Remarks

A pager control is a window that contains another window that is linear and larger than the containing window, and enables you to scroll the contained window into view. The pager control displays two scroll buttons that automatically disappear when the contained window is scrolled to its farthest extent, and reappear otherwise. You can create a pager control that scrolls either horizontally or vertically.

For example, if your application has a toolbar that is not wide enough to show all of its items, you can assign the toolbar to a pager control and users will be able to scroll the toolbar to the left or right to access all of the items. Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 4.0 (commctrl.dll version 4.71) introduces the pager control.

The CPagerCtrl class is derived from the CWnd class. For more information and an illustration of a pager control, see Pager Controls.

Return Value

true if the specified button is in invisible state; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Windows makes the scroll button in a particular direction invisible when the contained window is scrolled to its farthest extent because clicking the button further cannot bring more of the contained window into view.

This method sends the PGM_GETBUTTONSTATE message, which is described in the Windows SDK. It then tests whether the state that is returned is PGF_INVISIBLE. For more information, see the Return Value section of the PGM_GETBUTTONSTATE message.

Example

The following example uses the CPagerCtrl::IsButtonInvisible method to determine whether the pager control's left and right scroll buttons are visible.

void CCSplitButton_s2Dlg::OnXIsbuttoninvisible()
{
    BOOL bLeft  = m_pager.IsButtonInvisible(PGB_TOPORLEFT);
    BOOL bRight = m_pager.IsButtonInvisible(PGB_BOTTOMORRIGHT);
    CString str;
    str.Format(_T("The left button is%s visible; the right button is%s visible."), 
        (bLeft   ? _T(" not"):_T("")), 
        (bRight  ? _T(" not"):_T("")));
    MessageBox(str);
}

CPagerCtrl::IsButtonNormal

Indicates whether the specified scroll button of the current pager control is in normal state.

BOOL IsButtonNormal(int iButton) const;  

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] iButton Indicates the button for which the state is retrieved. If the pager control style is PGS_HORZ, specify PGB_TOPORLEFT for the left button and PGB_BOTTOMORRIGHT for the right button. If the pager control style is PGS_VERT, specify PGB_TOPORLEFT for the top button and PGB_BOTTOMORRIGHT for the bottom button. For more information, see Pager Control Styles.

Return Value

true if the specified button is in normal state; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_GETBUTTONSTATE message, which is described in the Windows SDK. It then tests whether the state that is returned is PGF_NORMAL. For more information, see the Return Value section of the PGM_GETBUTTONSTATE message.

CPagerCtrl::RecalcSize

Causes the current pager control to recalculate the size of the contained window.

void RecalcSize();

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_RECALCSIZE message, which is described in the Windows SDK. Consequently, the pager control sends the PGN_CALCSIZE notification to obtain the scrollable dimensions of the contained window.

Example

The following example uses the CPagerCtrl::RecalcSize method to request the current pager control to recalculate its size.

void CCSplitButton_s2Dlg::OnXRecalcsize()
{
    // If the child control changes size, call RecalcSize() to change
    // the size of the pager control accordingly.
    m_pager.RecalcSize(); 
    MessageBox(_T("The pager control size has been recalculated."));
}

Example

The following example uses message reflection to enable the pager control to recalculate its own size instead of requiring the control's parent dialog to perform the calculation. The example derives the MyPagerCtrl class from the CPagerCtrl class, then uses a message map to associate the PGN_CALCSIZE notification with the OnCalcsize notification handler. In this example, the notification handler sets the width and height of the pager control to fixed values.

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyPagerCtrl, CPagerCtrl)
        ON_NOTIFY_REFLECT(PGN_CALCSIZE, &CMyPagerCtrl::OnCalcSize)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

// CMyPagerCtrl message handlers
void CMyPagerCtrl::OnCalcSize(NMHDR* code, LRESULT* param)
{
// If the control contained in the pager control changes size, use this
// handler to change the size of the pager control accordingly.

        LPNMPGCALCSIZE tmp = (LPNMPGCALCSIZE)code;
        *param = 0;
        tmp->iWidth = 500;
        tmp->iHeight = 50;
}

CPagerCtrl::SetBkColor

Sets the background color of the current pager control.

