Remarks

A CMFCToolbarButton object is a control that resides on a toolbar. Its behavior resembles that of an ordinary button. You can assign an image and a text label to this object. A toolbar button can also have a command ID. When the user clicks the toolbar button, the framework executes the command that this ID specifies.

Typically, toolbar buttons can be customized: the user can drag buttons from one toolbar to another, and copy, paste, delete, and edit text labels and images. To prevent the user from customizing the toolbar, you can lock the toolbar in one of two ways. Either set the bLocked flag to TRUE when you call CMFCToolBar::LoadToolBar, or add the command ID of an individual button to the global list of protected commands by using the CMFCToolBarButton::SetProtectedCommands method.

CMFCToolBarButton objects display images from the global collections of toolbar images in the application. These collections are maintained by the parent toolbar, CMFCToolBar Class. For more information, see CMFCToolBarImages Class.

When the user clicks a toolbar button, its parent toolbar processes the mouse message and communicates the appropriate actions to the button. If the button has a valid command ID, the parent toolbar sends the WM_COMMAND message to the parent frame.

The CMFCToolBarButton class is the base class for other toolbar button classes, such as CMFCToolBarMenuButton Class, CMFCToolBarEditBoxButton Class, and CMFCToolBarComboBoxButton Class.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to configure a CMFCToolBarButton object by using various methods in the CMFCToolBarButton class. The example illustrates how to enable the mouse and keyboard input, set the image index of the button, set the bounding rectangle of the button, and make the button visible. This code snippet is part of the Tab Control sample.

    CMFCToolBarButton* pOffice2007 = NULL;
    int nIndex = -1;
    
    for (UINT uiCmd = ID_VIEW_APPLOOK_2007_1; uiCmd <= ID_VIEW_APPLOOK_2007_4; uiCmd++)
    {
        // CMFCToolBar  m_wndToolBarTheme
        nIndex = m_wndToolBarTheme.CommandToIndex (uiCmd);

        CMFCToolBarButton* pButton = m_wndToolBarTheme.GetButton (nIndex);
    
        if (pButton != NULL)
        {
            pOffice2007 = pButton;
            break;
        }
    }
 pOffice2007->EnableWindow();
    pOffice2007->SetImage(1);
    pOffice2007->SetRect( CRect(1,1,1,1));
    pOffice2007->SetVisible();
    pOffice2007->Show(true);

CMFCToolBarButton::ResetImageToDefault

Sets to the default value the image that is associated with the button.

virtual void ResetImageToDefault();

Remarks

This method retrieves the default image from its parent toolbar by using the CMFCToolBar::GetDefaultImage method. If the button has no associated default image, this method sets the text label of the button according to its string resource by using the CStringT::LoadString method. For more information about string resources, see Working with Resource Files.

This method does nothing if the button has a user-defined image.

CMFCToolBarButton::SaveBarState

Saves the state of the toolbar button.

virtual void SaveBarState();

Remarks

The framework calls this method when it creates a CMFCToolBarButton object as the result of a drag-and-drop operation.

CMFCToolBarButton::Show

Shows or hides the button.

void Show(BOOL bShow);

Parameters

[in] bShow
A Boolean value that specifies whether to show or hide the button. If this parameter is TRUE, the button is shown. If the parameter is FALSE, the button is hidden.

Remarks

The framework calls this method to update the visibility of toolbar buttons when their parent toolbar is resized. The framework calls this method with bShow set to FALSE when the button no longer fits within the bounds of the toolbar. The framework calls this method with bShow set to TRUE when after resizing the button again fits within the bounds of the toolbar.

Use the CMFCToolBarButton::SetVisible method to set the general visibility of the button.

This method calls the CMFCToolBarButton::OnShow method after it updates the visibility state of the button.
