Hi!

So far I've only found this thread
http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1193&KW=bu tton+report+control
regarding the topic.

Unfortunately none of the provided code examples coming with XT Pro contains any CXTPReportInplaceButton(s), and I can't get it to work.

Here's what I've tried:

===
CRect rcItem(0, 0, 20, 20);
CXTPReportRow *pRow = m_ReportControl.GetRows()->GetAt(1);
XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_ARGS itemArgs(&m_ReportControl, pRow, pColumn1);

CXTPReportInplaceButton Button(1234);

Button.Create(&itemArgs, rcItem);

m_ReportControl.RedrawControl();
===

compiles, runs, but there's no button...

here's what I get:

and here's what I'd like to achieve:

anyone got an idea how to do that?

CXTPReportColumn* pColumnImportance = m_wndReport.AddColumn(new CXTPReportColumn(COLUMN_IMPORTANCE, _T("Importants"), 18, FALSE, 1));

pColumnImportance->GetEditOptions()->AddExpandBu tton();

for custom button:

pColumnImportance->GetEditOptions()->arrInplaceButtons .Add(new CSendButton(123));

class CSendButton : public CXTPReportInplaceButton

Could this be added to the samples for the next release?

I second that, it would help a lot.

but thx for your reply.

I managed to produce on inplace button now, although I can't get it to stay within its cell boundaries.

I tried getting the caption rectangle by using

CXTPReportRecordItem* pItem = pRecord->AddItem(new CXTPReportRecordItemText(_T("bla")));
pItem->GetCaptionRect(&itemArgs, rcItem);

but that doesn't seem to work :(

thx for the sample

but how do you get the button to be visible all the time - not just when you click to edit the cell?
