Hi,

I posted in ur site regarding providing tooltips to the ToolbarCtrl & u gave me an answer.Tried it out but still have some trouble.

Would be nice if you could help me out here.

In the Project,Under the "TabTypes" folder there is the "C_ListPageTemp"
file where Iam creating the toolbar using the "CreateToolBar()"
function.

For the tooltips, I added the
ON_NOTIFY_EX(TTN_NEEDTEXTA,0,ToolTipsHandler), in my message handler &
implemeted the "ToolTipsHandler" as well.

Could anyone show me how to implement the "ToolTipsHandler" function in
the right way so that,I could see some tooltips.

Thanks...

You have to assign idCommand values for your toolbar buttons.
Before that make entries for those IDs in the string table.

        tb[0].fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
        // Setting button style
        tb[0].fsStyle = TBSTYLE_BUTTON;
        tb[0].dwData = 0;
        tb[0].iString = NULL;
        tb[0].idCommand = IDC_CALL_ONE;


        // Index of new button image.
        tb[1].iBitmap = 1;
        // Setting button state
        tb[1].fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
        // Setting button style
        tb[1].fsStyle = TBSTYLE_BUTTON;
        tb[1].dwData = 0;
        tb[1].iString = NULL;
        tb[1].idCommand = IDC_CALL_TWO;


        // Index of new button image.
        tb[2].iBitmap = 2;
        // Setting button state
        tb[2].fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
        // Setting button style
        tb[2].fsStyle = TBSTYLE_BUTTON;
        tb[2].dwData = 0;
        tb[2].iString = NULL;
        tb[2].idCommand = IDC_CALL_THREE;

            // Index of new button image.
        tb[3].iBitmap = 3;
        // Setting button state
        tb[3].fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
        // Setting button style
        tb[3].fsStyle = TBSTYLE_BUTTON;
        tb[3].dwData = 0;
        tb[3].idCommand = IDC_CALL_FOUR;
        tb[3].iString = NULL;


Add this code to your hitshandler function

        TOOLTIPTEXT *pTTT = (TOOLTIPTEXT *)pNMHDR;
        UINT nID =pNMHDR->idFrom;
        pTTT->lpszText = MAKEINTRESOURCE(nID);
        return TRUE;

Hi,

Regarding my post "ToolbarCtrl tooltip problem",Have 1 more question on it.

I tried to move the toolbarctrl to the right of my Dialog(which is now at the topleft corner of the dialog),So Inside my "CreateToolBar" function did something as follows.

CRect rcParent;
GetClientRect(&rcParent); m_toolBarCtrl->MoveWindow(rcParent.left+500,20,300,50);


But the toolbarCtrl still remains at the topleftcorner of the dialog.

Thanks...

Got it working.Provided "CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC" while creating toolbarCtrl......:)
