Hello,

I just got my hands on XTP 11.2 and I find myself a bit puzzled with the fact that I can't seem to have the ON_XTP_CREATECONTROL working for me.

I saw a few reports of this but would like to know if I did something wrong. I thought I did copy pretty much the code in the samples...

THE ISSUE:

The function OnCreateControl(LPCREATECONTROLSTRUCT lpCreateControl) is only called if I have menus. If the controls resides only on the ribbon, its not called.

Here's the project. Uncomment the part for the menu and the function will be called ! I need to have custom controls on the Ribbon and not the menu.

Many thanks in advance

Hello,

It called only if you don't add button manually - for example convert from menus or toolbar resources.

if you add button manually you just don't need it - create button "in-place" instead

pGroupFile->Add(xtpControlCustom, ID_BTN4);

call

CXTPControlCustom* pControlMonthCal = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_LC);
...

pGroupFile->Add(pControlMonthCal , ID_BTN4);
