My Status Bar Issue. Need Help.

Hi,

Good day.

I got a problem about My Status bar.
Current Capture: attached Tool.jpg.
When i changed the size of my window. The Status bar can't move...
Issue Capture: attached too Tool1.jpg.

I add the code at my resource file.

Any help will be appreciated.



AppResource.rc

Code:

---

        EDITTEXT        IDC_VIEW_SESSION_NAME,6,297,301,11,WS_DISABLED

---

AppDlg.cpp
// The Tree Control right at top of the my Status Bar.

Code:

---

CRect MyAppDlg::GetTreeRect()
{
        CRect rect, rectHead;
        GetClientRect(&rect);

        rectHead.left = static_cast<int>(rect.left + rect.Width() * 0.02);
        rectHead.top = static_cast<int>(rect.top + 95);
        rectHead.right = static_cast<int>(rect.left + rect.Width() * 0.98);
        rectHead.bottom = static_cast<int>(rect.top + rect.Height() * 0.95);
               
        return rectHead;

}

Can you post your OnSize() handler?

Code:

---


void MyAppDlg::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy)
{
        if(m_bInit == true)
        {
               
                m_TreeCommand.MoveWindow(GetTreeRect(), TRUE);
        }

        Invalidate();

        CDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
        if ( !IsWindowVisible() )
                return;
}

Thanks a lot.

I can't see the code where you move the status window (only the Treeview).

Is the status bar a child of the dialog or the treeview? (appears to be treeview where it should be the Dialig, or CMainFrame if you want the MFC OnSize to auto handle the resize).

@novacain, thank you.

Acturally, The status bar added by mysel. TreeView is a existed Controlor for my Application.
I think i want to handle my Status bar with the CMainFrame.

I don't want to add some status bar code in the TreeView controlor.

But i don't know how to...

You need to write a resize handler for the status bar (similar to the one you have for the Treeview).

Make the Status bar a child and a member variable of the MainApp (just like the Treeview).

Call both the size handlers (Treeview and Status bar) in the main apps OnSize().

Is there a reason you aren't using the CStatusBar class?

@novacain. Thanks a lot for your guide. I would try it right now.

@DaveH. Thank you too. Yes, i still didn't use the CStatusBar class. I plan to learn it soon.

CStatusBar will have the functionality you are looking for, built into the class. Less headaches, but there is a lot of value in doing things yourself.
