Without using sucky MFC. Bikram Singh Re: Small Challenge for all you experts Johan Rosengren13-Jun-04 3:10 Johan Rosengren 13-Jun-04 3:10  would have loved to answer, but i dont care to experiment with SDK-programming. SDK-programming sucks big time. Stop using it dude! Give MFC a try, and you'll never come back to SDK-programming for any of your UI-related tasks. Infact, the only reason SDK is good is: none... Thats it. From a professional programmers perspective. *laughter* Re: Small Challenge for all you experts bikram singh13-Jun-04 19:34 bikram singh 13-Jun-04 19:34  Good for you. I dont use SDK programming except for "lower-level" tasks such as this. I assure you, if you use C++ Builder once, you would probably know why I think MFC sucks. Bikram Singh Re: Small Challenge for all you experts Johan Rosengren13-Jun-04 19:57 Johan Rosengren 13-Jun-04 19:57  Well, you said "without using MFC". Do you think this is a C++ Builder forum? Now, as you don't seem very experienced, let me explain a few things: MFC is a framework. You can use MFC with MSCVC++, but also CodeWarrior and the old Borland C++. C++ Builder is a development environment. I don't know the name of the current underlying framework - in the pre-Builder days, it was OWL. VCL, perhaps? Comparing the development environments, C++ Builder (which I have not used) was loosely built on Delphi, (which I have used). Delphi is a RAD-tool, and if you have difficulties with other development tools, you might want to stay with C++ Builder, and ask questions in appropriate foras. I'm sure that there are newsgroups targetted specifically to C++ Builder. But of course, you are what is commonly called a troll, which I am - sad to say - currently feeding. To summarize, my suggestion is that you either get a life, or haunt foras where you will actually get some answers. I have used more development environment than you can comfortably shake a stick at, so I think I'll leave your puerile suggestion where it belongs Re: Small Challenge for all you experts bikram singh13-Jun-04 20:26 bikram singh 13-Jun-04 20:26  Johan Rosengren wrote: Do you think this is a C++ Builder forum?

I guess you get your kicks out of abusing people. You obvisouly have a rigid mindset. I said "sucky MFC" not "sucky Mr. X so-and-so". You need to grow up. And finally, Stop Flaming. Stick with the program.

Bikram Singh Re: Small Challenge for all you experts Ravi Bhavnani14-Jun-04 1:26 Ravi Bhavnani 14-Jun-04 1:26  Would CBN_SELCHANGE help? That notifies you when the active selection in the dropdown list changes. You get another notification (CBN_SELENDOK or CBN_SELENDCANCEL, depending on whether the user made a selection or pressed Esc) when the listbox closes. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Articles | Freeware | Music ravib@ravib.com Re: Small Challenge for all you experts bikram singh14-Jun-04 2:54 bikram singh 14-Jun-04 2:54  That doesnt work either The only notification I'm getting on the dropped-down listbox is WM_CTLCOLORLISTBOX, which I get each time I do a mouse-over on an item. Nothing else! I can "capture" a right-click on an item, using GetKeyState(VK_RBUTTON), but that only works bcos I change the item-selection while keeping the R button pressed, which causes a WM_CTLCOLORLISTBOX message , in which I call GetKeyState() as above. But this isnt a solution for me! Spy++ shows no messages except WM_CTLCOLORLISTBOX And thank you for helping out ! Bikram Singh Done it ! bikram singh14-Jun-04 3:01 bikram singh 14-Jun-04 3:01  Ultimately, I had to subclass the combobox' listbox. Was wanting to avoid doing it though. But well, if you cant fight em join em i guess! Bikram Singh how to add menu on dialog? vividtang13-Jun-04 1:19 vividtang 13-Jun-04 1:19  hi: all my program is based on dialog,but i want to add menu for it, i insert a menu resource and with the instruction of classwizard select associate the menu with my dialog,but when i do this ,once runing i found no menu on dialog,why , please lend me a hand. thx Re: how to add menu on dialog? bikram singh13-Jun-04 1:33 bikram singh 13-Jun-04 1:33  would have loved to answer, but i dont care to experiment with MFC. MFC sucks big time. Stop using it dude! Give C++ Builder a try, and you'll never come back to VC++ for any of your UI-related tasks. Infact, the only reason VC++ is good is: fast "code-completion". Thats it. From a programmers perspective. Bikram Singh Re: how to add menu on dialog? toxcct13-Jun-04 3:05 toxcct 13-Jun-04 3:05  hey, who do you think you are ??? if you don't like visual C++, don't use it... and don't register to codeproject either... moreover, vividtang was asking about adding a menu into a dialog, and your answer don't have any reason to be here... poor boy you are TOXCCT >>> GEII power Re: how to add menu on dialog? toxcct13-Jun-04 3:02 toxcct 13-Jun-04 3:02  rigth click onto your dialog and select properties in the context menu. there, you have a property called menu. select the menu you just created (and saved with an explicit name) in the associated combobox... there you dialog have its menu... TOXCCT >>> GEII power Re: how to add menu on dialog? Johan Rosengren13-Jun-04 3:07 Johan Rosengren 13-Jun-04 3:07  You'll have to associate the resources, if you have not already done that. In MSVC++, you select the dialog box properties in the resource editor, and select the menu from the dropdown Menu. Note that you will not be able to see the menu in the resource editor - it only shows when running the program. A window never get focus? uniqueworld13-Jun-04 0:51 uniqueworld 13-Jun-04 0:51  How can I make my app not get focus like On-Screen keyboard in XP. I try to use WM_MOUSEACTIVATE with return value MA_NOACTIVATE but I can't.When I click button in my dialog,it activates.So i can't send key events to other applications(I use SendInput). Please help me. Re: A window never get focus? bikram singh13-Jun-04 1:31 bikram singh 13-Jun-04 1:31  Information not enough for a good answer. 1. Use EnableWindow(hwnd,FALSE) to disable any mouse or kbd input to the window. This is the only suggestion as of now... Bikram Singh Re: A window never get focus? toxcct13-Jun-04 3:08 toxcct 13-Jun-04 3:08  if you want the focus to bet set at the creation of your dialog, call Cwnd::SetFocus() into OnInitDialog() and make this function return TRUE. if you just need to set the focus on a control when doing someting into the dialog, just call SetFocus(). TOXCCT >>> GEII power Re: A window never get focus? Behzad Ebrahimi13-Jun-04 4:24 Behzad Ebrahimi 13-Jun-04 4:24  I think that you must call SetFocus in WM_SETFOCUS and pass its lparam to SetFocus! Is that right? Re: A window never get focus? toxcct13-Jun-04 4:27 toxcct 13-Jun-04 4:27  WM_SETFOCUS is a message, not a function. moreover, you can call SetFocus() anywhere (in a handler you created for example) TOXCCT >>> GEII power Re: A window never get focus? Behzad Ebrahimi13-Jun-04 4:38 Behzad Ebrahimi 13-Jun-04 4:38  It is right, WM_SETFOCUS is a message. When a window receive this message, it can reject its focus by calling SetFocus!
