or
ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);

I'm currently using the cxSkinButton class and noticed some problems with it under VC++7. It's not a huge deal but kind of annoying. If I create a new project using the wizard and include the manifest the tool tips don't work 100%. They will show up but if I click a button the tool tip for that button doesn't come back. Also, if I hold my mouse over a button until the tool tip goes away it won't come back again either. I'm only able to get the tool tip to come back if I pop up an AfxMessageBox and then close it. If I create another new project without a manifest the tool tips work perfectly. Has anybody else had this problem? I'm not even adding anything into the manifest. It only contains the stuff that VC++ puts in there by default. I could just remove the manifest but then I'd lose the newer interface features like the rounded buttons etc. I guess I could just use the skin control and make them whatever I want anyway but I'd like to find away to make the tool tips work right with the manifest and cxSkinButton.

Hi scully12,
I have the same problem here with the lost tooltips, independent if I use the CxSkinButton class or simply the CButton class. So, CxSkinButton is not the reason why, it seems to be a general problem in VC++7 (the same sources built with VC++6 work perfectly, w/o the manifest, of course).
Did you find any solution in the meantime fro the issue?

Hi Bernd,
I never did find a solution. I ended up just removing the manifest and using it that way. I was hoping that it really was a bug in VC and it would get fixed eventually. It's good to hear that I'm not crazy though.

Hi scully12,
I have the same problem, I add some code at when the button losted focus.
//code :
if ( m_ctrlTooltip.m_hWnd != NULL )
m_ctrlTooltip.Pop();
//code end;
now, my button work fine!
sorry, my english was very pool

Thank you very much! This helped me fix a bug — tooltip didn't disappear when we moved the mouse pointer away from the button:
LRESULT CxSkinButton::OnMouseLeave(WPARAM, LPARAM)
{
if (m_tooltip.m_hWnd != NULL)
m_tooltip.Pop();
...

Hi!
I have a small improvement for the tooltip of a CxSkinButton. With this function you can colorize the tooltip as you want. The first COLORREF ist the text color, the second is the background color.
<br />
void CxSkinButton::SetToolTipColor(COLORREF crText, COLORREF crBkgnd)<br />
{<br />
if(m_tooltip.m_hWnd != NULL)<br />
{<br />
if(crText != NULL )<br />
m_tooltip.SetTipTextColor(crText);<br />
<br />
if(crBkgnd != NULL)<br />
m_tooltip.SetTipBkColor(crBkgnd);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
Perhaps someone will have use for it...
bye...

Thank you. Maybe it's time to update the article

Sorry, I made a small mistake in the 'SetToolTipColor' function.
If you check the COLORREF for not NULL you can't set the COLORREF to #000000 (black).
So the correct code is:
void CxSkinButton::SetToolTipColor(COLORREF crText, COLORREF crBkgnd)
{
if(m_tooltip.m_hWnd != NULL)
{
m_tooltip.SetTipTextColor(crText);
m_tooltip.SetTipBkColor(crBkgnd);
}
}
Here is another small function for the compensation of my bug
Call this function if you have enough of those colorized tooltips...
void CxSkinButton::ResetToolTipColor()
{
if(m_tooltip.m_hWnd != NULL)
{
m_tooltip.SetTipTextColor(GetSysColor(COLOR_INFOTEXT));
m_tooltip.SetTipBkColor(GetSysColor(COLOR_INFOBK));
}
} The function will set the tooltip text and background color to the system default.

Hi,
I've added a multiple line support for scinned buttons. The method CxSkinButton::DrawItem looks
now like follows:
void CxSkinButton::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDrawItemStruct)
{
ASSERT (lpDrawItemStruct);
//TRACE("* Captured: %08X\n", ::GetCapture());
//Check if the button state in not in inconsistent mode...
POINT mouse_position;
if ((m_button_down) && (::GetCapture() == m_hWnd) && (::GetCursorPos(&mouse_position))){
if (::WindowFromPoint(mouse_position) == m_hWnd){
if ((GetState() & BST_PUSHED) != BST_PUSHED) {
//TRACE("* Inconsistency up detected! Fixing.\n");
SetState(TRUE);
return;
}
} else {
if ((GetState() & BST_PUSHED) == BST_PUSHED) {
//TRACE("* Inconsistency up detected! Fixing.\n");
SetState(FALSE);
return;
}
}
}
CString sCaption;
CDC *pDC = CDC::FromHandle(lpDrawItemStruct->hDC); // get device context
RECT r=lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem; // context rectangle
int cx = r.right - r.left ; // get width
int cy = r.bottom - r.top ; // get height
// get text box position
RECT tr={r.left+m_FocusRectMargin+2,r.top,r.right-m_FocusRectMargin-2,r.bottom};
//R.K. 07.03.03 New values for multi-line support
RECT rectsave = tr;
int hsize;
int iret;
GetWindowText(sCaption); // get button text
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
// Select the correct skin
if (lpDrawItemStruct->itemState & ODS_DISABLED){ // DISABLED BUTTON
if(m_bDisabled.m_hObject==NULL)
// no skin selected for disabled state -> standard button
pDC->FillSolidRect(&r,GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE));
else // paint the skin

