[BUG] Adding a custom control to the commandbar

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

I have a problem whereby I've added a CJ DateTimePicker control that I add to the CommandBar. When I select the DateTimePicker, it jumps out of the bar into a random place on the screen. 

If you use a standard VB DateTimePicker, it works as expected and doesn't jump about! I have similar experiences with the CJ Treeview being in the docking panes compared to a VB Treeview!

Is this a bug in my version of CJ? I don't want to request the company upgrades without fully knowing it's fixed in later versions..

Cheers

	Try putting the control in a PictureBox and then attaching the PictureBox as the custom control.

	that'll probably work as I've done that with the treeview in the docking panes. Seems a bit untidy that I need to stick them into a picturebox though since normal vb controls are ok :S Is this a confirmed bug that needs to be fixed? I couldn't see it on any issues list in the releases? and a minor thing for CJ please... can you make the dropdown on the DateTimePicker control to line up it's border to the left of the control? It's slightly indented and I think it'll look cleaner having it in line with the control!

	An Additional question to this.. I'm trying to make the command bar control have a caption so it's next to the above box. I can't stick a label in the picture box with this date picker because the skin doesn't get carried through and looks odd...? Is there a way to use the combo box and label together in one control or do I have to add a label control, then the combo box (so it's not two seperate ones).
