CSizingControlBar - a resizable
control bar by Cristi Posea.
Webmaster's note: the CSizingControlBar class used
in this code is an earlier version; follow the link
above for the latest one.
Features
The Control
bar like in DevStudio, which has Tab
Controls with different Views (like
TreeViews) and it can be docked and resized.
Instructions
Add the following
class to your project:
CSizingControlBar
CSizingTabCtrlBar
Add a member variable
to CMainFrame
(in mainfrm.h):
CSizingTabCtrlBar m_wndSTCBar;
Create the bar in CMainFrame::OnCreate().
Then set bar styles, enable it to dock... like any control
bar. Be sure to add IDW_PROP_BAR
to the "resource.h" and to add the bitmap IDB_TABIMAGES
to your resources.
m_wndSTCBar.Create(this, CSize(200, 1), IDW_PROP_BAR);
m_wndSTCBar.SetBarStyle(m_wndToolBar.GetBarStyle() |
CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC);
m_wndSTCBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
DockControlBar(&m_wndSTCBar, AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT);
m_wndSTCBar.AddView("Database", RUNTIME_CLASS(CClassView));
m_wndSTCBar.AddView("Files", RUNTIME_CLASS(CFileView));
As you can see, the
different views are added by calling
m_wndSTCBar.AddView("Files", RUNTIME_CLASS(CFileView));
Thats the only thing
you have to do, to add a view!
Override CMainFrame::RecalcLayout().
Note: use the base framewnd class member function, ie if
you have an SDI application replace CMDIFrameWnd
with CFrameWnd
below.
void CMainFrame::RecalcLayout(BOOL bNotify)
{
CMDIFrameWnd::RecalcLayout(bNotify);
CMDIFrameWnd::RecalcLayout(bNotify);
}
To call a view from the
Mainframe:
CFileView* pView = (CFileView*)
m_wndSTCBar.GetView(RUNTIME_CLASS(CFileView));
pView->UpdateView();
m_wndSTCBar.SetActiveView(RUNTIME_CLASS(CFileView));
