My application is MDI but not derived from CMDIFrameWnd. I'd like to get the minimize/restore/close buttons in my ribbon. From browsing CXTPMenuBar::RefreshMenu and related functions, it appears that a good bit of code (SyncActiveMdiChild, m_bMdiApp, GetActiveMdiChildWnd, etc) depends on CMDIFrameWnd subclassing. Is there any way to get the system buttons without such subclassing?

I'm running Codejock 10, but eagerly awaiting 11.4.

Hi,

Unfortunatelly according MFC architecture it can work only with CMDIFrameWnd deriver window. Why you can't derive from CMDIFrameWnd?
