Strange.
Is this the same in Release and in Debug ?
Do you have the same problem if you have more than two filters (try adding an Mpeg Files (*.mpeg)|*.mpeg ?
What if you exchange All Files and Avi Files in the string (so that the default extension is also the one that comes as forst in the string ) ?

That was a great idea to try the Release as well as the Debug. I didn't think of that.
Unfortunately, it also has the problem in Release.
I also added mpeg and it indeed gave me 3 choices as expected. Still the refresh problem is there.
I looked in a couple of other programs I have and the problem exists there as well. I just never noticed it until today. Maybe it is connected to .NET which I added fairly recently? Hard to believe, but who knows. It is strange that I never would have seen this before.
BTW, I have an avi file in the directory, so even if I put avi files first I will still see them properly. It is only when I pull down the combo box and change the file type that the refresh fails. I'm really stuck as to why.

Unbelievable, it is the .NET!
I can compile without it so I did so.
Without .NET it works like a charm.
I'll bet this is a bug Microsoft doesn't know about.

Just out of curiousity: does the behaviour remain if you set the OFN_EXPLORER flag as well?
I'm thinking about some events that does not occur if the OFN_EXPLORER flag is omitted, e.g. OnTypeChange.

It's supposed to be hard, otherwise anybody could do it!

That was an idea worth investigating. It turns out that OFN_EXPLORER has no connection to the problem. I added the flag and it works correctly when "Use managed extensions" is No and incorrectly when it is Yes.
Now I have complete control of when it appears. Unfortunately, in the real world I need managed extensions since I use the .NET, but at least I know where the problem is. That is more than I knew when I started to ask questions on the board.
The bottom line: the code project is very useful....

Is this a Managed C++ question? If so, have you tried here?

Now, thanks to this board, I know it is a problem with managed extensions. When I started, it never occured to me that the problem could be there.

Your code snippet works fine for me.
What happens if you use GetOpenFileName() instead?

Thanks. Look above. It is the .NET which is causing the problem.

How so? I have v1.1 of the .NET Framework installed.

Did you see my reply to Roger? I have COMPLETE control of when it happens, just turn on or off managed extensions and Voila!

Hi IlanTal,
your code worked.
Whats problem?

Likewise, thanks. It is .NET. Look above on the board.

I have a string input by user and one Static Text on Dialog.
How can i display string in Static Text as long(as many characters) as much that not exceed Static Text length on Screen.
Thanks

what do you mean by this ?! 
if you want to put some string in your static control, you can use something like this :
((CStatic*)GetDlgItem(IDC_MY_STATIC))->SetWindowText("new string");
|
|
|
|
|
an example:
user input 1000 characters.and i have to display it on Static Text in a Dialog.
I now use:(IDC_INSTALL_DES_FOLDER:Static Text)
CSize szTextSize;
CRect rect;
GetDlgItem(IDC_INSTALL_DES_FOLDER)->GetClientRect(&rect);
int i= 0;
MapDialogRect(rect);
::GetTextExtentPoint32(dc.m_hDC, m_strDesFolder, m_strDesFolder.GetLength(), &szTextSize);
while (szTextSize.cx > rect.Width() - 180)
{
::GetTextExtentPoint32(dc.m_hDC, m_strDesFolder, m_strDesFolder.GetLength() - i, &szTextSize);
i++;
}
if (i != 0)
{
m_strDesFolder.Delete(m_strDesFolder.GetLength() - i, i);
m_strDesFolder += _T("...");
}
but when user put something like abcssssssssssssssssssssssssssss...(ex 100 s character)
it work not well

Are you trying to resize the static control depending on the text it is to display? If so you can use the DrawText function to calculate the rect for the text and use this to then create the control.

|
|
GetDlgItem is not a nice way of doing it ,control variable should be more fine,<imho>

UpdateData() is much more crap !!!
|
|
|
|
|
Yes it send an EN_CHANGE to the parent giving a false information of text change by the user.

Why the superfluous cast?

handle the WM_CHAR message and in that every time chec the count of characters. and limit to it to that length provided to the static text

Hi fcoder ,
You can use SetWinwodwText m_YourStatic.SetWindowText("yourtext");
and you can calculate of text
example if text length>50 then write only 10 character and then use ...
or you can change font from Control or MoveWindow to change size of control
|

My control inherit from list control of icon,and i reload OnCustomDraw
event.The list need refresh every minute, but OnCustomDraw will be executed when every item drawing, so the control flicks badly, how to avoid?
