That was EXACTLY what it was, a program that "create" a screensaver.

I don't get it ... do you know or not know how to create/program a screensaver ?

You want what ? just an existing screensaver that can display pictures on the screen ? or program one that display pictures ?

I need to click on a menu item and use a linked list to display it on the blank screen below in CChildView
I'm using a linked list to store the list of menu items but am unsure of how to implement it this way
This is for a school assignment and I'm really stuck.

Have what displayed on the screen? if "it" refers to the menu item, it is already displayed on the screen else you would have been unable to click it. Confused | :confused:

How to add MENUITEM to IDR_POPUP_MENU

Hi,

I have an app that is running in the system tray. My .rc looks something like this:

IDR_POPUP_MENU MENU
BEGIN
POPUP "POPUP"
BEGIN
MENUITEM "Maximise", ID_MAXIMISE
MENUITEM SEPARATOR
MENUITEM "Exit", ID_APP_EXIT
END
END

So, whenever I right-click on the icon it shows me "Maximise", a separator and an "Exit". I want to dynamically add MENUITEM. I tried this:

CMenu menu;

if ( menu.LoadMenu( IDR_POPUP_MENU ) )
{
CMenu* pSysMenu = menu.GetSubMenu( FALSE );

if (pSysMenu != NULL)
{
CString strAboutMenu = "it works";
if (!strAboutMenu.IsEmpty())
{
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR);

// what should I put as second parameter???
//pSysMenu->AppendMenu( MF_STRING,NULL,strAboutMenu);
}

}
}

But as you can guess it didnt work. Please help.

Thanks

The second parameter is the ID of your menu item. Only separators (MF_SEPARATOR flag) can have an ID of NULL. Your two existing menu items have the ID's of ID_MAXIMISE and ID_APP_EXIT. You have to create a new ID for "it works".

You did not show where or how you are calling TrackPopupMenu() to show your menu. You have to call TrackPopupMenu using pSysMenu.

Window over Media Player full screen

Hi ! I'm developing a LabWindows (National Instruments ANSI C developement tool) application that should be able to display an ALWAYS floating panel. The only problem is the 'full screen mode' of Windows Media Player. My window is always on the top, but not if I set fullscreen in the media player. I guess that the problem should be in the exclusive control of the display made by DirectX. Is there a way to force my window to stay over ?

Thanks !!

It's an arms race - You want your window always on top and someone else wants their application always on top. It will end in tears.

It's not DirectX exclusive mode, it's a matter of race conditions. Whoever moves to the top latest wins. So what's happening is that your window is being relegated down the order when Media Player opens the fullscreen window and makes it topmost. What you'll need to do is detect (somehow) when the fullscreen window is opened, and then use SetWindowPos() to set your z-order to topmost. That should do the trick.

AFAIK It's not because of DirectX.

Have you ever tried two always on top windows. The one that calls SetWindowPos(...) with HWND_TOPMOST last will get displayed on top of the other always on top window. Thus this group acts as a different group when pressing Alt+Tab. Hence this could be the problem.

You can set up a hook to monitor what's coming up...

Thank you very much !!
I tried to do as you said, but it didn't work. Maybe because the event EVENT_LOST_FOCUS, which LabWindows Rutime engine generates, doesn't work with the full screen of Media Player.
But, using the function SetWindowPos(...) with HWND_TOPMOST, inside a timer, solves the problem.
Thank you again ! Wink | ;)

Events, messages and overridable functions can be setup via the 'properties' slide-bar. Just select the class you want to edit, open the properties dialog window, then choose from the buttons at the top.

Thanks, i figured that just a moment back, just when i got your mail.

I have justed started with VS.2003 and the IDE UI has changed a lot since VS.6. well i spend almost 2 hrs to figure this out, hope developing on 2003 IDE is lot more fun.

I thought in VS2003, they have removed this option, I was so pissed, I shouted at my GF and now she is angry.

I guess I should give her a call now Blush | :O

We moved over from VS6 just over a year now. Like you, it took a while to get used to the interface, but I love it now. The only thing that irritates me now is the Intelli-sense. It sucks! I should get myself a copy of Visual Assist X, then I would be complete! Big Grin | :-D

Well, they (WholeTomato)[^] claim it does, but I can't verify that. My department will be slowly moving us over to VS2005 in the next few months. From the feedback I've been reading here, it seems that I might not need VAssistX with VS2005 due to vastly improved intellisense features.
Fingers crossed Hmmm | :|

i think we've not read the same threads buddy !

what i've seen there about VS2005' intellisense is that it has been highly improved, but not for C++... Cry | :((

moreover, visual assist was really powerful on both VC6 and VS2003, ,so i hope that it can still improve productivity, even on VS2005 Wink | ;)