COLORREF SetBkColor(COLORREF clrBk);

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] clrBk A COLORREF value that contains the new background color of the pager control.

Return Value

A COLORREF value that contains the previous background color of the pager control.

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_SETBKCOLOR message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

Example

The following example uses the CPagerCtrl::SetBkColor method to set the background color of the pager control to red, and the CPagerCtrl::GetBkColor method to confirm that the change was made.

void CCSplitButton_s2Dlg::OnXColor()
{
    COLORREF originalColor;
    //  Set color to red.
    originalColor = m_pager.SetBkColor(RGB(255,0,0));
    if (m_pager.GetBkColor() != RGB(255,0,0))
    {
        MessageBox(_T("Control did not return RED as the previous color."));
    }
    // The following statement is one way to restore the color.
    // m_pager.SetBkColor( originalColor );
}

CPagerCtrl::SetBorder

Sets the border size of the current pager control.

int SetBorder(int iBorder);

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] iBorder The new border size, measured in pixels. If the iBorder parameter is negative, the border size is set to zero.

Return Value

The previous border size, measured in pixels.

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_SETBORDER message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

Example

The following example creates a pager control, then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetChild method to associate a very long button control with the pager control. The example then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetButtonSize method to set the height of the pager control to 20 pixels, and the CPagerCtrl::SetBorder method to set the border thickness to 1 pixel.

    // Initialize the dropdown menu of the splitbutton control.
    m_splitButton.SetDropDownMenu(IDR_MENU1, 0);

    // Create the pager control.
    BOOL nRet;
    CRect rect;
    GetClientRect(&rect);
    nRet = m_pager.Create(
        (WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | PGS_HORZ),
        CRect(rect.Width()/4, 5, (rect.Width() * 3)/4, 55),
        this,
        IDC_PAGER1); 

    m_pager.GetClientRect( &rect );
    nRet = m_button.Create(
        _T("This is a very, very long button. 012345678901234567890"), 
        (WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD), // Do not use CCS_NORESIZE.
        CRect(0,0,rect.Width(),30),

CPagerCtrl::SetButtonSize

Sets the button size of the current pager control.

int SetButtonSize(int iButtonSize);

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] iButtonSize The new button size, measured in pixels.

Return Value

The previous button size, measured in pixels.

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_SETBUTTONSIZE message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

If the pager control has the PGS_HORZ style, the button size determines the width of the pager buttons, and if the pager control has the PGS_VERT style, the button size determines the height of the pager buttons. The default button size is three-fourths of the width of the scroll bar, and the minimum button size is 12 pixels. For more information, see Pager Control Styles.

Example

The following example creates a pager control, then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetChild method to associate a very long button control with the pager control. The example then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetButtonSize method to set the height of the pager control to 20 pixels, and the CPagerCtrl::SetBorder method to set the border thickness to 1 pixel.

   // Initialize the dropdown menu of the splitbutton control.
    m_splitButton.SetDropDownMenu(IDR_MENU1, 0);

    // Create the pager control.
    BOOL nRet;
    CRect rect;
    GetClientRect(&rect);
    nRet = m_pager.Create(
        (WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | PGS_HORZ),
        CRect(rect.Width()/4, 5, (rect.Width() * 3)/4, 55),
        this,
        IDC_PAGER1); 

    m_pager.GetClientRect( &rect );
    nRet = m_button.Create(
        _T("This is a very, very long button. 012345678901234567890"),

Sets the contained window for the current pager control.

void SetChild(HWND hwndChild);

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] hwndChild Handle to the window to be contained.

Remarks

This method sends the PGM_SETCHILD message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

This method does not change the parent of the contained window; it only assigns a window handle to the pager control for scrolling. In most cases, the contained window will be a child window of the pager control.

Example

The following example creates a pager control, then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetChild method to associate a very long button control with the pager control. The example then uses the CPagerCtrl::SetButtonSize method to set the height of the pager control to 20 pixels, and the CPagerCtrl::SetBorder method to set the border thickness to 1 pixel.

    // Initialize the dropdown menu of the splitbutton control.
    m_splitButton.SetDropDownMenu(IDR_MENU1, 0);
