Anybody know why (or how) one of my toolbars won't show the 32x32 bitmaps I have. It insists on drawing 16x16 no matter what. SetIcons() for its equivalent buttons doesn't work, either. I can't seem to find any difference between it and any other toolbar.

Help!

Thanks...

I finally figured out what was wrong. The problem was that the buttons on that particular toolbar (and a couple of others) was defined as being 17x16 pixels. When I went in the resource file and changed the numbers to 16,16, everything magically worked. Of course, I had to go and adjust the bitmap buttons, but that's no big deal because I'm loading all of my buttons from a .DLL now anyway.

The code was just:

 CXTPToolBar* pToolBar = (CXTPToolBar*)pCommandBars->Add(_T("Editing Tools"), xtpBarTop);
 if (!pToolBar || !pToolBar->LoadToolBar(IDR_EDITING_TOOLS))
 {
  TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\n");
  return 0x00;
 }

So that wasn't the problem. Just a weird sized button. I would label this as "Not a bug, behavior by design".

Thanks!
