Remarks

The CMFCMenuButton class is derived from the CMFCButton Class which is, in turn, derived from the CButton Class. Therefore, you can use CMFCMenuButton in your code the same way you would use CButton.

When you create a CMFCMenuButton, you must pass in a handle to the associated pop-up menu. Next, call the function CMFCMenuButton::SizeToContent. CMFCMenuButton::SizeToContent checks that the button size is sufficient to include an arrow that points to the location where the pop-up window will appear - namely, underneath or to the right of the button.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to set the handle of the menu attached to the button, resize the button according to its text and image size, and set the pop-up menu that is displayed by the framework. This code snippet is part of the New Controls sample.

    CMFCMenuButton m_btnMenu;


...


    // CMenu m_menu
    m_btnMenu.m_hMenu = m_menu.GetSubMenu(0)->GetSafeHmenu();
    m_btnMenu.SizeToContent();
    // set to FALSE so that the framework calls CContextMenuManager::TrackPopupMenu 
    // to display its menu
    m_btnMenu.m_bOSMenu = FALSE;
