So i'm assuming they don't use the default windows menus and if they do I want to know how they do it... Cheers!

I have some edit boxes and other controls on the dialog that need to go on top of the image but when it gets painted the images is painted over them. I have tried sending a WM_PAINT message to the controls but this doesn't work. Any ideas? Thank you, Susan Re: Painting controls Hans Ruck28-Mar-02 22:55 Hans Ruck 28-Mar-02 22:55  Put an image control on the dialog. Then change the tab order as the control to become the first; resize it from code to fill the entire dialog box area and associate the bitmap to it. Good luck! rechi Re: Painting controls Jack Handy28-Mar-02 23:13 Jack Handy 28-Mar-02 23:13  Try handling the WM_ERASEBKGND message instead of OnPaint() -Jack To an optimist the glass is half full. To a pessimist the glass is half empty. To a programmer the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Re: Painting controls Bernhard29-Mar-02 0:13 Bernhard 29-Mar-02 0:13  by the way.. i don't think that you normally force redrawing of anything in mfc with sending WM_PAINT - messages to the window.. you normally Invalidate that window (controls are windows too).. then it is forced to redraw itself. m_edit.Invalidate(); i am no expert, but i think this is the proper MFC way. Bernhard Sometimes I think the surest sign for intelligent life elsewhere in the universe is that none of them ever tried to contact us. Re: Painting controls Paul M Watt29-Mar-02 5:11 Paul M Watt 29-Mar-02 5:11  Make sure that you have the CS_CLIPCHILDREN style set for your dialog. When you ask for a DC for that window, it will automatically clip the children rectangles from where you are allowed to paint, and you will no longer paint over your controls. You can set this style for your dialog after it has been created by doing this: LONG lStyle = ::GetClassLong(hDlg, GCL_STYLE); lStyle |= CS_CLIPCHILDREN; ::SetClassLong(hDlg, GCL_STYLE, lStyle); By the way, you should paint the bitmap in the WM_ERASEBKGND message instead. This will reduce any flicker that may appear, and it is a fundamentally better place to perform that action. WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window Hans Ruck28-Mar-02 21:36 Hans Ruck 28-Mar-02 21:36  I've created a dialog based application and i've put a WebBrowser control inside. The application fails to create the dialog and i would like to know how to fix the bug. rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window ColinDavies28-Mar-02 21:45 ColinDavies 28-Mar-02 21:45  Can you be a bit more specific ? bogdan_rechi wrote: The application fails to create the dialog Is it in the main dialog or what ?

The execution of dlg.DoModal(), where dlg is the main dialog, simply has no effect. rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window alex.barylski28-Mar-02 23:24 alex.barylski 28-Mar-02 23:24  When you created your app using appWizard (i'll assume) did you specify ActiveX controls...? Did you add the control as an activeX control...? "An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes in his or her field" - Niels Bohr Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window Hans Ruck28-Mar-02 23:35 Hans Ruck 28-Mar-02 23:35  No, i didn't specify "ActiveX controls". Meanwhile the application has grown and i have to add the control without the wizard's support. rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window alex.barylski28-Mar-02 23:40 alex.barylski 28-Mar-02 23:40  Thats probably whats causing your problems than. It's not too much work to add activeX support though. Create a small test app WITH activeX support and just find the functions. AfxOleInit or something I think similar to this...probably a few more things too. Cheers!

The only difference i found is "#include afxdisp.h" in stdafx.h, which has no effect in my current application. It has to be something else. rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window alex.barylski28-Mar-02 23:52 alex.barylski 28-Mar-02 23:52  It's always a pain to add options like ActiveX after the project has been created. I would suggest using app wizard..much quicker and easier. Create a new project using AcitveX controls and just copy your old code over into the new project. Cheers! "An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes in his or her field" - Niels Bohr Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window Hans Ruck29-Mar-02 0:00 Hans Ruck 29-Mar-02 0:00  Unfortunately, this seems to be the only option for the moment. Thanks! rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window alex.barylski29-Mar-02 2:43 alex.barylski 29-Mar-02 2:43  If nothing else is working...you might as well and see if it helps... This can be a pain in the a$$ I know...especially if your like me and you modify and remove all that MFC junk comment shite. However consider yourself lucky your not in dos and take full advantage of the windows clipboard. Lemme know how it turns out...i'm curious to know if thats whats wrong. Cheers! "An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes in his or her field" - Niels Bohr Re: Problem solved Hans Ruck29-Mar-02 0:22 Hans Ruck 29-Mar-02 0:22  When i created the test application i missed the line AfxEnableControlContainer(); in the application's InitInstance() method. Adding this will make the stuff just "running like hell". rechi Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window Matt Newman29-Mar-02 3:32 Matt Newman 29-Mar-02 3:32  There is a addin (at least under VC++ 6 there is) Project - Add To Project - Components and Controls In the Visual C++ Components folder find ActiveX Control Containment Component This should make your WebBrowser work. - Matt Newman / Anti-Linux Activist -Sonork ID: 100.11179:BestSnowman † Re: WebBrowser control doesn't work in dialog window Jeremy Pullicino30-Apr-02 3:09 Jeremy Pullicino 30-Apr-02 3:09  To fix this problem I dynamically create (using the new operator) the web browser control member variable in my OnInitDialog() This fixes the problem for me.
