Data Members

Name Description
CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::m_uiShowBarDelay Specifies the length of time that a user must hold the mouse button down before the drop-down toolbar appears.

Remarks

A CMFCDropDownToolBarButton differs from an ordinary button in that it has a small arrow in the lower-right corner of the button. After the user selects a button from the drop-down toolbar, the framework displays its icon on the top-level toolbar button (the button with the small arrow in the lower-right corner).

For information about how to implement a drop-down toolbar, see CMFCDropDownToolBar Class.

The CMFCDropDownToolBarButton object can be exported to a CMFCToolBarMenuButton Class object and displayed as a menu button with a pop-up menu.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::CopyFrom

Copies the properties of another toolbar button to the current button.

virtual void CopyFrom(const CMFCToolBarButton& src);

Parameters

[in] src
A reference to the source button from which to copy.

Remarks

Call this method to copy another toolbar button to this toolbar button. src must be of type CMFCDropDownToolbarButton.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::CMFCDropDownToolbarButton

Constructs a CMFCDropDownToolbarButton object.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton();

 
CMFCDropDownToolbarButton(
    LPCTSTR lpszName,  
    CMFCDropDownToolBar* pToolBar);

Parameters

[in] lpszName
The default text of the button.

[in] pToolBar
A pointer to the CMFCDropDownToolBar object that is displayed when the user presses the button.

Remarks

The second overload of the constructor copies to the drop-down button the first button from the toolbar that pToolBar specifies.

Typically, a drop-down toolbar button uses the text from the most recently used button in the toolbar that pToolBar specifies. It uses the text specified by lpszName when the button is converted to a menu button or is displayed in the Commands tab of the Customize dialog box. For more information about the Customize dialog box, see CMFCToolBarsCustomizeDialog Class.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to construct an object of the CMFCDropDownToolbarButton class. This code snippet is part of the Visual Studio Demo sample.

   // Add dropdown resources button
    // CMFCToolBarsCustomizeDialog* pDlgCust
    // CMFCDropDownToolBar m_wndToolbarResource
    pDlgCust->AddButton(_T("Build"), CMFCDropDownToolbarButton(_T("Add Resource"), &m_wndToolbarResource));

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::DropDownToolbar

Opens a drop-down toolbar.

BOOL DropDownToolbar(CWnd* pWnd);

Parameters

[in] pWnd
The parent window of the drop-down frame, or NULL to use the parent window of the drop-down toolbar button.

Return Value

Nonzero if the method is successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

The CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClick method calls this method to open the drop-down toolbar when the user presses and holds the toolbar button down.

This methods creates the drop-down toolbar by using the CMFCDropDownFrame::Create method. If the parent toolbar is docked vertically, this method positions the drop-down toolbar either to the left-hand or right-hand side of the parent toolbar, depending on the fit. Otherwise, this method positions the drop-down toolbar underneath the parent toolbar.

This method fails if pWnd is NULL and the drop-down toolbar button does not have a parent window.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::ExportToMenuButton

Copies text from the toolbar button to a menu.

virtual BOOL ExportToMenuButton(CMFCToolBarMenuButton& menuButton) const;

Parameters

[in] menuButton
A reference to the target menu button.

Return Value

Nonzero if the method succeeds; otherwise 0.

Remarks

This method calls the base class implementation ( CMFCToolBarButton::ExportToMenuButton) and then appends to the target menu button a pop-up menu that contains each toolbar menu item in this button. This method does not append sub-menus to the pop-up menu.

This method fails if the parent toolbar, m_pToolBar, is NULL or the base class implementation returns FALSE.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::GetDropDownToolBar

Retrieves the drop-down toolbar that is associated with the button.

CMFCToolBar* GetDropDownToolBar() const;

Return Value

The drop-down toolbar that is associated with the button.

Remarks

This method returns the m_pToolBar data member.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::IsDropDown

Determines whether the drop-down toolbar is currently open.