pDC->SetTextColor(GetSysColor(COLOR_3DHILIGHT));
//RK pDC->DrawText(sCaption,&tr,DT_SINGLELINE|DT_VCENTER|DT_CENTER);

Hope this is helpful.

Hi,
I tried your version of multiline, but in the demo-version, it shows de radiobuttons and checkboxes aren't properly displayed anymore. What I mean is that they seem to "forget" there checked status.
For normal pushbuttons, it works, but only when checking the "multiline"-option in the resource-properties of the multiline-button.
Have you noticed this problem also? Any idea how to solve it?
Greetz,
Peggy

I have a set of buttons on my dialog. I've implemented a resize button class that inherits from CxResizeButton and uses SetWindowPos to set the dialog's size.
The dialog also has a layout manager I wrote that monitors onSize and repositions the buttons and other controls.
If I don't enable WS_CLIPCHILDREN I get lots of flickering, which is logical since the entire background is redraw and so are the masked buttons I have on it. If I enable this style, There is no flickering during resizing, but for some reason the buttons don't display correctly. From what I've managed to figure, the mask is scaled 1 extra pixel to the left of the button, creating a vertical line that has a buggy display instead of displaying the background image.
any idea why this happens ?
thanks for your time guys

Hi,
thanks for very good works.
BoundsCheck report that an error at the
SelectClipRgn((HDC)GetDC(), hClipRgn);
which the HDC is not valid.
I change the (HDC)GetDC() to GetDC()->m_hDC
this time the SelectClipRgn just return an
ERROR if you change it to:
if(SelectClipRgn(GetDC()->m_hDC, hClipRgn)==ERROR)
AfxMessageBox("ERROR");
it seems that some thing is wrong with the
hClipRgn.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks

Dear All,
I well appreciated your program (CxSkinButton) and I like it a lot espacially the interaction between the mouse and the check box (eyes with different color ; blue eye, red eye and gray eye). In your code, you are using for each check box different bitmap with the same size. I would like kindly ask you 2 questions :
1- How can I use a bitmap bigger than that used in your code ( I want to use a bitmap that has a size bigger than IDB_EYERED, IDB_EYEBLU or IDB_EYEGRAY.....) ?
2- When running the executable file of your code, How can I switch blue eye with red eye by clicking somewhere and without clicking on the check box ?
Thanks a lot for your help

Hi,
first, thank you for the class.
Second, Visual Studio reported a memory leak to me at line 227 and 237 in function DrawBitmap, when you delete the previously created compatible DC. I changed the code to call the CDC member function DeleteDC and everything is fine now
< DeleteDC(dcMask);
> dcMask.DeleteDC();
< DeleteDC(dcBmp);
> dcBmp.DeleteDC();

pleas help me
I'm quite new to vc++ 6.0, i can see the CxSkinButton class, but it dosent shows ...
I kan do work with classes and objects, but that Class Wizard is complicated
"Create (or edit) a member variable for each button you want to customize as CxSkinButton. If the Class Wizard doesn't show the CxSkinButton type, select CButton and then edit the code manually."
please help me, thx

Maybe you are here:
cxskinwzd.jpg (32.8 Kb)
Use CButton as variable type and click Ok, then open the header where the button
has been declared and replace CButton m_button1; with
CxSkinButton <br />
m_button1;
|
|
|
|
|
thanks man, that was the problem, i couldnt find the object definition m_button in the header files ... now is solved
you are so kind, I have an another question to you, why all these Control IDs no longer in use (IDC_...) cant be removed directly from the Class Wizard, what is the meaning that doing that manually and deleting them from the Resource.h ?
thx allot Davide

and with the View\Resource Symbols... menu?

I am using this class as the child of a CFrameWnd derived class and the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI() handlers that I have set are not getting called.
Does anyone know why?
Thanks.
