Hi,

Is there a way to remove from CXTPToolBar the "Toolbar Options" button (The button which pops the "Add or Remove Buttons" menu) ??

thanks, Yoav.

pCommandBars->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShowExpandButt onAlways = FALSE;

How about being able to turn it off for a selected toolbar? Say I create an CXTPControlCustom animation bar and want to be able to turn it off.

You can override CXTPToolBar:

class CToolBoxBar : public CXTPToolBar
{
public:
DECLARE_XTP_COMMANDBAR(CToolBoxBar)

CSize CalcDockingLayout(int nLength, DWORD dwMode, int nWidth);

}

IMPLEMENT_XTP_COMMANDBAR(CToolBoxBar, CXTPToolBar)

CSize CToolBoxBar::CalcDockingLayout(int nLength, DWORD dwMode, int nWidth)
{
GetCommandBars()->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShow ExpandButtonAlways = FALSE;
CSize sz = CXTPToolBar::CalcDockingLayout(nLength, dwMode, nWidth);
GetCommandBars()->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShow ExpandButtonAlways = TRUE;

return sz;
}

usage:

CXTPToolBar* pToolBox = (CXTPToolBar*)
pCommandBars->Add(_T("ToolBox"), xtpBarLeft, RUNTIME_CLASS(CToolBoxBar));

but you must make CXTPToolBar::CalcDockingLayout virtual (in next version it will be)

Ok, I was able to remove the expand button. However if I move the resulting CXTPToolBar to the right side of the window, it stops from what appears to be the width of the ExpandButton, form the right side of the window. In contrast, if I move a toolbar with the ExpandButton visible, the toolbar will be flush with the right side of the window.

I guess the lack of response means it cannot be done. Is this a Microsoft shortcoming or a codejock shortcoming?

This problem can be seen in the ToolKitPro examples, CommonControls when you add the following to the MainFrm OnCreate function:

GetCommandBars()->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShow ExpandButtonAlways = FALSE;

Try to move the Animation, slider and the one with the words "Opened Documents" toolbars to the far right of the window and you can see it will stop exactly one dropdown button width from the right side.

Found the problem in the codejock software and fixed it.
