1. Using a CScrollView as the View class type. 2. Using Document/View Architecture. 3. Insert multiple Common Controls such as CEdit, CButton, CListCtrl into the View dynamically. 4. All the Common Controls is base on a template created by user. So I do not know the quantity of the Common Controls.
This is the plan on how to do it:
1. In View OnInitialUpdate(), read the template to get all necessary info on the Common Controls to be create. 2. In View OnInitialUpdate(), create all Common Control. Some Common Control may not have WS_VISIBLE as it may not needed at initial stage. 3. In View OnUpdate(), I need to refresh the Common Control properties such as is its text, position or its visibility. This should happen if Document call UpdateAllView().
My Question: 1. Is this a normal & useable plan? 2. Do I miss other functions for any other messages? 3. Still wondering if I need to involve any coding in OnDraw() for this plan.
I'm using CStatic inherited class in my code and creating static text boxes dynamically. Now for assigning unique control ID I'm creating a static control from resource editor and destroying it before calling CStatic::Create() and using its control ID say ID_STATIC_SAMPLE.
If I do not use this parameter of Create(), the static control is also being created, so what is the use of this unique ID. And any other better way to assign a ID for dynamically created static controls.
I added a new CMFCToolBar (by hand, didn't use a wizard)
It docks OK. The commands work OK. It renders OK. No problems there.
In the code, attempting to set the window text of this toolbar has no effect. The title bar text is always "Standard". I triple triple triple checked to make sure I don't have any resource ID conflicts. In a small app as this, it was pretty easy to verify this.
The toolbar also does not show in the menu illustrated in the screenshot. (The bottom, undocked toolbar should be titled "My Page Bar" and I think it should show up in the popup menu.)
I know I'm probably missing a simple step somewhere, but I haven't seen it. It looks like its getting mixed up with the Standard Toolbar resource ID somewhere but I could see nothing in the .rc or resource.h files.
I am working on a Windows application using Visual Studio 2012. One of the screens have a text entry field for the user. Instead of using a standard text field control, am placing a image which looks exactly like a text field. Now what i want to do is, capture the key stroke and update this image with the characters entered by user.
The initial image shown to the user is "Blank_Text_Entry.png" and this is added to the resource as IDB_BLANK_TEXT_ENTRY.
This is a rectangular white image with dimensions 153 x 27, with a size of 250 bytes.
My goal is to be able to update this image dynamically based on key strokes by user and display it.
I get a task: to color the control scrollbar (a gridctrl scrollbar, whatever). In the first attempting I didn't succeded ... So, I started to trying coloring a CListBox scrollbar ... I developed a derived CListBox where I override OnCtlColor:
I'm have a bitmap that's about 4000x2000. But I want to put it all into a picture control. I attempted to use stretchBlt() to shrink it. But it did not work.
Code:
HBITMAP originalImage = CreateDIBitmap(m_picture1.GetDC()->m_hDC, m_bmiHeader, CBM_INIT, (unsigned short *)m_OriginalBits,
I created a MFC dialog using CDHtmlDialog and added a HTML page with many controls and one of them is a IMAGE tag. I got a default image loaded from the hard drive displayed in the HTML page. Up to this part, everything works fine.
Now what i want to do is, dynamically change the image based on the user click on one of the HTML buttons. I don't want this image source to be hard coded in the HTML nor the image source send from the MFC app.
What i want is for the MFC app to send the image data to the HTML in some (binary) format and then the page to display the image.
The possible option i was thinking of was to read the image file which is already in my hard drive as a binary file and send the binary data across to the HTML as a memory buffer, and then use JavaScript to decrypt this binary data and display the image.
Basically what i want is for the HTML page to display a image from the memory. how to do this?
In a MDI-app with some toolbars and statusbar I created also a controlbar which can be docked to the left side. My problem now: how do I get the exact height of the controlbar?
In CalcDynamicLayout I set the height for the docked state to the height of the mainframe. This value is too big, but it will work basically.
But how can I get the exact height of the controlbar?
I'm writing an ActiveX control. In one of the functions I'd like the user to be able to pass me a pointer to a buffer that they created which I can then fill with data and return a success/error code. What's the appropriate way to do this? I was thinking about just using an OLE_HANDLE type for the parameter and then casting that to pointer inside the OCX but I'm not sure if that's safe or the right way to do it.
I am using a slider control on a dialog box. I have handled OnLButtonDown for Slider control. But I wonder its not getting called whenever I click on the slider thumb, instead it gets called when I click anywhere on the dialog.
I want to handle OnLButtonDown when I click on the slider thumb.
When I create a list control I can assign an image list to it with the ListView_SetImageList().
By default, when just created there is no image list assigned as can be checked with ListView_GetImageList().
Now, what should happen when I do following call:
Create list control. Create an image list Get the current image list Assign an image list to list control Display some items Assign an old image list to list control.
Does strings on the list control should be indented?
