Introduction

When I looked for articles about XPStyle Toolbar in WTL, I noticed that there is only version of MFC. Because I am doing my project in WTL, I needed to find some good MFC sample so that I can convert it into WTL version. Thanks to Bruno Podetti, I found out that his code sample pretty much nicely fits my needs.

Although Bruno Podetti has done several brilliant jobs, I paid attention to XPStyle Toolbar only because I did not have enough time to do it.

Implementation is so simple, that you folks can catch up easily.

• Updated: Mar 15, 2004 Application at XP Platform :: background color modified, hot status image drawing routine modified, making subclassing simpler.
• Updated: Mar 23, 2004 Modified for XP Platform :: ToolTip problem solved.
• Updated: Apr 6, 2004 - Added MenuBar and StatusBar Feature, Combined with the XPStyle ToolBar.

Codes - such as menubar, status bar - are taken from other articles in CodeProject.

MenuBar was taken from the MenuXP (in WTL) source on CodeProject, and XPStyle StatusBar was taken from source in CodeProject and I modified it a bit.

Special thanks to the authors of these articles.
