CMFCToolBar Class

The CMFCToolBar class resembles CToolBar Class, but provides additional support for user interface features. These include flat toolbars, toolbars with hot images, large icons, pager buttons, locked toolbars, rebar controls, text under images, background images, and tabbed toolbars. The CMFCToolBar class also contains built-in support for user customization of toolbars and menus, drag-and-drop between toolbars and menus, combo box buttons, edit box buttons, color pickers, and roll-up buttons.

Remarks

To incorporate a CMFCToolBar object into your application, follow these steps:

1. Add a CMFCToolBar object to the main frame window.

2. When you process the WM_CREATE message for the main frame window, call either CMFCToolBar::Create or CMFCToolBar::CreateEx to create the toolbar and specify its style.

3. Call CBasePane::EnableDocking to specify the docking style.

To insert a special button, such as a combo box or drop-down toolbar, reserve a dummy button in the parent resource, and replace the dummy button at runtime by using CMFCToolBar::ReplaceButton. For more information, see Walkthrough: Putting Controls On Toolbars.

CMFCToolBar is the base class for the MFC Library classes CMFCMenuBar Class, CMFCPopupMenuBar Class, and CMFCDropDownToolBar Class.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to use various methods in the CMFCToolBar class. The example shows how to set the text of the window label of the tool bar, set the borders, set the style of the pane, and enable the Add or Remove Buttons button that appears on the end of the toolbar. This code snippet is part of the IE Demo sample.

   CMFCToolBar     m_wndToolBar;


...


    m_wndToolBar.SetWindowText (_T("Standard"));
    m_wndToolBar.SetBorders ();

    //------------------------------------ 
    // Remove toolbar gripper and borders: 
    //------------------------------------
    m_wndToolBar.SetPaneStyle (m_wndToolBar.GetPaneStyle() &
        ~(CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_BORDER_TOP | CBRS_BORDER_BOTTOM | CBRS_BORDER_LEFT | CBRS_BORDER_RIGHT));

    m_wndToolBar.EnableCustomizeButton (TRUE, ID_VIEW_CUSTOMIZE, _T("Customize..."));
