I have an app that's based on CXTPDialog - I have a toolbar on it and everything there works fine. Now I want to add my standard buttons, but can't seem to make that work.

This is the code I use for all apps with a frame --

CImageList imgList32;

CImageList imgList16;

HRESULT hr;

imgList32.Create(32,32,ILC_COLORDDB|ILC_MASK,0,1);

imgList16.Create(16,16,ILC_COLORDDB|ILC_MASK,0,1);

stdButtons = new UINT[btnCount];

for(int x=0;x<btnCount;x++)

{

stdButtons[x] = iconIds[x].cmd;

HICON hIcon = ::LoadIcon(iconInst,MAKEINTRESOURCE(iconIds[x].icon));

if(!hIcon)

{

hIcon = AfxGetApp()->LoadStandardIcon(IDI_QUESTION);

}

imgList32.Add(hIcon); // load the 32x32 one

imgList16.Add(hIcon); // and the 16x16

}

// now set both sizes of the images for XTP...

hr= XTPImageManager()->SetIcons((CImageList&)imgList32,stdButtons,btnCount,CSize(32,32));

hr= XTPImageManager()->SetIcons((CImageList&)imgList16,stdButtons,btnCount,CSize(16,16));

SAFE_DELETE(stdButtons);

FreeLibrary(iconInst);

return TRUE;

}

But that doesn't seem to work. I can't get the "toolbar customize" thing to work on this toolbar, either. Maybe that's a related issue?

Thanks!

In this code you add icons to imagemanager. but not buttons to toobar.

See CXTPCommandBar::SetButtons method or

CXTPControls::Add

I create the toolbars a line or two earlier, then call the function whose code was posted earlier (SetupIcons).

Here's the code:

BOOL CCommonAnalysisDialog::CreateToolbar(const UINT menuID /* = IDR_STATICMENU */, const UINT toolBarID /* = IDR_STATICTOOLS */)

{

InitCommandBars();

CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();

pCommandBars->SetMenu("Menu Bar",menuID);

CXTPToolBar* pToolBar = pCommandBars->Add("Standard",xtpBarTop);

pToolBar->LoadToolBar(toolBarID);

RepositionControls();

SetupIcons(sizeof(iconIDs)/sizeof(iconIDs[0]),(const UINT*)&iconIDs);

pCommandBars->GetShortcutManager()->SetAccelerators(menuID);

return TRUE;

}

Oleg,

Now I know why you were thinking "this guy doesn't know what he's doing" ---

I found out what was was wrong --- Whoever designed this dialog the first time used 24x24 toolbars and I only have images for 16x16 and 32x32. when I changed the toolbar button size from 24x24 to 16x16, all my Icons show up just fine...

Thanks!
