Hi,

I have the same problem. My menus are dynamic and need to be modified depending on the MDI child view selected.

Can anbody give me a different solution.

Any help appreciated.

No, I catch it in tne MDI parant. It used to work before subclassing off CXTPMDIFrameWnd, but now it does not.

ohh. i see now.

by OnInitMenuPopup I mean CommandBars version of this function

from Notifications sample:

ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP()

...

void CMainFrame::OnInitCommandsPopup(CXTPPopupBar* pCommandBar)
{
// get the list of commands for the popup.
CXTPControls* pCommandList = pCommandBar->GetControls();

// Remove "New" menu item from the File menu.
CXTPControl* pCommandNew = pCommandList->FindControl(
xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_NEW, TRUE, FALSE);
if (pCommandNew)
{
pCommandList->Remove(pCommandNew);
}

// Rename menu item "Save" to "Save Document".
CXTPControl* pCommandSave = pCommandList->FindControl(
  xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE, TRUE, FALSE);
if (pCommandSave)
{
  CWnd* pWnd = MDIGetActive();
  CString strCaption;
  if (pWnd) pWnd->GetWindowText(strCaption);

pCommandSave->SetCaption("&Save " + strCaption);
}

// Rename menu item "Print..." to "Print Document...".
CXTPControl* pCommandPrint = pCommandList->FindControl(
  xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT, TRUE, FALSE);
if (pCommandPrint)
{
  CWnd* pWnd = MDIGetActive();
  CString strCaption;
  if (pWnd) pWnd->GetWindowText(strCaption);

pCommandPrint->SetCaption("&Print " + strCaption +"...");
}

// Sample of dynamic creation. Recommended to make it in OnCreateControl handler.
CXTPControl* pControlIcons = pCommandList->FindControl(
  xtpControlButton, ID_VIEW_ICONS, TRUE, FALSE);
if (pControlIcons)
{
  CXTPControlPopup* pPopup = (CXTPControlPopup*)pControlIcons->GetControls()->SetCo ntrolType(pControlIcons, xtpControlPopup);
  pPopup->SetFlags(xtpFlagManualUpdate);

  CXTPPopupToolBar* pPopupBar = CXTPPopupToolBar::CreatePopupToolBar(GetCommandBars());
  pPopupBar->LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME);
  pPopupBar->SetWidth(200);

pPopup->SetCommandBar(pPopupBar);
pPopupBar->InternalRelease();

}

// Combo box's List bar.
if (pCommandBar->GetPosition() == xtpBarListBox)
{
CXTPControlComboBox* pControl = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPControlComboBox, pCommandBar->GetControlPopup());
ASSERT(pControl != NULL);

pControl->ResetContent();

int nID = AFX_IDM_FIRST_MDICHILD;

  HWND hWndChild = ::GetDlgItem(m_hWndMDIClient, nID);
  while (hWndChild)
  {
   TCHAR lpText[256];
   ::GetWindowText(hWndChild, lpText, 256);
   pControl->AddString(lpText);

hWndChild = ::GetDlgItem(m_hWndMDIClient, ++nID);
}

}
}

Hi,

Solution works, thanks, though it is not quite the solution I was looking for.

The requirement I have is to be able to modify the menus depending on the current selected view. Remember, the contents of the menus are dynamic, and so do not have specific IDs.

On the first call to OnInitCommandsPopup the menu gets changed. However on the next call I would like the menu to be according to the original template (which has identifiable markers which I look for), so I can do the necessary changes again (according to the current selection), rather than trying to figure out what changes I need to undo first. The key point in the second and subsequent calls is that my original markers have been removed (they are dummy) and so it is difficult to know what to undo.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Bruce.
