Hi,

I am using task panel in my application. Now i want to add the controls to my task panel dynamically and want also to add the text along with them. I have tried but both comes on different line. My code is as follows..

        CXTPTaskPanelGroup* pGroup3DText = m_wndTaskPanel.AddGroup(IDS_GROUP_3DTEXT);

        pGroup3DText->AddTextItem("Text: ");
        pGroup3DText->AddControlItem(m_Text);      //m_Text is editbox

        pGroup3DText->AddTextItem("Font: ");
        pGroup3DText->AddControlItem(m_cbFontface);       //m_cbFontface is combo

I want them to get added on the same line.. So, how to do that ??

And another problem I am facing in the same context is, My application is having toolbar and menubar and statusbar. I have added the task panel in the dialog. Now, If I use,

m_wndTaskPanel.SetWindowPos

to resize the dialog according to the current size of the dialog, it overrides the toolbar and menubar. Even I fixed that by giving fixed top and left location but the controls those gets added in the dialog (whose code while adding is shown above) from the first pixel which dont show all of my controls.. So, what to do.. I have attached the snapshot to better describe this..

Please tell me how to solve this problem..

Note : For the snap in the attachment, 3DText is the first taskpanel group which contains controls such as textbox and comboboxes.. but textbox and combo box gets added from the first pixel where menubar is painted.. and that makes controls overriding the menubar/statusbar.

Did anyone have a solution for this (the question in the first post)? I would also like to add a label to controls on the same line in the task panel.

Perphaps one can solve it by using 'multi columns'? I haven't downloaded 9.81 where this feature was added, but perhaps I should?

Fredrik

Hello,

Solution is to add some dialog and put Edit and Static text to it.

Hi Oleg,

Yes, I know I can use dialogs in the task panel - forgot to mention it in my posting - but would be a bit more convinient to just call, say

pGroup->AddControlItem(m_Text, "Edit: ");

instead of putting everything into a dialog. Maybe this could be a feature suggestion for a future release?
