Update only a part of a View with OnUpdateAllViews 2nd !

Hi,
i programmed a little app (SDI + RichCtrl).
In this app. text is printed to the view when the program is started.
When the user pushes the Button the ChangeText() fnct. in the doc will be called which only updates the rect with a new text.

For a better understanding here is a pic:
http://filehosting.at/images/download.php?file=585bdf52f01deea892f9e8b46fb652aa

I tried with the UpdateAllViews() in the doc and OnUpdate() in the view.cpp.
But it will not work !
To avoid posting too much code i coded a small sample which the same problem, perhaps you could have a look in the code ??? $Shucks | :-\$
I really couldn't get it to work Cry | :((

This is the code from the doc:

CString CON_UPDATE_DEMODoc::ChangeText()
{
	CRect MyRect(0,0, 100, 100);
	CObject* pHint = (CObject*)&MyRect;


	m_cstrAusgabe  = " BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER \r\n\ BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER";
	m_cstrAusgabe += " BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER \r\n\ BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER";
	m_cstrAusgabe += " BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER \r\n\ BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER";
	m_cstrAusgabe += " BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER \r\n\ BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER";
	m_cstrAusgabe += " BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER \r\n\ BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER BLUBBER";


	UpdateAllViews(NULL, 1, pHint);
	return m_cstrAusgabe;
}

and this from the view:

void CON_UPDATE_DEMOView::OnUpdate(CView* pSender, LPARAM lHint, CObject* pHint) 
{
	CMainFrame			*pMF	= DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CMainFrame,	AfxGetMainWnd());
	CON_UPDATE_DEMODoc	*pDoc	= DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CON_UPDATE_DEMODoc,	pMF->GetActiveDocument());	// 
	


	m_Rich.SetWindowText(pDoc->m_cstrAusgabe);
	if (pHint != 0)
	{	
		InvalidateRect((CRect*)pHint, TRUE);

		m_Rich.SetWindowText(pDoc->m_cstrAusgabe);
		return;

	}
	m_Rich.SetModify(TRUE);	
	CView::OnUpdate(pSender, lHint, pHint);
	
}

Since m_Rich is a CRichEditCtrl, why not just derive your view from CRichEditView? Or, you can derive it from CFormView and add a CRichEditCtrl to it. Otherwise, the way you rare going about this is all wrong.

CBitmapbutton Behaviour

Dear All,

I have some problem in displaying the Cbitmatbutton during the SetFocus and KillFocus event. Interestingly, if I disable the bitmapbutton and load the bitmap then it is working fine. If I didnt use the Enablewindow method then the bitmap is not loaded correctly.

But when I use the Enablewindow method in PreTranslateMessage() I have some other problem, that is I need to change the bitmap when pressing the Enter key in the button. If I disable the window and change means it is working but the keyboard event is not accepted after I disble and enable after pressing the enter key. This means that I cannot use the keyboard inputs after pressing the enter key. Please refer the below code:

My exact requirement is that, I need to change the bitmap of the button on Lostfocus, Killfocus and while pressing Enter key.

BOOL CdfdgDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg) 
{ 
	 if((pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN) && (pMsg->wParam == VK_RETURN))
	 {
		 CWnd* pWnd = GetFocus();
		 int CtrlID = pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID();
		if(CtrlID==IDC_BUTTON4)
			{
				m_button4.EnableWindow(false);
				m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP4,IDB_BITMAP4,NULL,NULL);
				m_button4.EnableWindow(true);
				return TRUE;
			}
		
	 }
 
	 return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg); 
} 

void CdfdgDlg::OnBnKillfocusButton4()//Method for Lost focus
{
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
	m_button4.EnableWindow(false);
	bool val=m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP1,NULL,IDB_BITMAP1,NULL);
	m_button4.EnableWindow(true);
}

void CdfdgDlg::OnBnSetfocusButton4()//Method for Setfocus
{
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
	m_button4.EnableWindow(false);
	bool val=m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP2,NULL,IDB_BITMAP2,NULL);
	m_button4.EnableWindow(true);
	m_button4.SetFocus();
}

1. If your dialog is modal, PreTranslateMessage doesn't work[^].

2. You don't need to disable and then re-enable the button just to change its bitmap. Instead, do something like this:

m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP1,0,IDB_BITMAP1,0);
m_button4.Invalidate();
m_button4.UpdateWindow()

Your disable/enable calls have a side effect of getting the button to repaint. Unfortunately, they also change the state of the button twice, which creates a lot of ugly flicker.

3. In your OnBnSetfocusButton4() handler, you call SetFocus on the button that you're being notified has received the focus. That's not going to do anything useful.

Hello Gary,

You are genius. It is working properly for SetFocus, KillFocus and also when ENTER key is pressed, but now I got a new problem. The problem is that, when a ENTER key is pressed on the CBitmapbutton I display a "MessageBox", due to this MessageBox focus to the control is lost and bitmap is changed as per the events in KillFocus and when the control is gained to the control the SetFocus event is called.

I want to make the button as it is when I display a MessageBox after pressing ENTER key. Please advice.

You might try something like this:

class CdfdgDlg
{
//...
private:
  bool HandlingEnterKey;
};
CdfdgDlg::CdfdgDlg()
  : HandlingEnterKey(false)
{
};
BOOL CdfdgDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg)
{
  if((pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN) && (pMsg->wParam == VK_RETURN))
  {
    if (GetFocus() == &m_button4)
    {
       HandlingEnterKey = true;
       MessageBox(/* ... */);
       HandlingEnterKey = false;
    }
  }
  return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}
void CdfdgDlg::OnBnKillfocusButton4()//Method for Lost focus
{
  if (!HandlingEnterKey)
  {
    m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP1,NULL,IDB_BITMAP1,NULL);
    m_button4.Invalidate();
    m_button4.UpdateWindow();
  }
}
void CdfdgDlg::OnBnSetfocusButton4()//Method for Setfocus
{
  if (!HandlingEnterKey)
  {
    m_button4.LoadBitmaps(IDB_BITMAP2,NULL,IDB_BITMAP2,NULL);
    m_button4.Invalidate();
    m_button4.UpdateWindow();
  }
}

I'vd added a flag to your dialog class. This flag, HandlingEnterKey is set to true while you're displaying the message box. When it is true, the logic that changes the bitmaps on the buttons in the lose focus / get focus handlers will leave the bitmaps alone. If I understand correctly, this will do what you want.

Good luck.

The best way to use tab controls is to create your views on the fly depending on which tab is used. You can then create each view depending on the tab that was clicked. To show the views you can create them and move them to be the size of a static control you place in the tab control (I usually place a picture holder). Look at CWnd::Create() and CWnd::MoveWindow(). Remember, the Rectangle for the MoveWindow contains the dimensions of your static control.

Hi all,

I m using SDI type splitter application i want it is always show as maximize.

so i m using ShowWindow(SW_MAXIMIZE); in InitInstance() of .cpp file of application.

and in CMainFrame class in PreCreateWindow (CREATESTRUCT& cs)
function use this code.
cs.style = WS_OVERLAPPED|WS_SYSMENU |WS_MINIMIZEBOX|WS_BORDER;
return CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);

Using of all, these the window is initially maximize,or the Maximize or Restore button is disabled but on double clicking on titlebor it is minimized.

How can disable the function of double clicking on Title bar.

Thanks in advance.

Just Use this code.

BOOL CMainFrame::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if (pMsg->message == WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK)
return TRUE; // message handled or ignored

return CFrameWnd::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}

Just add this to your PreCreateWindow (instead of what you show)

cs.style &= ~(WS_THICKFRAME | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX);

Hope that helps.
