Anonymous25-Oct-02 6:00 Anonymous 25-Oct-02 6:00  Hi, when I make a shortcut to my application and choose a different icon, explorer shows me all icons from my resource. I want only 1 or two icons being possible for the explorer, how? Thanks for your help! Re: Don't show all resource icons in explorer?

Appreciate your help, ns Re: htmlhelp question Ravi Bhavnani25-Oct-02 7:02 Ravi Bhavnani 25-Oct-02 7:02  Try specifying the fully qualified filespec (eg: C:\SomeDir\ice.chm). In general, it's a good idea to always use fully qualified filespecs, since you can never rely on the default directory. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: htmlhelp question Atlantys25-Oct-02 7:06 Atlantys 25-Oct-02 7:06  Ravi Bhavnani wrote: use fully qualified filespecs or just find out the directory that the exe is running in (::GetModuleFileName) and then use relatve paths. Re: htmlhelp question Ravi Bhavnani25-Oct-02 7:13 Ravi Bhavnani 25-Oct-02 7:13  GetModuleFilename will certainly allow you to determine the app's directory and therefore create a fully qualified filespec. But it's not an alternative, as the word "or" implied! /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: htmlhelp question Atlantys25-Oct-02 8:20 Atlantys 25-Oct-02 8:20  Ravi Bhavnani wrote: But it's not an alternative, as the word "or" implied! True enough, but I understood your response to mean "hard-code the fully qualified path" (ie: "C:\mydir\myfile.chm"), instead of a concat-ed string from GetModuleFileName values. either way, I think the question has been answered. Re: htmlhelp question Ravi Bhavnani25-Oct-02 9:32 Ravi Bhavnani 25-Oct-02 9:32  Actually "C:\mydir\myfile.chm" is not a valid filespec. either way, I think the question has been answered I couldn't agree more. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Bad topic id?

TOC does display my chm. Also the book had neglected to mention one vital step so I was getting only 1 pane. I persisted in comparing their finished project with the one I step-followed, and found the omission. I now have three panes. Onto more explorations... Appreciate your help, ns Re: Bad topic id?

So i can't resize it with mouse dragging the borders and the corners. I want to add this feature and this is the problem. Can any one help me ?? Also please tell me about the messages generated while the window size is changed by mouse from the corners and sides. I mean what are the lparam and wparam walues when the window is dragged from left, right, up, down, and corners. Re: Window resizing using mouse Maximilien25-Oct-02 6:09 Maximilien 25-Oct-02 6:09  When the window have a border, the non-client area receives the messages ... CWnd::OnNcMouseMove // WM_NCMOUSEMOVE CWnd::OnNcHitTest // WM_NCHITTEST ... since your window doesn't have a border, you will have to simulate the non-client message, and use the WM_LBUTTONDOWN WM_MOUSEMOVE WM_LBUTTONUP (among others) to manage the resizing of your window, sending WM_SIZE, WM_SIZING, and other messages. Max. Re: Window resizing using mouse Paul M Watt25-Oct-02 8:09 Paul M Watt 25-Oct-02 8:09  The WM_NCHITTEST message is sent before every mouse message, that is how windows knows whether it is dealing with a normal mouse message or a non-client mouse message. By simply overriding the default behavior for WM_NCHITTEST, and returning a NC message value, windows will generate the WM_NCMOUSExxx messages.

Re: Window resizing using mouse Paul M Watt25-Oct-02 8:06 Paul M Watt 25-Oct-02 8:06  You will need to override the WM_NCHITTEST message. When you reach the area of the window that you would like to be condidered the border for resizing, simply return HT_LEFT, HT_TOP, HT_TOPLEFT etc depending on the circumstance. When you return one of these values, the DefWndProc mechanism will start the resizing process for you.

Re: Window resizing using mouse Maximilien25-Oct-02 8:21 Maximilien 25-Oct-02 8:21  Cool , I really did'nt exactly know that! Max. Re: Window resizing using mouse Paul M Watt25-Oct-02 8:50 Paul M Watt 25-Oct-02 8:50  I learned a lot about this stuff when I emulated the entire mouse processing logic over a remote connection. I found that every time a mouse message is called, there is a WM_NCHITTEST / WM_SETCURSOR pair that gets generated right before the WM_MOUSExxx message is processed. The WM_NCHITTEST message is used to determine which type of message to send, non-client or normal, and the WM_SETCURSOR message is used to update the cursor as it moves over different regions of the windows display. I have thought about writing an article about this whole process for CodeProject, but I am not sure how many people are still interested in learning the internals of Windows. Another interesting message sequence is the chain of messages that is generated by the default message handler for WM_SYSCOMMAND.

Re: Window resizing using mouse 6545645625-Oct-02 9:32 65456456 25-Oct-02 9:32  But why the following is not working for a very simple dialog box app: UINT CSasaDlg::OnNcHitTest(CPoint point) { UINT hittest = CDialog::OnNcHitTest(point); switch(hittest) { case HTRIGHT: AfxMessageBox("Hurray! you click right side"); } return hittest; } Re: Window resizing using mouse Paul M Watt25-Oct-02 10:11 Paul M Watt 25-Oct-02 10:11  Because you will not get a HTRIGHT status for a dialog with a non-resizable border. You will only get the HTRIGHT, HTLEFT, HTTOP, HTBOTTOM and all of the combinations in between for a window with a resizable border. If you change the HTRIGHT to HTBORDER, you will see it work.

CListCtrl and SetTextColor Richard Hudson25-Oct-02 5:18 Richard Hudson 25-Oct-02 5:18  Does anyone know the answer to this one. I have a CListCtrl and I want to make the rows different colours. Can I do this without making it Owner draw? i.e just using SetTextColor When I insert the items at the moment, all of them are the same colour even though I make multiple calls to the SetTextColor function with different RGB value. Please could someone help. Really appreciate it. Richard Re: CListCtrl and SetTextColor Maximilien25-Oct-02 5:32 Maximilien 25-Oct-02 5:32  You have to use owner draw, SetTextColor works for the whole list, there's no item index parameter. it's not that hard to use owner draw, if you only want to change the color of an item. There might be someone who already create a CListCtrl derived control that do that, did you check here on CodeProject ? Max. Re: CListCtrl and SetTextColor Richard Hudson25-Oct-02 5:37 Richard Hudson 25-Oct-02 5:37  Thanx Max. I have done owner draw many times. This is a simple app and I thought I could get away from owner draw. I just wanted to know for sure. Anyway thanks for ur time. Richard Re: CListCtrl and SetTextColor Michael Dunn25-Oct-02 20:34 Michael Dunn 25-Oct-02 20:34  You can do that with custom draw (not the same as owner draw). I have an article on custom draw here in the list control section. --Mike-- "I'd rather you just give me a fish today, because even if you teach me how to fish, I won't do it.
