That was my first thought, but Ctrl+X is reserved for Cut operations, which would fill the clipboard. I want the users to be able to clear the control and still have tho option of pasting anything they may have previously copied.

I have used Ctrl+D for now, but I was wondering if there was any national standard as with Cut, Copy and Paste.

Sorry, my post was a bad attempt at humour. The "just in case" was supposed to mean "so that we can paste it back in case we did not really want to delete it". Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Seriuosly, Shft + Ctrl + X is a bit too much keys to my taste. I find Ctrl + D better. My 2 cents.

haha, man I must be way too tired if I didn't notice that. I would agree Ctrl+D is better. At the moment I will leave it as it is and look further into the Richedit hotkeys. I don't want to have to many over-rides.

OpenGL & MFC & setfocus

I have a program where i have created an openGL window within an MFC Dialog using a tutorial on http://steinsoft.net . I have buttons on the Dialog which i want to use to rotate and move (translate) some objects that i have drawn.

I implemented some code from http://nehe.gamedev.net/data/lessons/lesson.asp?lesson=10[^] to allow me to move around the objects.

The code seems to be almost correct, but there seems to be a problem with the focus, coz something is stealing the focus, and thus the events are not getting executed properly.

Could someone please tell me how to get around this.

Your help would be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance

If you need my project to look at it for further clarification, you could post your meail address here and i'll mail it to you...

Since i would like the rotation and translation to happen either by pressing buttons or key-presses, i have the following code: (NB: Without the message boxes it doesn't work, but with them ... it seems to send the focus back to the correct control - which i'm not too sure whether it's the dialog itself or the GLWindow within the dialog)

BOOL COpenGLMFCDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg) <br />
{<br />
	/*WORKS<br />
	if( pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN && (pMsg->wParam == VK_DIVIDE || pMsg->wParam == VK_DELETE) ){<br />
		m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("Another Event fired");<br />
		AfxMessageBox("Testing");<br />
	*/<br />
<br />
	if (pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN)<br />
	{<br />
		if (pMsg->wParam == VK_RIGHT){	//Right button<br />
			//m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("One More Event fired");<br />
			openGLControl.myRightButton = true;<br />
			//::MessageBox(0,"One more Event fired","My fired Event",MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_SYSTEMMODAL|MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
			m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("Right fired"+(CString)(openGLControl.yRotation));<br />
		}<br />
<br />
		if (pMsg->wParam == VK_LEFT){	//Left Button<br />
			//m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("One More Event fired");<br />
			openGLControl.myLeftButton = true;<br />
			::MessageBox(0,"One more Event fired","My fired Event",MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_SYSTEMMODAL|MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
		}<br />
		<br />
		if (pMsg->wParam == VK_UP){	//UP Button<br />
			//m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("One More Event fired");<br />
			openGLControl.myUpButton = true;<br />
			::MessageBox(0,"Up Event Fired","Up Event",MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_SYSTEMMODAL|MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
		}<br />
<br />
		if (pMsg->wParam == VK_DOWN){	//Down Button<br />
			//m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("One More Event fired");<br />
			//::MessageBox(0,"One more Event fired","My fired Event",MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_SYSTEMMODAL|MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
			openGLControl.myDownButton = true;<br />
		}<br />
		if (pMsg->wParam == VK_PRIOR){	//PageUp Button<br />
			//m_Txt_ObjectTypeName.SetWindowText("One More Event fired");<br />

			//::MessageBox(0,"One more Event fired","My fired Event",MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_SYSTEMMODAL|MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
			openGLControl.myPageDownButton = true;<br />
<br />
		}<br />
<br />
	}<br />
	//return TRUE;<br />
	return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);<br />
}

Above was the code for keypresses... now for the buttons events code

void COpenGLMFCDlg::OnCmdUp() <br />
{<br />
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here<br />
	openGLControl.myUpButton = true;<br />
  	::MessageBox(0,"Up Button Event Fired"/*+(CString)yRotation*/,"Move Forwards",MB_OK|MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
	<br />
}<br />
<br />
void COpenGLMFCDlg::OnCmdRight() <br />
{<br />
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here<br />
	<br />
	openGLControl.myRightButton = true;<br />
	/*<br />
	openGLControl.yRotation += 20.0f;<br />
<br />
	*/<br />
<br />
   	::MessageBox(0,"Right Button Event Fired"/*+(CString)yRotation*/,"Turn Right",MB_OK|MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
void COpenGLMFCDlg::OnCmdLeft() <br />
{<br />
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here<br />
	openGLControl.myLeftButton = true;<br />
  	::MessageBox(0,"Left Button Event Fired"/*+(CString)yRotation*/,"Turn Left",MB_OK|MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
	<br />
}<br />
<br />
void COpenGLMFCDlg::OnCmdDown() <br />
{<br />
	// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here<br />
	openGLControl.myDownButton = true;<br />
  	::MessageBox(0,"Down Button Event Fired"/*+(CString)yRotation*/,"Move backwards",MB_OK|MB_ICONINFORMATION |MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY);<br />
<br />
	<br />
}

This is the onPaint() function

void COpenGLControl::OnPaint() <br />
{	<br />
	// Draw objects with polygon offset.	//So as to get the outlines<br />
	/**/<br />
	glEnable( GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILL );<br />
		glPolygonOffset( 1.0, 1.0 );<br />
		//DrawObjects();<br />
		DrawGLScene();<br />
	glDisable( GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILL );<br />
<br />
	// Draw smooth anti-aliased outline over polygons.<br />
	glEnable( GL_BLEND );<br />
	glEnable( GL_LINE_SMOOTH );<br />
	glBlendFunc( GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA );<br />
	glPolygonMode( GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE );<br />
		DrawGLScene();<br />
	glPolygonMode( GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_FILL );<br />
	glDisable( GL_LINE_SMOOTH );<br />
	glDisable( GL_BLEND );<br />
	/**/<br />
<br />
	//DrawGLScene();<br />
	<br />
	CWnd::OnPaint();<br />
	myRightButton = false;<br />
	myLeftButton = false;<br />
	// Do not call CWnd::OnPaint() for painting messages<br />
}

I think the issue is something to do with the focus being lost somewhere to some control. onPaint an drawGLscene are in the OpenGLControl functions

Hope this helps...

Any ideas why this code crashes with 799 elements or more but it works with 699 or less? I haven't found yet the limit.

<code>#include <malloc.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    /*1000 elements for the array*/
    int n = 699;

    /* Dynamic array */
    int* array = (int*) malloc(sizeof(char) * n);
    if (!array)
    {
        printf("Out of memory");
        return 1;
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        array[i] = i;
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)

Your array variable is a pointer to int's but you're only allocating enough memory for n char's. char's are smaller than int's so you're running past the end of the memory you've allocated.

Hi,

I'm using a CButton as a check box in my application.
The background of the window on which this button "sits" is white.
When the check box is created it has a grey background no its rect.

Do you know how to control the background color?
Thanks.

Do you have an alternative?

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
