It's a long time since I've done this in MFC...

I made a custom toolbar class for a tool dialog, to which I've added some slider controls for various parameters. Now, in the dialog I want to know when the slider values are altered. How do I get at the CSlider events? (The CSlider is a child of the CToolbar, which is a member of the CDialog).

What I have tried:

I've tried remembering and Googling :)

Look at the base class that your class inherits and see what notification events it generates.

So, the slider controls call OnHScroll in the toolbar - I simply have to repackage that message and send it on to the parent (the dialog) using SendMessage - easy! ;)
