I don't know - but looking at the documentation, CMfcOutlookBar inherits a method called "HasAutoHideMode" from CBaseTabbedPane - it also has a method called "SetAutoHideMode". Why not experiment - try calling that method from your application and see if your Outlook bar auto-hides...

Sir,

So is there any other way i can achieve it?? The the problem is that i have already done all the functionality on the outlook bar.. can i add the full CMFCOutlookBar on CDockablepane?? i have tried that also but it is also not working.. Confused | :confused:

I dont kno if i m wrong but adding all my functionality to individual pCDockablepane and then docking it will help??

Thanks in Advance

It may be a little late, but here's how I'm doing it:

1) In the frame-window's OnCreate() method, I add the following code just before the call to CreateOutlookToolbar()

<br />
// enable Visual Studio 2005 style docking window auto-hide behavior<br />
EnableAutoHidePanes(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);<br />

2) In the CreateOutlookToolbar() method, I change the call to bar.Create() to include ControlBarStyles as illustrated below:

<br />
if (!bar.Create(strTemp, this, CRect(0, 0, nInitialWidth, 32000), uiID, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_LEFT, AFX_CBRS_AUTOHIDE | AFX_CBRS_RESIZE))<br />
{<br />
  return FALSE; // fail to create<br />
}<br />

Quite simple really, but with one slight draw-back: you don't get to see the stick-pin icon! No, in order to actually have the outlook bar auto-hide, you have to right-click the caption on top... Not a big deal for me - I'm gonna try and fix it later, but for now it will do.

Hope this helps,
Jumpster

Edit: Realized I missed a step... Added it as step 1 above.

Better late than never.

If found that you can display a pin by adding a gripper to the outlook bar using the following code (notice the additional CBRS_GRIPPER style):

if (!bar.Create(strTemp, this, CRect(0, 0, nInitialWidth, 32000), uiID, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_LEFT | CBRS_GRIPPER, AFX_CBRS_AUTOHIDE | AFX_CBRS_RESIZE))
{
return FALSE; // fail to create
}

Unfortunately, you do get a duplication of the current name of the pane in the gripper as well as the underlying CMFCOutlookBarTabCtrl.

sorry to being sarcastic! i think you are learning MFC.. Try to search Class reference in MSDN.

This will help in future, if not now. anyways CString::Find can resolve your problem

You can use StrStrI function.For using it u need to include "shlwapi.h"

e.g
CString Str="dc.xml,Copy";
LPTSTR pExist = StrStrI(Str, L"Copy");
if(pExist)
printf("Str contains Copy");
else
printf("Str does not contains Copy");

Why would you not use the find method that's built into CString, if CString is already being used? Not to mention that you will need to explicitly link to shlwapi.lib! Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

convert TCHAR to CString

hi,
i have the below code..
TCHAR buffer[SIZEOFTCHAR];
::GetSystemDirectory(buffer,SIZEOFTCHAR);
CString csPath;
csPath+=_T("");

i want to copy value in buffer to csPath and i want to append other string to csPath.Please let me know...

No need to convert anything, you can simply assign your buffer in your CString object:

CString csPath = buffer;

If you need to concatenate your buffer at the end of the CString content, you can also do it like this:

CString csPath = "Something";
csPath += buffer;

BTW, what is SIZEOFTCHAR ? What is its value ? If it is the size of one character, then your string will only be able to contain 1 single character, so I guess this is not really what you want.
