I'm using this tutorial for making an owner draw menu. [URL] ...
When I go into the .rc file and remove all of the MENUITEM SEPARATORs all the menu options are squished to the left of the menu as in the screenshot. As long as there is just one MENU SEPARATOR anywhere the menu is fine. If I could make the application without MENU SEPARATORs that would be awesome.
I have two menu items. When item 1 is disabled, I want item 2 to be disabled as well. In the OnUpdate handler of menu item 1, I have tried to use "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pMenu;", "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pSubMenu;" and "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pParentMenu;" but I always get NULL t_pMenu. How can I achieve this purpose?
Code:
void CDummyView::OnUpdateMenuItem1(CCmdUI* pCmdUI)
{
if(m_bShowMenuItem1) {
pCmdUI->Enable(TRUE);

I quite often use an ide written in assembler: RadAsm3[URL] .....
It has a menu item to explore current path. I have used other ide's that have a similar feature but:
The one in RadAsm3 will activate a current Explorer window if the current path is the same as the one requested.
All others open a new Explorer window.
I would like to implement the RadAsm3 approach using Visual Studio 2013 Community c++ as my host compiler for testing.
I tried to get the title of current windows but it appears ShellExecute "explore" does not produce a conventional window???
I have made a menuitem using the combo box, but when I add items in like in the image below:
[URL]
My problem is that when I move my mouse over the item it displays this darker box around the text:
[URL]
This stops me from clicking it and the code from being executed.
I have ploughed through the exchanges in all the forums, yet I still cannot make it work. The following is a tiny Code::Blocks program, written to isolate the problem:
// resource.h
#define IDR_MYMENU101
#define ID_FILE 102
#define ID_DISABLE103
#define ID_ENABLE 104
#define ID_MESSAGE105
#define ID_EXIT106
[code].....
case ID_ENABLE is similar to case ID_DISABLE above, and neither works. case ID_MESSAGE and case ID_EXIT both works as expected.I have tinkered with EnableMenuItem(), but without success.
how to create a context menu but none of them discuss how to actually fetch the selected menu item?
if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
{
ContextMenu m = new ContextMenu();
m.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("Font Size 8"));
m.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("Font Size 9"));
m.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("Font Size 10"));
m.Show(listBoxChecklist, new Point(e.X, e.Y));
//tempString = m.?????
}
I know how to add a new item to a folder right-click menu, using the registry, but it won't show up on file right-click menu. give me a link to how this is done? I want this new menu appear on every file R-C menu, file registered with the system or not. Is there a simple way to do this as adding a item to folder R-C menu, or will i have to iterate all the registered file types in registry to do it. I tried google with many search terms, but i can't find a source for this.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I get the path for a selected item in a list control?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need a ownerdraw CListBox where I can change the item height during working with the list. The msdn says that I can specify the height in OnMeasureItem when the listbox will be created (ownerdrawfixed) or when an item will be inserted (ownerdrawvariable).
How to change the height e.g. when I click a button?
I made also some tests with CListCtrl. There I can change the height. But there is only one height for all items. How to set individual heights for the items?
What my purpose here is to use a template to append an item of type T to a node of a ptree (boost)
Code:
template<typename T>
ptree& stick(ptree& tree, char *location, T const & t) {
return tree.add(location, t);
}
Here I can't compile
Code:
struct hdr {
WORD weights_per_vertex;
WORD weights_per_face;
WORD num_bones;

Doesn't the type of T includes the type struct hdr?
I am trying to write a menu program that will be broken down into a series of calls to function for each of the menu items. Two of the menu items will be simple programs which I wrote.
I want two of the functions to run one of the two programs I am trying to include as items in the menu.
So far I am only familiar with variables, loops, if statements, and I just learned how to write functions.
The problem I am have is that I don't quite understand how to write a function that will run one of the two programs. Also I am having a hard time writing the program in away that would allow the user to select the menu items.
I'm creating a program that is based on a menu system. Basically each menu is its own user-defined function. The problem is at each menu you can input 'b' to go to the previous menu. I just have it call the function of that menu.
However, do the functions need to complete themselves eventually? If I just keep calling functions will I just keep going further and further deeper into ever running functions?
If so how do I avoid this and yet keep the option to go back to a previous menu/function?
I am developing a CFormView MFC app. When I go to click something on the menu, it takes awhile before the event happens. The project is build optimized in release mode. I have 3 additional threads and I thought they might be blocking the internal MFC framework stuff, but I use the Sleep() call in each thread to yield to the MFC main app.

