Owner-Draw Menus

Owner-Draw Menus

Introduction

Owner-draw menus are custom visual styles that developers can provide in their applications if they want visual styles other than the default styles provided by the system. In previous versions of the Windows® operating system, applications needed to use owner-draw menus to produce menu items that included an image beside the menu item text. This technique resulted in menus that did not conform with the visual style of the system-rendered menus that users are accustomed to using. Windows Vista® provides a way of implementing this common pattern without using owner-draw menus through the use of bitmaps with an alpha channel as the representation of images.

Applications that need more expressiveness in the rendering of menu items can still use owner-draw menus, but can now use the themes supported by the operating system to produce a rendering that is consistent with the design of the system.

This article discusses how to use the Visual Style API provided in Windows Vista to develop owner-draw menus.

Visual Style API Basics

The Visual Style API, provided in Windows Vista, eliminates a common reason to use owner-draw menus, but developers will still need to use owner-draw menus if visual style behaviors other than the default styles provided in Windows Vista are desired.

Note   Windows Vista provides alpha-blended bitmaps, which enable menu items to be shown without using owner-draw menu items. For information about how to avoid owner-draw menus and how to convert icons into bitmaps, see Visual Style Menus.

The Visual Style API enables the measurement, layout, and rendering of many of the visual elements, using the VSCLASS_MENU class. However, a significant amount of work is required to develop and maintain owner-draw menus. Now that it is possible to draw visually appealing menus in Windows Vista and that there is a new way to develop attractive icons using standard menus, the amount of owner-draw menu code that developers need to write is reduced dramatically, leaving more time for the innovation of core products.

The following table describes a few Visual Style API concepts.

Term

Definition

Theme handles (HTHEME) 

HTHEME and the desired visual (VSCLASS_MENU for our purposes) is used to call the OpenThemeData() function. The call returns a NULL handle if the current color scheme has styling disabled.

Important   Pay attention to the WM_SETTINGCHANGE message handler, which handles the message that is broadcasted when a system setting changes and regenerates the HTHEME. The theme handle needs to be reacquired to determine whether the user has changed the theme. For example, if the user switches to a visual scheme such as Windows Classic, which does not have themed elements, a NULL handle is returned when OpenThemeData() is called. If the call returns a NULL handle, consider rendering the visual using a non-Visual Style API.

Theme Parts and States

A visual element is made up of parts. Each part can have multiple states.  For example, a button can have a background part and different states that differentiate between pressed and non-pressed states.  The sample code provided in this article demonstrates how to translate owner-draw fState flags into menu parts and state IDs. Vssym32.h contains the part and state ID for every visual class.

Measurements

Use the GetThemePartSize() and GetThemeMargins() functions to determine the size and margins for a part/state pair respectively. Use the GetThemeTextExtent() function to measure the length of text strings.

Drawing

Use the DrawThemeBackground() and DrawThemeText() functions to render according to the current color scheme. For more information, see "Visual Styles Reference" in the MSDN library.

The sample code provided in this article presents a simplified version of menu rendering to explain the core drawing concepts. 

Sample Application

The following sample code creates a simple application that uses dialogs to demonstrate Windows Vista menu features. It draws an owner-draw menu using Windows XP-style and Windows Vista-style rendering.

The application, named CVistaMenuApp.cpp, demonstrates a simple custom behavior: a context menu that highlights the previously selected item. A drop-down menu enables the user to choose a standard menu, an owner-draw menu with standard rendering, an owner-draw menu using the Visual Style API, or the new Windows Vista menu parts.

Note

The code example in this article does not use every part and state. There is no submenu rendering, it does not cover the menu bar, and it does not line up necessarily to the pixel with the menu rendering of the system.

Structure of the Test Application

The MENUITEMDATA Structure

The MENUITEMDATA structure holds the owner-draw data. The GetMenuItem() function returns a MENUITEM structure that contains all the information that can be retrieved.

struct MENUITEM

{

    MENUITEMINFO    mii;

    MENUITEMDATA    mid;

    WCHAR           szItemText[256];

};

The IOwnerDrawMenu Interface

The test application (CVistaMenuApp.cpp) provides a drop-down list box that enables users to switch between menu types: standard, owner-draw, and owner-draw using the Visual Style APIs. To make this switching easier, the application defines the IOwnerDrawMenu interface and two implementers of the interface (CClassicOwnerDrawMenu and CVistaOwnerDrawMenu).

interface IOwnerDrawMenu

{

    virtual HRESULT Initialize(HWND hwndParent) = 0;

    virtual void MeasureItem(__in MENUITEM *pmi, __inout

MEASUREITEMSTRUCT *pmis) = 0;

    virtual void DrawItem(__in MENUITEM *pmi, __in DRAWITEMSTRUCT

*pdis) = 0;

    virtual void SelectedItem(int id) = 0;

    virtual HRESULT SettingChange() = 0;

    virtual void Release() = 0;

};

The SelectedItem() Method

The SelectedItem() method is used by the class to determine which item should receive special highlighting. The test application calls this method with the previously selected menu item.

The CShellSimpleApp Class

TheCShellSimpleApp class is essentially a dialog box that implements the outer shell of the program. The WM_MEASUREITEM, WM_DRAWITEM, and WM_SETTINGCHANGE message handlers are the relevant portions of this class, along with the _SetMenuType() method, which enables users to switch between menu types.