BOOL IsDropDown() const;

Return Value

Nonzero if the drop-down toolbar is currently open; otherwise 0.

Remarks

The framework opens the drop-down toolbar by using the CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::DropDownToolbar method. The framework closes the drop-down toolbar when the user presses the left-mouse button in the non-client area of the drop-down toolbar.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::IsExtraSize

Determines whether the button can be displayed with an extended border.

virtual BOOL IsExtraSize() const;

Return Value

Nonzero if the toolbar button can be displayed with an extended border; otherwise 0.

Remarks

For more information about extended borders, see CMFCToolBarButton::IsExtraSize.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::m_uiShowBarDelay

Specifies the length of time that a user must hold the mouse button down before the drop-down toolbar appears.

static UINT m_uiShowBarDelay;

Remarks

The delay time is measured in milliseconds. The default value is 500. You can set another delay by changing the value of this shared data member.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnCalculateSize

Called by the framework to calculate the size of the button for the specified device context and docking state.

virtual SIZE OnCalculateSize(
    CDC* pDC,  
    const CSize& sizeDefault,  
    BOOL bHorz);

Parameters

[in] pDC
The device context that displays the button.

[in] sizeDefault
The default size of the button.

[in] bHorz
The dock state of the parent toolbar. This parameter is TRUE if the toolbar is docked horizontally or is floating, or FALSE if the toolbar is docked vertically.

Return Value

A SIZE structure that contains the dimensions of the button, in pixels.

Remarks

This method extends the base class implementation ( CMFCToolBarButton::OnCalculateSize) by adding the width of the drop-down arrow to the horizontal dimension of the button size.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnChangeParentWnd

Called by the framework when the button is inserted into a new toolbar.

virtual void OnChangeParentWnd(CWnd* pWndParent);

Parameters

[in] pWndParent
The new parent window.

Remarks

This method overrides the base class implementation ( CMFCToolBarButton::OnChangeParentWnd) by clearing the text label ( CMFCToolBarButton::m_strText) and setting the CMFCToolBarButton::m_bText and CMFCToolBarButton::m_bUserButton data members to FALSE.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClick

Called by the framework when the user clicks the mouse button.

virtual BOOL OnClick(
    CWnd* pWnd,  
    BOOL bDelay = TRUE);

Parameters

[in] pWnd
The parent window of the toolbar button.

[in] bDelay
TRUE if the message should be handled with a delay.

Return Value

Nonzero if the button processes the click message; otherwise 0.

Remarks

This method extends the base class implementation, CMFCToolBarButton::OnClick, by updating the state of the drop-down toolbar.

When a user clicks the toolbar button, this method creates a timer that waits the length of time specified by the CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::m_uiShowBarDelay data member and then opens the drop-down toolbar by using the CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::DropDownToolbar method. This method closes the drop-down toolbar the second time the user clicks the toolbar button.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClickUp

Called by the framework when the user releases the mouse button.

virtual BOOL OnClickUp();

Return Value

Nonzero if the button processes the click message; otherwise 0.

Remarks

This method extends the base class implementation, CMFCToolBarButton::OnClickUp, by updating the state of the drop-down toolbar.

This method stops the drop-down toolbar timer if it is active. It closes the drop-down toolbar if it is open.

For more information about the drop-down toolbar and drop-down toolbar timer, see CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClick.

CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnContextHelp

Called by the framework when the parent toolbar handles a WM_HELPHITTEST message.

virtual BOOL OnContextHelp(CWnd* pWnd);

Parameters

[in] pWnd
The parent window of the toolbar button.

Return Value

Nonzero if the button processes the help message; otherwise 0.

Remarks

This method extends the base class implementation ( CMFCToolBarButton::OnContextHelp) by calling the CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClick method with bDelay set to FALSE. This method returns the value that is returned by CMFCDropDownToolbarButton::OnClick.

For more information about the WM_HELPHITTEST message, see TN028: Context-Sensitive Help Support.