I need to show the top-level File Menu from the IDR_MAINFRAME window when a command is sent from the active document.
I would like to application to deactivate the active child window and then show the File menu as if the alt-F key was pressed from the keyboard.
I have tried CMenu *pMenu=AfxGetMainWnd()->GetMenu();
but this does not display the menu at all.
Normally, menu bar resides below the title bar. See attachment MenuBarOriginal.JPG
Is there a way that we can position the menu bar? For example,place it on the side or anywhere on the dialog box?
MenuBarModified.JPG is some sample of menu bar positions that I want to place.
I want to do this on a dialog box.
I derived a class from CRecentFileList in order to set the number of displayed chars for MRU.
The problem is that if I open the app with 256 set for this number (it is read from .ini file) the display is correct. But after I change it to 10 for e.g., File menu width remains unchanged altghough MRU are correctly displayed on 10 (or at least file name lenghts) chars.
how can I tell to the menu to shrink to actual width?
Can change the menu bar font size in CMainFrame::OnCreate()? Here's what I have:
Code:
int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct) {
CRect rect;
GetClientRect(&rect);
if (CFrameWnd::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1) {
return -1;

The line "m_wndToolBar.SetFont(&m_font);" does nothing.
I want create menu button to change font of CString displyed in main window. We can see string "SAMPLE",and when i press menu button that i created i want to string "SAMPLE" to display with different font,i already created CFont object and added italic style with CreateFont;

I wish to add the item 'Website' to an MFC Dialog app System Menu so that it can activate the following method:
Code:
void CMyDlg::OnWebpage()
{
ShellExecute( NULL, NULL, _T("[URL]..."), NULL, NULL, 0 );
}// OnWebpage()
I have tried this:
Code:
#define IDM_WEBSITE (WM_USER + 101)
//..
if (!strAboutMenu.IsEmpty())
{
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR);
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_STRING, IDM_ABOUTBOX, strAboutMenu);
pSysMenu->AppendMenuW(MF_STRING, IDM_WEBSITE, _T("Website"));
}
[Code]...
The code compiles without error but and the 'website' item appears on the System Menu but it doesnt do anything.
I've inspected the following but don't really understand how it works and it seems to me there should be a simpler way to accomplish my end.
Modifying the System Menu By John Simmons 26 Jan 2007 [URL]....
I have a (large) application that works perfectly under XP. When I run it under Windows 7 the "File Edit View..." menu in my application flickers when everything is otherwise idle.
I have traced this down to SetTimer and its associated OnTimer function. OnTimer usually does nothing, so I have commented out everything leaving this:
Code:
void MyView::OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent) { }
I have also changed the SetTimer call to give one tick every five seconds.
I now see the same behaviour: the File menu is very briefly greyed-out every five seconds, leading to the flicker. Nothing else in the window is exhibiting this flicker.
So, I have a call to a null function every five seconds that manages to affect a menu.
what may be causing this?
This is what I have so far, it gives me a nice menu to select from and it all works but after I make a selection it closes the program. I tried to return to it but it won't work for me
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int choice;
int deposit;
int balance = 500; {
printf(" CHOOSE FROM THE FOLLOWING

I'm attaching a project that demonstrates the issue. I need to display a context menu with anti-aliased bitmaps. I wrote my own method to convert an icon into a bitmap (see the CreatePARGBBitmapFromIcon() method) but the resulting bitmap seems to lose all anti-aliasing when displayed in a menu. What is interesting is that the same bitmap is displayed without any issues in a CStatic 'stPic1' control (the one in the middle.) The visual artifact also seems to be different on different OS. Take a look at the screenshots attached.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was reading a c++ code written in embarcadero ide to add vertical colour text in popup menu.
While reading the code, I had seen following instructions.

My problem is ToolTips are not shown if any of the tool-bar menu items is disabled/inactive.
They are shown when all tool bar menus are active/enabled.
