
pPageCommands->AddToolbarCategory(_T("Slider"), IDR_SLIDERBAR);

Result: A dozen of assert occurs within MFC interior when customize dialog is called.

2. I try to add Slider control manually:

    CXTPControls* pOther = pPageCommands->InsertCategory(_T("Slider"));
    CXTPControlCustom* pControlSlider =   CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_wndSlider);
    pOther->Add(pControlSlider, IDC_SLIDER);

Result: Customize dialog is shown successfully, but:
1) command in the Slider category is shown as some unknown icon
2) it is impossible add this command anywhere except menu
3) Access Violation error occurs, after you finish drag from customize dialog into menu.

With best regards,
Green

>> 1) command in the Slider category is shown as some unknown icon
It's not unknown icon, but icon from toolbar sure

The 1-st method became partly successful. I add:

int CMainFrame::OnCreateControl(LPCREATECONTROLSTRUCT lpCreateControl)
{
    if (lpCreateControl->nID == IDC_SLIDER)
    {
        if (m_wndSlider.m_hWnd == 0)
        {
           if (!m_wndSlider.Create(TBS_HORZ | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE,
               CRect(0, 0, 200, 16), this, IDC_SLIDER))
           {
                return FALSE;
           }
        }
        ........
        ........
        ........
    }
}

But it is possible to insert control into menu only. And it can't be removed from menu in the customize mode.
Can anybody help?

Green, how do you see it?

Imagine you already have m_wndSlider in toolbar and used drag another from

customize dialog, so it must be second m_wndSlider with same handle?

Here is a start, which I use, and is fully customizable and more or less seems to work the way it should:

Hello guys! Thank you for response.

To Oleg: You are right example is quite ugly. You can use another instance of control for the customize dialog and result will be the same (It is possible to insert control into menu only. And it can't be removed from menu in the customize mode.) Ark42's sample makes it more clear how to resolve problem.

BTW, why does CXTPControlCustom::GetType() return xtpControlButton instead xtpControlCustom? In CommonControls sample add following line:

int CMainFrame::OnCreateControl(LPCREATECONTROLSTRUCT lpCreateControl)
{
    .........

    CXTPControlCustom* pControlAnimation = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_wndAnimCntrl);
    XTPControlType type = pControlAnimation->GetType();

    .........
}

The result will be xtpControlButton. Is it a bug? (Or I don't understand something )

Green: please post here to let me know if you improve upon this in any way. I use a lot of slider bars in my toolbars for some reason. It would be good to know if there are any significant bugs with this method of deriving from CXTPControlCustom.

Hello Arc42! It was just reserch how it is easy to build-in this library into our product. We decide to purchase library at last. But project will start little bit later. So, if any issues appear I will post them here.
