Visual C++ :: Show Some Rich Text In A Dialog Box?
Nov 26, 2012
I have been told to show some text document when our application starts up, it is an EULA. They gave me a word file and I saved this file in a .rtf format. I then wish to show this in a dialog box and found this on code guru: [URL]
Which seems to be a sub-class that will do all the formatting for me. So I use that class and then load in the .rtf file, using their setRTF method I just get an empty text box.
I just want to be able to show this formatted, somewhat pretty text from this document in my application as close as I can to the original document. Is there an easy way to do that? I could turn it into plain text, but I think that my boss would not be happy about that.
The problem was that I needed the text box to be marked multi-line.

I have the below code, the first rich text box works fine but on the second i get the error
An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll
Additional information: File format is not valid.
System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox rtBox = new System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox();
rtBox.Rtf = reader["Change_Description"] as string;
Change_Description = rtBox.Text;
System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox rtBox2 = new System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox();

I have a tabbed dialog with a couple of Separate dialogs. I created classes of CDialog for each dialog. Im trying to get the text from the edit control from the tabbed dialog and it appears in a message box when I press a button on the main dialog.
Code:
myDialog test;
test.UpdateData(TRUE);
CString bla = test.m_edit1;
test.UpdateData(FALSE);
MessageBox(bla,bla,MB_OK);
The m_edit is a variable of CString for the edit box
it gives me a error and crashes.
How do I get the text from the other dialogs edit control?

I am trying to display some data in text format on a dialog and I am using a CString to do it. Below is how I coded it.
Code:
CString outputStr;
CString auxStr;
// Add header
outputStr.Format("");
auxStr.Format("%-7s%-20s%-7s%-20s%s
[Code] .....
But the output rows are not aligned as shown in the attached picture. There a two problems.
1. Data rows don't align with the header row.
2. When the first element of a row changes to two digits, the other elements are shifted.
According to MSDN [URL] ...., CString::Format() works the same way as printf(). I wrote a small program using printf() to do the same thing, and the output in the console are perfectly aligned.
What have I missed when doing the display in GUI?

I am trying to make a messageBoxButtons dialog with the 'yes, no' buttons. Im having trouble because of the multiple lines and parameters already in the message, this means that when i declare the messageBoxButtons.YesNo and the title - it throws an error because of the multiple lines etc...
How can I get the yes/no message box to work in this instance?
class Output {
string text; {
DialogResult dialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Please make sure the following information is correct before submitting."
+ " Date: " + Date
+ " Hours worked: " + Hours
+ " Hourly rate: $" + Rate
[Code] ....

Code:
SetWindowText(textBox2,&buttonPush(hWnd));

I am currently working out on a problem in which a c program is to be made which shows a large text file in parts.
f
For example: If file contains 200 lines. 50 lines will be shown on first page and user is asked to press any key to move to next page until EOF is found. user is allowed to return to previous page as well, and this is very complicated task for me. I tried to move cursor to a specific position using fseek etc but it page doesn't stop and reaches to end quickly.

I'm trying to make program that will read text from a file and show what words occur how many times. I'm trying to make it so that if a new string comes, it saves it into wlist[], and counts 1 to wcount[]. If the same word is there, it will just add 1 to wcount[]. The program will end when it gets to the end of a file.
I don't know the reason, but I can't get strcmp and strcpy to work. I had to put a pointer in curword, just to make it compile.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define LIST_MAX 100
#define WORD_MAX 20
int main(){
[Code] ....

I've created a modeless dialog from my main dialog as follows:
Code:
m_pContainerDlg = new CDlgContainer(NULL, this);
m_pContainerDlg->Create(CDlgContainer::IDD, GetDesktopWindow());
m_pContainerDlg ->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
This container dialog creates a child dialog which I show inside the container
Code:
BOOL CDlgContainer::OnInitDialog(){
// Create the child dialog and show it
m_pChildDlg = new CChildDlg(this);
m_pChildDlg->Create(IDD_DIRECTORY_DIALOG, this);
return FALSE;
}
From my child dialog I then create a modal dialog when a user clicks on a button
Code:
CChildDlg:: CChildDlg (CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/) :
m_pParent((CDlgContainer*)pParent), {
} void CChildDlg::OnBnClickedBtn() {
CMyDlg MyDlg;
INT_PTR iResult = MyDlg.DoModal(pParent);
}
My problem is that the CMyDlg is modal but to the main dialog and not to the container or the child dialog.

