I have a StatusBar docked along the bottom of my app. When I create a Toolbar and dock it along the bottom it hides the StatusBar. Should the Toolbar not "know" the presence of the StatusBar and dock just above it? If not, how does one keep from having the ToolBar obscure the StatusBar? I do not see a way to set a Top property of the Toolbar.

Why not use the Codejock StatusBar?

If for some reason you don't like the Codejock StatusBar


Private Sub CommandBars_GetClientBordersWidth(Left As Long, Top As Long, Right As Long, Bottom As Long)
   If sbStatusBar.Visible Then
        Bottom = sbStatusBar.Height
    End If
End Sub

I like the CodeJock StatusBar just fine --that is what I am using. Yet, the CommandBar docks right over the StatusBar hiding it from view.

I'm not sure, it should be automatic.  I assume it is the order in which you add it.  Be sure to add the StatusBar after all CommandBars have been created.  Look at the StatusBar sample to see the proper order.  You will see not additional code is needed to tell the CommandBars where the StatusBar is.

Ah, that was it. I was initializing the StatusBar first. Once I followed your advice it worked fine.

 

Thxs!