What I want is simple: I want to catch a dialog box!
The dialog box pops very frequently in a website. We have to put a username and password and press OK. I checked with spy++. It doesn't have any child windows. So catching the dialog box with windows API is ruled out. It must be a HTML dialog. I have to get DOM COM interfaces of the dialog.
Another option may be to make an add-on to get the interface to IWebBrowser2 and get the events fired. The title of the dialog box is "Authentication Required". If the events will be fired for that dialog box, I can check the title using IHTMLDocument2::get_Title.But will the events be fired for HTML dialog box? How to catch that desturbing dialog box.

For a project I'm working on, I need to be able to download a file from an FTP server and store it to a predetermined location with a predetermined name. No user interaction should be needed. Because the file is rather large, and I need the main program to remain responsive, this is going to need a progress dialog.
I could write all this myself and use the MFC wininet wrappers (CInternetSession et al) to do the downloading, but... Explorer already has this, and IE has such a dialog also. It doesn't seem unreasonable to assume those dialogs are available via some API.
Is a "FTP download with dialog" available as a windows API, or do I really need to write all this myself ?

I was wondering how can we know how many items exist in a dialogbox? If there any way that i can get the items ID in a dialogbox by having just the dialogbox's object or handler? Or any way that we can get a dialogbox content by coding.

I have an mfc dialog of size 1280 X 1024 and when i change the resolution to 800 X 600, after adding scroll bar, it don't show the entire dialog contents, Seems like it clips the 800 X 600 portion.
I have handled VScroll and HScroll. It works fine for higher resolutions!

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 need to pass a variable to a dialog box.
Code:
Doc* pDoc;
Dialog dlg;
int input = dlg.DoModal();
When I call dlg.DoModal() I need to somehow pass the pDoc into the dialog box. Everything I need the variable for is taking place inside the oninitdialog function. Is there anyway to pass the variable to that function?

I have a ListCtrl on my dailog. It has a report view. In my case I have selected first row with left click of mouse and entire row is displayed in blue color as selection (as per expected) and when I right click the second row of the listctrl it displays the menu which I have added to it and the selection remains with the first row.(as expected). I have already overridden the ListCtrl class.
I want that on the right click of second row the selection should remain with the first row but this second row also should be displayed with dotted line border.

I have a slider control on a dialog box. I am playing a video file and slider moves according to the video elapsed. Suppose I have set the slider range to 100. Now till some point say 90, the slider moves to the point wherever I click the mouse. but at the last point in between some range say 90 - 100 (to the end of the slider), if I click the mouse button anywhere, slider jumps to the end.
I am using a TimeLine control where user can add more than 1 video (1, 2, 4, 8, 10 , 50 etc......), If I use only one video, slider moves as per the video progression.....Issue arises when I add more than 1 video and click on the start button, slider starts moving....Now when I drag the slider to any position or I click the mouse button anywhere on the slider control, slider thumb moves to that position and immediately jumps back to some other position. This is the Issue, I am facing.
share some sample code where slider is moving with the video showing the progress of the video.
I want to implement a functionality similar to VLC player. Wherever user clicks the mouse, slider moves to that point.

If it is possible, I'd like to know how to intercept messages sent to controls on a dialog. I'm working on a large application with a large number of dialogs, each with a number of controls on the dialog. I need to be able to intercept messages sent to these controls so that I can determine if the controls really need to take action on these messages. I could subclass each control and override the specific event handlers but due to the volume of controls in the application this could take a very long time, will introduce risk if controls are missed, and will increase maintenance costs. What I want to do is create a class which is derived from CDialog and each of the dialogs in the application would then be derived from this new dialog class. The new dialog class would intercept messages sent to any control on the dialog and if the dialog decides that the control should do something then the dialog will pass the message on to the control.
example:
CExistingDialog is derived from CNewDialog is derived from CDialog
CExistingDialog has a number of controls. When the code in CExistingDialog calls CWnd::EnableWindow on one of these controls I want CNewDialog to intercept the message, determine what should be done with the message, and then pass it on to the control.
I'm not very familiar with the messaging framework. I've tried overriding a few of the methods of CNewDialog but none of them ever receive the message to enable the window. I assume this is because the message is sent directly to the child window (the control).
Is there any way to intercept these messages? I don't know much about hooks either but is this a possible option?
